Harvest is almost over!

Hello! I loved all of the cute halloween pictures. Not sure how to do that yet, so when I get some extra time I'll mess with it. We had family pictures taken on October 30th. What a mess that was. It was gorgeous the week before and the week after pictures, but we froze our rumps off that day. Kansas weather is great! Ha! Kevin is almost done with harvest and although he is tired; he is in a great mood. He celebrated his 30th birthday on Friday in the field. Alex stayed with Grandma Vicki and I hired a babysitter for Shawn so that I could surprise him with a six pack of beer and adult conversation! We talked about the kids the whole time anyway! I took Alex to a pediatric urologist last Tuesday to fix a little problem he has. I told him on the way to Kansas City that a doctor was going to look at his wiener so he wouldn't pee all over mommy's wall anymore. He said, "otay mommy" and acted like it wasn't a big deal. We were still okay when the doctor came in and asked Alex to look at his "tallywacker", but when he started touching it Alex started yelling, "my wiener, my wiener, he's touchin my wiener". For one of the few times in my life I was speechless. The doctor must have seen my embarrassment because he just started laughing and said he gets this all of the time working with kids! I definitely need to write that down in a book! (Alex will probably be mad at me someday for sharing this story!) Shawn can now roll over and scoots everywhere. He also has the nickname chunky monkey. Maybe we should have put him in a Bears costume for Halloween and MaKenna could be cheering for him! He would have to be on the O-Line. Lol! He is weighing in at 16.1 pounds. There are no meals missed by this little guy! Alex only weighed 18 pounds when he was a year old compared to Shawn at 3 months!! Yikes! Well, I had better get back to work. XOXO, Lisa
