A couple of weekends ago we went to Center Grove Orchard near Cambridge. Zachary visited the homes of the three little pigs, watched goats, chickens, pigs, and horses, and we picked up our first round of Honey Crisp apples (amongst many other things). The ironic thing is that two farm kids (Nancy & Lonnie) actually PAID to visit a farm. Sheesh.
In the meantime, we have been in Thumb Sucking Boot Camp. After about a week we were able to stop putting anything on Zac's thumb during the day. At night and during naps we are still using the mittens although they are usually dry when we get him out of bed. So it doesn't appear as though he is trying to suck through the mitten (although we do add some athletic tape and Mavala in strategic places to assist).
At this point, as we're getting ready for bed, Zachary will point to the mittens when it's time to put them on. He thinks they're pretty cool. As we're putting on the Mavala, he will grin and whisper, "ackey." It is truely ackey.
It is just amazing how quickly this little boy adapts to things. We are so thankful for him.

Can you believe it!? We found this cool circle of rocks to stand in at Saylorville. It doesn't get any better than this.

TOO FUNNY because Mike and I just took the kids to a pumpkin/farm last weekend and paid $10 a person....that was hard to swallow, my dad (farmer) thought that was INSANE! So glad Zach is doing well. I will pray he remains healthy! Love and Miss you, Stephanie
