4 Month %

Yesterday Parker had his big 4 month checkup and shots.  To much surprise, Parker is quite average.  

Weight:    14 pounds 14 ounces ----- 45%
Height:     25 inches ----- 50%

His head now, on the other hand, seems to be quite large!  He is in the 95%!

As I would say to my kinders with large heads - "You must be SO SMART!"  That's it, we've got a genius on our hands!  Seriously though, I don't think it looks extraordinarily big.

Stanley Lane Pumpkin Patch




Notice that the sign says "Piggies will bite"...I think we'll look from afar
I was so excited to head to the pumpkin patch for fun-not for a field trip!  It's amazing how much more relaxing it can be when you go with your own family, rather than 60+ kids and 40+ adults!  And on a sunny day!  I wish we could have stayed longer, but Joel had to get back to work.  :)
Pink October

Pink October is a very busy month for the Gewekes in Yuba City.  I am so proud to say that my dad started our Race for Awareness 14 years ago and it seems to get bigger and bigger every year.  All the money raised from the race, Bowling for Breasts, The Scramble for the Cure, Survivor Fashion Show, Spa Night and I'm sure I'm forgetting more goes to the Geweke Caring for Women Foundation.  The money stays local and helps women in the fight of their life with breast cancer. 

I honestly love race day.  It is filled with community togetherness, family fun, exercise and a wonderful pancake breakfast that I just can't get enough of!  I was so excited to have Parker run his first race and with Joel's determination, Parker and his dad (along with Brett and Kate) were the first strollers to cross the line!  I was just proud to run the entire 5k, and with Samantha talking by my side, it was a breeze!

The stroller runners

Kels and Cars with their scooters were still "scooting"
