Hey Everyone, this one is for you Sara!
One of my bestest friends has been chastizing me for not updating my blog. So here you go. Lots has happened since my last entry in August, wow, it has been a while since I have posted.... anyway. Where do I begin, Dylan is walking like an expert now, well really he runs, or tries to anyway. He cracks us up. He experienced his first weekend stay in a hotel back in September. Ben's hockey team traveled to Holland, MI for a tournament. We didn't win one game, but the kids had a blast, Dylan discovered that he loves swimming pools, & would cry if we took him out. At one point he wanted us to let him go so he could swim with the big kids. All in all it was a great weekend.
October 3rd we welcomed a new addition to the Blackwood/Ruth families, my sister in law Valerie gave birth to a beautiful baby girl at 7am. The little bundle of joy is Alexandria Mary Ruth, she was 6lbs 8oz 19 1/2 inches & cute as a button. Congrats Val & Karl!
This past Sunday Ben & his buddy Tommy ran the Half Marathon in Detroit. They finished in under two hours! 1:55:29 to be exact. We are so proud of you guys!
Dylan has also discovered his love of hockey, which makes his daddy so happy. He runs around the house screaming hockey while holding his plastic stick. He recognizes hockey on the TV too, Ben had to turn the channel the other night becuase Dylan was getting way too worked up about the hockey game & it was very close to his bed time.
This will be Dylan's first Halloween where he can actually participate in the holiday, Dylan loves his puppy Bella so we though that it was only fitting that he dress up as a puppy for Halloween. We will be taking him to a few houses, not sure how far we will get before he gets restless, so we will keep you posted on that. We carved our pumpkins on Wednesday, it was actually a much better experience than I anticipated. Dylan did not like sticking his hand in the the pumpkin goo, so mommy had to take care of that part. He helped me make a few cuts for the eyes, but his idea of carving a pumpkin was banging on the insides of it with his spoon. At least he wasn't throwing the guts all over the kitchen.........
