October is over.....

I feel like all the blogs I follow are in the same place I am......REALLY late on posting! Raise your hand if you have been super busy this fall......us too! Just get ready there is going to be a lot of photos!

First just some random photos of my  little man!
Frog
Here in Florida we do not get too much cold weather. So when we do, we savor it!
Boot Socks
Who doesn`t love some baby feet! They are boot socks my Mom got him.
Auburn (in belly) hanging with Parker (in an ugly shirt!)
Parker is just hanging out with Auburn (in Brannan's belly). Please excuse my sons ugly shirt! Poor guy is going to be so confused because Matt & I are always fighting over which team he will wear. The Iron Bowl is actually today. We are going to Matt's Mother's house, I will be watching it with a bunch of Alabama fans.....ugh. But you never ever know with the Iron Bowl, WAR EAGLE!!

Now on to the Pumpkin Patch! A local church had Pumpkins for sale so the Gukich clan hit them up with a photo shoot.

Aunt Ambrey was getting him to smile for me. This picture doesn`t do his eyes justice but Parker has the bluest eyes! Matt has green & I have brown, so people sometimes give him a weird look haha. But my Mother & Matt's Father both have blue eyes, we guess he just got the recessive gene. They still could change, but we don`t think they will.
Parker Bany
I could eat him up!

Ok sorry just one more : )

Next we have the Halloween House decorating party. My 2nd sister Brannan came up with the idea to have all the kids decorate Halloween houses like you would a gingerbread house. Since Parker is too little, I made one for him.....well I really just wanted to eat candy.

Parker in his Fall onesie I made him
The Finish Product!
My finished product. I had to take a picture fast because we all started eating them once they were done.

Every Halloween we all gather at my parent's house & sit on their front porch. This was Parker's first Halloween. He was a raccoon, Matt thought up the idea. He never left the house, we just took pictures & he was down for bed 30 minutes later.
A little raccoon I found
I made his whole costume. I dyed a white onesie & a sleeve off a little kids long sleeve t-shirt grey. Then I sewed on the white belly & the black stripes on his tail by hand. Then I stuffed the tail with cotton & sewed it on the onesie. The mask is just felt I cut out, it didn`t last long on him.

Maysen was a little Pumpkin.

Parker was Christened at the beginning of this month. This is the church my great-grandparents came to when they first came here from Yugoslavia. My grandmother, father, my sisters & I were all Christened here too.

Matt & I want Parker raised the same way we were, we both come from Christian families. We want Parker to know Jesus & feel at home in our church. Please pray for Parker & all the people in his life that God put there to help him on his walk with God.

Football & Maysen

Right now my air is off & all my windows & doors are open. I LOVE IT! I just wish the weather would stay like this longer then the weekend......but that is Florida for ya! With weather really makes Fall more real, and with this time of year, everyone is crazy busy! There is always something going on every weekend I swear.

What could be better then highschool football? Well maybe college but it is right up there! Matt's little sister (she is a senior) cheers for her highschool, where Matt went too.
Kenzie cheering
The girls cheering, they did a great job. Oh how I miss cheering at football games, they were so much fun!
Parker
Parker on the other hand had a horrible time! We actually left the game & took him to Matt's Granny's house for her to watch him while we went back to the game. It was way too loud & he was just miserable, it was breaking my heart! But he was super cute in his overalls!
Kenzie flying

Parker
He was so happy to be back home!

My 3rd sister's daughter was Christened. We were actually trying really hard to get it where Maysen & Parker would be Christened together but it just didn`t work out.
Maysen's Christening
This is the church my great-grandparents, grandparents, dad & ME all went too.

Well I many more pictures to come. I have Parker's 3 months photos & his Christening to post about. I am going through the process to be able to substitute, so that is taking up my time during Parker's naps. I want to become a teacher. I have actually taking the Subject Area (K-6) & the Professional and passed, but I need some experience under my belt. So please pray for me to get through all this and hopefully get a job!
