Lynds Fruit Farm - First of September

Jack's decision to come a week ahead of schedule helped us make it to Lynd's fruit farm this year to pick Gala apples. We started this last year with the boys and I had hoped it would remain an annual tradition our family could do. When we learned Jack would be born late summer/early fall I wondered how many things we would be able to do this year with a newborn. So far we haven't had to skip anything. Jack was home less than a week and we loaded everyone up and headed to the orchard. Most of the time I stayed in the car w/ Jack while the boys and Tad did the picking. We didn't get as many this year b/c of the crop as well as our schedule, but that's alright everyone still had fun.

Jack surprised us about a week early and was born August 27th at 7:16 am. He was 6 lbs. 14 oz. We were blessed w/ family so close to help. Tad had 2 1/2 weeks off work and my mom and brother have been here to help too. We were fortunate to have my sister n law Stephanie fly in to town for a week. Finding time to blog or even post pictures is a challenge. We have all adjusted to a family of 5. It seems much easier this time around. Jack is a very laid back baby. He never gets too upsets and he eats and sleeps really well. Jack's arrival came at the time when the boys were starting school and starting soccer. They keep us busy. Jack just goes along for the ride- this place and that. We just had Jack to his 2 month appointment this week. He is already 10 lbs. 5 oz (10th %ile) and 24 in. long (90th %ile).
