Apples and Apple Sauce

So, Last week I took Jaelyn to the Apple Orchard to pick apples. We took my sister in law and niece Becky too. I had the great idea for the girls to pick apples and then we could make home made apple sauce together. After picking apples I quickly realized that there was not enough patience left for making apple sauce. The girls did a great job picking ripe apples. Each one filled up a orchard bag full. Jae and I decided to make Apple Sauce a couple days later. The recipe (which I found on Pinterest) stated "once you eat this you will never want to eat store bought apple sauce again." Oh my, were they right. Not only did it taste wonderful, but it also made my whole house smell like Fall! (which is my all time fave scent.)

    They were so proud of their last apples they picked.

 She thought it was pretty yummy too! before you ask one cup is milk and the other cup is juice.

Our little man is already 7 months old!

My little man has turned 7 months today! what? wait, where has the time went. I truly believed that since I was staying home with Jordan and not working all the time that the time would go much slower. Boy was I wrong. It is going just as fast but I am able to actually realize and enjoy everything he does in the process of growing up. I can't believe it has been 3 months since I have blogged (a lot has changed in 3 months). Jordan has finally started to grow in height and he is slowing down on gaining weight. He is a perfectly healthy and Happy boy. His nickname should be smiles or happy.  My little man now has started to roll over a little. Jae was rolling over at 4 or 5 months,but Jordan has just now started. On Saturday oct. 12th He finally rolled from his tummy to his back and to his tummy again 3 times. Usually he will only roll from tummy to back or back to side.( he just can't figure out how to get his arm out of the way.  He wants to crawl, but he can't lift his belly off the floor. In the last few weeks his little legs have finally grew enough that his feet can fully touch the floor while he is in his walker. He has also started going forwards in his walker. Just a couple steps though. I am sure in just a few short months  he will be zooming around the house in his walker and rolling everywhere!

Jordan is now :
26 inches long
16.7 pounds
still sleeps through the night.
goes to bed around 10pm and wakes up usually between 8am and 9am
he drinks between 24 and 30 ounces
he eats usually half a jar of baby food and later a bowl of cereal
or he eats half a jar of baby food 2 times a day.
                                                           
                                                       He likes to blow bubbles .
