Larriland Farms

Fall has been beautiful here in Maryland, and we were excited to get out and visit some local attractions. This farm has u-pick apple orchards, however we only had time to stop by the barn to buy some apples and fall decorations. We also enjoyed hot apple cider and fresh apple fritters (which rivaled the cider donuts at Crane's in Michigan!). Fall at Larriland Farms will be a Loomis family tradition!

Please note: there is a goat on the roof

Halloween Party

Our neighbors hosted a Halloween party. Thankfully, it was a few weeks before Halloween, as Hudson's costume no longer fit for the official holiday. Bruce and Nancy fired up the brick pizza oven and made sourdough breadbowls for soup and chili. It was delicious and fun to have a chance to see all of the neighbors. Hudson dressed up as a banana (Fruit of the Loomis?). Also there was a baby dressed as a monkey, which is kind of awesome.

Catching up....

Here are a couple of pictures from the last month...


Hudson likes to smile...and cuddle with his snuggie (any soft blanket or stuffed animal)

Loud music and dancing helps Hudson to calm down - one of Bryant's favorite parts of being a dad!

Visitor from Grand Rapids!!

My good friend from college, Sarah Bolman, had a long layover in Baltimore so we picked her up for a visit. It was great to see her and be able to introduce her to Hudson!

2 months!

At his 2 month appointment Hudson weighed in at 14 lbs 12 oz. That is kind of big.

First hike with the dude

Several weeks ago when my mom was in town, we put Hudson in the Baby Bjorn and went for our first hike with him. We had recently discovered that we live only about 15 minutes from a really nice state park with great hiking trails and a good size river running through it (which Zoe the dog is a big fan of).

Here's a couple of pics...

1 Month Picture

Each month, we plan to take a picture with Hudson's bear to see how much he has grown. Already, he looks like a little man!
