So, we’ve been misplacing things lately. Most notably, we have lost two credit cards and a therapeutic wrist brace. We’ve looked everywhere and they are nowhere to be found. Very strange.

This morning, I think we cracked the case. We noticed that Kaya has learned to use the foot-activated trashcan in our kitchen. Also, she thinks its a game and she likes playing it!

Nothing better than some grilled burgers to close out an awesome weekend of birthday parties, state fair midway games and catching up on sleep. Thanks Tommy!

This past week, the Testive team descended on Durham for the week.  Gooooo testive!

My new motivation technique. That orange bar has a long way to go.

It’s Halloween at the Rose house!

Kaya finally fits into her MIT onesie. Of course she won’t stay still for a picture.

I can barely manage to comb Kaya’s hair once a day. Look how she came home from daycare today! I can’t even do this to a doll, very well a squirming toddler.

Marty got to eat lots of baby reject food over the last couple of days. Hope his stomach held up for the ride home.

Today was the first day the Ganyard Hill Farms pumpkin patch opened and it was downright awesome.  At first I thought the price was a bit steep ($12.50 per adult) but it was worth every penny.  We rode a hayride, played in the corn crib, got lost in the corn maze, played with the animals, and picked out some pumpkins!  Pumpkin patch success.
