Well, once again it's been a while. Here are some photos from Caleb's fourth month to hold you over while I work on some more posts...

anniversary trip
The past weekend, Jason and I (and Caleb) went on a little getaway to Estes Park to celebrate our anniversary. Yes, our anniversary was almost a month ago...but we've been busy. :-)
We stayed in a little cabin by the Fall River.
It was a really cute place.
It even had a hot tub on the deck!
We just stayed for one night, but were able to fit in pretty much everything we'd wanted to do. We'd planned to go out to dinner, but decided to get food to go from a local Italian restaurant instead. We took the food back to the cabin, watched a movie, and relaxed in the hot tub with some wine and chocolate. In the morning we sipped hot cocoa by the river...
...and then headed downtown for breakfast. We spent the rest of the day in the town of Estes Park...walked around, took advantage of some of the really good end-of-season sales at the local shops, and visited the brewery (per Jason's request, of course). It was a tiring day for all of us, especially Caleb,...
...but we really enjoyed our mini vacation!

halloween
We didn't do too much in the way of celebrating Halloween this year, but I wanted to share a couple of photos of our cool jack-o-lanterns and our cute baby. :-)
pumpkin patch
A couple of Sundays ago, we went up to the Fort Collins area to visit my good friend Lindsay, her husband Justin, and their 2 1/2-year-old son Jeremiah. After a yummy lunch at Mad Greens, we headed to the pumpkin patch! When we arrived, we had a quick photo shoot by the pumpkin display. Doesn't Caleb look thrilled?
Then we took a tractor ride out to the field to pick out our pumpkins! The lighting in many of our pictures was pretty terrible, but here's one of Caleb and his daddy in the pumpkin patch anyway (yes, Caleb was sleeping).
After we'd picked out a couple of pumpkins, we rode the tractor back to our cars. Here's Jeremiah waiting for the tractor with one of the pumpkins we picked out (notice the little one he has stashed in his pocket as well).
The following Tuesday, Jason's sister Ali had a pumpkin carving party at her apartment in Denver. We brought along our pumpkins and carved away! It had been years since I'd carved a pumpkin so I had a blast. :-) Here are the final products...
