So far, it's been relatively easy since I don't really have to be anywhere at a certain time, I have help with Fae so I can focus on getting Grey ready, and my mom is able to help me out in the mornings feeding him- which gives me an extra hour of sleep (which I am in desperate need of right now).<br />
<br />
This past week has been a little challenging because Grey caught Fae's cold- which wasn't the most fun thing ever, but he is much better now. He is more awake now, he likes to watch Fae play and run around- loves being bounced- and adores being cuddled. He has been a little more fussy than he was the week we brought him home- but so far, it hasn't been even close to the colic we dealt with when we had Fae. I took Grey to the Dr. earlier this week to make sure his cold was just a cold- and found out that he gained almost 2 lbs in 2 weeks! The kid does NOT miss a meal, and literally acts like he is starving to death if you try to pacify him with the binky- or don't get a bottle in his mouth by his first cry- he's needy ha ha. He wen't from 6 lbs 12 oz to 8 lbs 8 oz in two weeks! His little leggies are finally getting some meat on them and it's the best.<br />
<br />
All in all, I'd say that he's still a good baby- he's super cute, and is usually pretty sweet. He still loves to be held, and cuddled and kissed. He smiles and laughs a lot in his sleep- I'm really looking forward to the real thing!<br />
<br />
Fae has been a real champ through this whole thing, honestly I don't know what I would do without her. She has always been my little pal, but now shes my little helper too. She is always willing to help out with anything to do with the baby. She will "hold" him even when he's screaming for a bottle, she will throw out his dirty diapers- even the poopy ones! and she gives him an uncountable number of kisses. Fae is just the best, most sweetest little girl, I am so blessed to be her mom. I thought she might have a hard time not being the center of my world anymore, but she seems to be taking it well, as everyone in the house is just in love with little Grey. Having my mom here has been a huge help with this though, so we will see how much Fae still loves me after my mom leaves.<br />

So, I decided that once this new baby made his appearance, I would start blogging again- which happened to coincide with the new years- so consider it a new years resolution to start blogging again.<br />
<br />
Here is Grey's birth story:<br />
<br />
Honestly, I thought I was never going to go into labor, I was 39 weeks and seriously tired of being pregnant, I had been walking and walking for weeks to try and start labor, but it resulted in maybe 5 contractions. On Monday, the 29th I decided to take Fae to the museum center to play so I could walk around some more. We stayed for about 3 hours, and then went to walmart and kroger to do some grocery shopping. By the time we got home, Jarom was already there which really was a surprise since he usually works until about 7 every night. Anyway, he wanted to go to Sam's Club and get a few bulk items- so I decided we should go, because I really just wanted to keep walking! While we were there, my water broke (which didn't happen when I had Fae) and at first it was just a trickle, I honestly thought I peed my pants- but because I couldn't "Stop" it, I knew it was something else. I was a little worried because in my mind I figured once your water broke, the contractions would start... but they didn't for about 3 or 4 hours. Once they did, however it was intense... in fact more so than when I had Fae. By the time I got to the hospital I was in a fair amount of pain. They strapped the heart monitor on me and did a few tests to "make sure" my water actually broke- though I thought it was pretty obvious. During that time (and before the actually admitted me) little Grey's heart rate slowed considerably and at one point faded out completely! About 12 nurses and Dr.'s came in and I was tossed and turned into very strange positions to try and get him heart rate back up. They gave me a shot to stop my contractions- i'm not sure what it was but it made me shake really bad. It took about 6 minutes, though it felt like 2 hours since I was having back to back ridiculous contractions before the shot. I was grateful for the medicine because my body wasn't dilating like it should have been for having such strong contractions back to back like that... and I was able to get some rest. Once they admitted me, I asked for an epidural, and I was so glad to be done with the pain! Unfortunately, I had to lay only on my left side with my right leg up in a sling- I'm not sure why. They also pumped like 8 bags of fluid in me which left my feet and hands looking like balloons for 4 days afterwards. I tried to sleep, Jarom did sleep. And then it was a waiting game! About 3 hours later I was dilated fully and it only took 4 pushes to get him out! Then he was here!<br />

So far, he is really a sweet baby, he loves to be held and kissed and talked to, but he also LOVES to eat and will not miss a meal. He was 6lbs 12 oz 20 inches at birth and he hasn't lost any weight! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He doesn't cry very often, only if he's hungry or feels lonely, oh and EVERY time I change his diaper- he doesn't like that (but I think it's because he's cold).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fae is in love with him, and very protective as well. She wants to hold him and kiss him all the time, it's pretty sweet. She has been such a big helper so far, I'm kind of waiting for her to get tired of him, but I hope she doesn't! </div>

As always, there was tons of good food and great company. Fae had a BLAST, I mean she cried so hard when we left, she wanted to play with all her "friends" (which by that she meant her 7 cousins).<br />
<br />
It was nice to have a week of real relaxation- Jarom's parents are fantastic about giving us time to chil out without worrying about Fae.. or anything else.<br />

Yep, the big day finalllllly came, my sweet, loving, smart husband finally graduated- we are done with the student life (which turns out is much easier than real life, but nonetheless).<br />

Jarom was the Class President- so he sat up on the stage for the whole graduation. He also carried the Union Graduate College Flag up there- but I was late on the uptake and missed the photo opp.<br />

So, yes, we moved. At first it was sad, we all really did fall in love with NY, its beautiful there, and my family is there- so it was a pretty great way to spend the last 2 years. However, it was time to move on and move out- so after Jarom's graduation (literally, the day after) we started our journey to Taylor Mill, Kentucky.<br />

So anyway, we made it to our new home, our apartment is nice enough, unfortunately, the longest (and best) part of our sectional wouldn't fit through the door and so we are currently using the smaller two pieces- which isn't the worst thing, but it is kinda lame. </div>

Anyway, We've been exploring our little town, we have a walmart near-by which I swore off before we left NY.. unfortunately they are still the cheapest store, and we are on a strict budget... so I guess I have to leave the swearing off to a later date. There are some nice parks, and a cue library- which has lots of children's activities. So far so good, I'm sure it will start to feel more like home once we make some friends :)</div>

I am getting better about candidly taking shots, but I still would like fantastic quality- awesome camera candid shots- so I hire people haha- since I lack that talent in a big time way.

Fae Loves the park, we pretty much go to a park everyday when the weather is nice. Today my family came with us! The second picture is funny she really isn't nervous, shes in fact VERY confident... maybe overly confident while climbing up to high- heights haha... but I thought it was cute and funny. Hope you all had a nice weekend!jaromandericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487374075307022604noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443649243448580767.post-1083723831150331622013-04-25T18:10:00.002-07:002013-04-25T18:10:49.231-07:00Old NewsI don't really have any new-news, but I just realized that I never officially blogged about our new job! So, I'll do a little post here just because this is our family journal and important things like new jobs- or rather FIRST REAL jobs should be noted.<br />
<br />
As many of you know, Jarom applied to over 20 fellowships across the country, (fellowships are sort of like what a residency is for a doctor) they are highly competitive and was taken onsite to a lot of them, and offered three positions at three different health systems (yeah, I'm bragging cuz' he's a pretty slick guy). Long story short we took an offer from St. Elizabeth's Physicians in Crestview Hills Kentucky. So, June 17th we will be bidding New York adieu. We are both really excited for this new change, it will be so great to finally have a stable income- so that we can start saving for that sweet vacation- or first home ha ha. I'm so proud of my little Jarom, he is so fantastic, we've had a lot of road blocks in our 5 years together and I have to say he's the rock(et) that keeps us together and moving forward. I love that man.<br />
<br />
Anyway, hopefully after a few months of Kentucky living, it will be appropriate for me to start saying "y'all" and adopting that country/southern/hick accent I hear they showcase out there.jaromandericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487374075307022604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443649243448580767.post-69794242410452173442013-04-09T13:07:00.000-07:002013-04-09T13:07:12.838-07:00My "rustic" wreath<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I made this today- and I really like how it came out! :)jaromandericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487374075307022604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443649243448580767.post-73170174543991514012013-04-07T15:29:00.002-07:002013-04-07T15:29:36.017-07:00Right now<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Lets see, right now I am sitting at the computer, looking for housing, watching Fae make a mess of Jarom's papers, and listening to the Nora Jones station on Pandora. But, aside from what I am physically doing, mentally I am in turmoil! I honestly can't believe how fast our time in NY has gone by, and how little I feel like we've been able to do (traveling and vacationing wise). We are moving in about 2 months, and there is still so much we have to accomplish- one of the most important being finding a place to live without being able to see them in person. I've never done this before and I'm pretty sure its kicking my butt. Anyway, I am confident that we will find something, and that we will successfully be able to call it (as well as make) it our home. </span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In other news, I cut all my hair off! Jarom thinks I am rebelling, haha, but in reality I nearly shaved my hair off three weeks ago! I get so annoyed with it! I've just never had very pretty hair, and its so fine that holding any sort of style besides "up", is a huge task. So, because my dear friend Aaron gave me a gift certificate to Jean Paul Spa, I was able to get a fantastic, crazy cool, master haircut! I had such a fun time watching all my hair be cut off and fall limply, rather hideously to the ground. It was quite refreshing, and I absolutely LOVE the way it came out. Jarom has been telling me how sexy I look since I came home with my "new do" on Thursday- I have even been getting extra kisses and compliments so that's reassuring.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So Far I don't have any really good pictures of it when I wear it "down and pretty" but here is one of Fae and I and one of me by myself (self portraits are always the worst haha)</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">- I like to Faux Hawk it most of the time :) </span><br />

While we were there we also got to hang out with another friend, Anjuli. It was a really awesome time, we went to the Bronx Zoo, The Museum of Natural History, Ruth's Chris Steak House, and walked around the city- even took Fae to Toys R US in Times Square- we were going to let her ride the Ferris Wheel but the line was ridiculous. We stayed in a nice Marriott near Times Square, which was awesome because we were central to everything and had a subway pretty close. We do love the city, but after this weekend I am glad we didn't accept a job there- it would be a pretty hard way of life for me to adjust to.<br />

We've been up to nothing. haha well, not really nothing, Jarom has been busy in school, and I have been busy with all sorts of things- it seems that for not having a job, nor being in school this semester (due to financial constraints.. grad school is just more important i guess.. just joking jarom, it really is! I love you!) I am always busy! I have been working on a bunch of new crafts, and sewing techniques- which is sooo fun for me. And also I potty trained Fae- hahahah which all of your facebook friends heard about far too often last week. Anyway, yesterday my mom and I took Fae to Sesame Street Live! (again!) We went last year, but I think she liked it more this year.<br />

It's been ridiculously cold here in NY, I mean really cold, like 10 degrees. I realize in Idaho- where we used to live- it got much colder than this, but for some reason I just can't hack this weather! So, We've been trying to keep ourselves occupied indoors which is brutal for me, as well as for Fae. However today we had a little dance party after we showered and got ready for the day :) Luckily this is only a video of Fae, and not me-I'm not out to scare anyone with my out-of-this-world dance moves. <br />
<br />

This video really has nothing to do with the full of energy part, but more to do with the "so cool and so much fun" part :) enjoy!<br />

It was really nice to spend time with family, some of whom we don't see very often- eating awesome food, and playing some fun games! We had a great holiday!<br />
<br />
Anyway, two exciting things happened in the past two days, #1 is that Jarom's brother and his wife Megan had their baby girl Charley Marie Bowman! We can't wait to meet her (although it wont be until shes like 6 months old, so sad) So we are very happy for them!!! the second thing really isn't that exciting but Fae was excited- It snowed! And not just a little bit, a LOT.<br />
<br />
Fae spent a good portion of the day playing in it actually, she didn't have any snow pants- I was planning to go out and find some yesterday but I never got around to it- so we dressed her in warm layers and she of course has good gloves and a warm hat, so she was warm and happy even without them! (we did purchase some super cute ones at Gap on sale for $14! they were the only ones left and they were her size so I took it as a "sign" and bought them haha, they are cute).<br />

Of course the year started last January... and I know that, what I mean to say is I can't remember what life-changing or even exciting changes we made in this last year alone! (There have been a lot) However, I just wanted to take a minute and say how grateful we are to have such loving, kind, generous- friends and families. We are so blessed to have them in our lives. These past few months have been a little more difficult- and by difficult I mean we are poorer than normal- haha- and that in turn means I had to switch to a cheaper shampoo and deal with all the issues there... but I digress. Even though we have been experiencing a bit of bad luck with a side of poverty (okay it's really not. that. bad), we've been blessed in so many other ways. Jarom and I have got to spend a lot of time together- which is normally a rare event- Fae has been able to spend more time with daddy- and we've been figuring out ways to stay entertained without spending any money- which is difficult, but also awesome. I also learned what the true meaning of "window shopping" is.. and I'm pretty sure I like regular shopping better. No, I'm just trying to be humorous.<br />
<br />
Seriously though, I've been thinking a lot about Christmas lately, and it's meaning and what I should be teaching Fae- most of you know that I like to focus on the birth of Christ rather than gifts, we like to do gifts too- don't get me wrong, but I feel like that is way too much of a focus in the world today. This year I orchestrated a toy drive at our church for the City Mission of Schenectady. I am kind of a bleeding heart for children- and given the opportunity- and permission from my husband would likely adopt all the little infants in the world (that's probably an over exaggeration- but none the less, point made.) Christmas is a time for giving, not just gifts or cookies, or money, but for giving time and service. I'm not a saint by any means, but I decided that as a family we were going to "give more"; give more service, time, talents, etc. What is important during this time of year is that everyone know they are a child of God- no matter what race, what religion, or whatever else. Everyone matters- even that annoying upstairs neighbor that threatens to tell the "manager" every time we drop something and make a loud noise. We all matter, and we are all special in some way.<br />
<br />
I just want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and a year filled with charity and love for one another. Spend time with those you love, make time for those who don't have anyone else, and most of all treat everyone with love and respect, everyone.<br />
<br />
Love,<br />
The Bowman's<br />

Faith is knowing that you are doing on this Earth has a purpose greater than the immediate outcome. Faith is giving your whole self to someone. Faith is hard, and scary sometimes, but without it what would we have?<br />
<br />
I am so thankful for the wonderful opportunities we have had over these past two months, everything we've gone through has a purpose, and has caused us to grow and a family. I am thankful for my husband, and my daughter, they are both relentlessly forgiving and kind. I am so lucky to have them in my life.jaromandericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487374075307022604noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443649243448580767.post-6872470748950856472012-10-27T14:03:00.000-07:002012-10-27T14:22:17.245-07:00Pumpkin Patch<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Since we returned home from North Carolina, until about a week or two ago, Jarom has been busy about 95% of the day writing, writing letters for potential fellowships, emails, papers, etc. He of course, took the lap top with him, making it very difficult to get anything done, as our desktop computer is in Fae's room... and the only time I can do homework is when she is taking a nap. Quite the conundrum I know. (And yes, we thought about moving the computer out of that room, but who ever installed the Ethernet outlets didn't do a sufficient and or thought out job, making it impossible.) So, needless to say I was constantly in "catch up" mode. There is nothing in this world I hate more than being behind in something <i>and</i> being stressed about it.. well, maybe 1 thing, wet paper towels. (SICK!) In all seriousness though, I truly was having stress issues. I try to live my life in a calm, collected manner so that I don't really ever exhibit much stress on the outside, nor do I feel stressed on the inside. I try to let the little things go, ignore Fae when she is screaming in a store, or not worry too much when Jarom makes a huge mess in the kitchen right before I am having company over. However, I could not stop worrying, stressing, and freaking out about my classes during those first 3 weeks. I was moody and mean, and having the worst bout of stress headaches in the world, insomuch 3 advil every hour didn't even help. My back hurt, my throat hurt, my neck was killing me, and I could tell my body was literally shutting down. I'm sure you're thinking, "wow, this girl can't handle anything!" and you know what, maybe you're right.<br />
After listening to conference this past weekend, Pres. Uchtdorf spoke about preserving the relationships that matter to us the most. I was really touched by that, I was upset with myself for ignoring Fae to do homework, and mad that I was moody, and mean toward Jarom, but after much thought that madness faded into humility. I knew that was something I needed to hear. I thought about school, and realized that there were really only 2 reasons I was finishing my degree, 1 was because I want to be a good example for Fae. I want her to value education and become everything that she is capable of becoming. 2 is because I know it is what I should do, and I will be happy I accomplished such an amazing thing. However, making sure my family knows they are my first priority is more important than either of those two reasons. I never want Fae to feel like my homework and grades are more important than her. I decided then and there I would never put off reading her a story or playing with her to do anything that wasn't dire. I vowed to be more cheerful and loving toward Jarom, even when I am annoyed that we don't get to see him as much as we would like, and to stop some of my complaining that he doesn't help as much as I'd like around the house. (Some of my complaints are valid by the way, haha)<br />
Anyway, religion aside, I think we all need to preserve our relationships with the people we love and cherish the most, because all those other people and things don't matter. Time, is love, and it's the best thing you can give.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
I look forward to many cuddle sessions, lots of learning and new experiences with my little bird, because those are the things that are most important, not the perfectly edited paper, or the immaculate house (much to my chagrin, just joking, but I'm a real, live clean freak). I love the song "Time is love" by Josh Turner, I sing it loudly when I hear it so Jarom really hears the lyrics, but how cute are they?<br />

Well, maybe I went a little overboard, maybe we got too much food, and maybe the two cakes me made were too much.. maybe... but definitely not! Fae had such a wonderful birthday party, spent with friends and family! We were so thankful that we got to see some extended family, eat yummy pizza and in Fae's case, play with friends! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had been planning her party for a few weeks, I arranged a bounce house (courtesy one of my mom's friends) a ball pit (courtesy my aunt), and balloons, and the kids loved it! </div>

I didn't get any pictures really because we decided to video tape it instead (which sucks because I don't have one of her eating her cake or blowing out the candles :( oh well, there's always next year, right?), but here is one with 5 of the kids!!

I had a great time planning and carrying out her "way too big for a 2 yr old" party. I love to see my little Bird laughing and running around crazy, so all our efforts were totally worth it!

<br />
I have been seeing this picture popping up all over Facebook lately, and I have to say it has really bothered/stuck out to me. I'm torn by what this picture is really saying, I know the general message is something along the lines of "you don't have to be a skinny super model to be beautiful" and with that, I totally agree. The other thing this picture is telling me is that it's okay to be over weight, and that your weight has nothing to do with beauty.. which I also agree with, to some point.<br />
I have never noticed how huge of a role society plays in our everyday lives, on one hand we have actresses coming out and saying "I'm fat, I know it, embrace it, love it, because it's okay to be unhealthy, it's still beautiful." along with other things like "we don't have to be skinny like "everyone" wants us to be. On the other hand we are willingly forced to see beautiful men and women on TV, in magazines, online and in newspapers who are stick thin, claiming they do not have a disorder, that the bones sticking out of their chests are a sign of being healthy. So what is it? What is beauty? Should we all put on 50 lbs and call it good? or should we exercise and deprive ourselves of food? It seems as though these are the only answers we have.<br />
<br />
Now, I beg to differ on this. I spent a majority of my life worrying about my weight, as you can tell from some of my previous blog posts, I even went through a 2 yr. eating disorder in which I literally ate nothing new- ever. My diet was horrible, but I lost about 30 lbs and kept it off. Awesome? no. When I became pregnant I wasn't one of those people who stuffed their faces and blamed the baby, (not to be rude, but some of those people are out there) I tried to eat a little better, and get over my - what I will call "fear of new foods". The pregnancy helped a lot, and I gained a normal "healthy" amount of weight, and delivered a beautiful healthy baby girl. I'm using the word healthy a lot here because I think that is what beauty is. To me, beauty is a combination of happiness, healthiness, and confidence. There is nothing worse than either a skinny person OR an overweight person complaining about their weight. In fact, I find it pathetic.<br />
<br />
Right now, according to the "doctors charts" I am right at a "healthy weight" and I have to say that, no I'm not as thin as my wedding day, but I am much happier and a LOT less self conscious. There are days of course that I wish I could look good in some skinny jeans, but come on, do those really look good on anyone?? (Maybe I'll address the world's fashion problems next). Beauty should not be defined by a persons weight, although (AND ALL MEDICAL ISSUES ASIDE- obviously) weight can be an outward expression of an inward problem. What my main concern is, is that we (especially here in America- according to my homework this week) are so willing to let society and the mass media tell us what is beautiful and what is acceptable. Letting our weight define us as individuals, letting it dictate our level of happiness and confidence is absolute ludicrous.<br />
<br />
What I suggest isn't that all the overweight people loose weight, and all the underweight people gain it, I'm suggesting that we all find our "happy place" the place where we all feel most comfortable, the place where it really doesn't matter what number your jean size is because you are confident in yourself anyway. Beauty is NOT self consciousness, and it is NOT unhappiness. It also isn't the classic "trying to make your self feel better by putting others down"-syndrome that many girls these days have. We all just need to worry about ourselves, find what makes us happy, and the people who will fully support us in this venture. So often are we surrounded by people who don't want us to be our best selves, and this is something we need to get rid of.<br />
<br />
For the younger girls out there, it's hard sometimes, in high school to realize how meaningless, and silly all this is- but let me assure you- it will pale in comparison to your "grown up years". Are we going to sit back and willingly let society, or friends, the media, etc, tell us what is acceptable and beautiful? OR are we going to decide for ourselves what makes us happy?<br />
<br />
Happiness, Confidence, and Healthiness= Beauty.<br />

I love Fae. Actually, that is an understatement, but I am having a hard time finding a better word, cherish, adore, am enamored with... you get the idea. Fae is one sweet, funny, silly little girl. She is so smart and so beautiful. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful little girl in my life. She has just so many awesome qualities, one of which is a fantastic sense of humor. Lately she has been making funny faces and saying "mommy, that's funny!" haha she is just the bees knees. I love my girl. I am so excited/sad/happy about her turning 2.. I really can't believe it has been almost 2 years since she came into this world. So much has changed, in our lives and she has been quite the little trooper. <div><br /></div><div>All I can say is that I adore and cherish the little life Jarom and I brought into this world. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect baby girl. She is the light of my life, the apple of my eye.. and all the other corny phrases. </div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div>jaromandericahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15487374075307022604noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4443649243448580767.post-40880931880445778632012-09-15T17:22:00.006-07:002012-09-15T17:33:04.899-07:00Farm Festival<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD8d2PKM58F0qJxGF3BR5vMH_2u_omT_zGhdpcq0eakmGHKZDiLbZcdibI1gRJ3QvTDf9db2gUvnXAMkm91frMRuNd1oS-TY_aEZ_zuizyMKQvhOPc7CfMz4Qq-3hJ8BTq9EVmzellQpO1/s1600/downsize+%252813%2529.jpg" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; "><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD8d2PKM58F0qJxGF3BR5vMH_2u_omT_zGhdpcq0eakmGHKZDiLbZcdibI1gRJ3QvTDf9db2gUvnXAMkm91frMRuNd1oS-TY_aEZ_zuizyMKQvhOPc7CfMz4Qq-3hJ8BTq9EVmzellQpO1/s400/downsize+%252813%2529.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5788564705714981266" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px; " /></a><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><br /><span style="font-family:Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size:100%;">Well, I didn't get very many pictures of this girls today, but just know that they had a blast. We only made it to Bowman Orchards, but it was more than enough. They have everything from apple picking, to apple cider doughnuts to pony rides. Fae and Marlo both got tickets to ride the pony, but of course once we went to put Fae on she freaked out and only wanted to give the pony a hug, I do have to admit it was the biggest pony I've ever seen... I have my suspicions that it was a full grown horse haha. So, Marlo got to go twice! We decided not to pick apples since it was crazy crowded, and just let the kids play in the playground, and feed the goats and sheep. We also got some delicious apple cider doughnuts, apple fritters and kettlecorn. Oh, and I bought both the girls a little pumpkin and a chocolate lollipop.
