The Pumpkin Trail

I took the kiddos to the Pumpkin Trail today!

This has been something my sister and I have wanted to do this month.  

I took Pax a couple years ago and he loved it.

My friend also joined us with her kids.

It was perfect weather for being outside!

 

 

They were both in great moods considering they have been sickies lately.

Paxton loved seeing all the pumpkins, and Maebry was just happy to be along for the ride.

 

 

I love Paxton's huge laugh in this next picture.

It was so good to see him acting more like himself today!  

 

Presley was there looking super cute too.

We missed Spency today, but he had school. 

 

Once again, Maebry was more concerned about eating hay.

The kids had fun running around and looking at all the different pumpkins.

(This is P Man's friend Finn.)

 



 

 

There was even a caterpillar pumpkin!

I sure love spending time with my two cuties!

 

 

Naturally, I loved all of the cute picture opportunities.

 

 

My sister and I tried real hard to get a cute picture of all three kids...

It was pretty much impossible.

Here are some funny ones though.

Maebry got real sassy at this point.

She pulled her bow off and decided to attack Presley.



Presley liked it though...haha.

 

Good job Paxton. 

Me and my boy.

 

One of Paxton's favorite parts was this "Spooky House."

 

 

Paxton just looks so grown up in this picture.

When did it happen??

Please stay little Maebry.

After we finished walking the trail, I told Paxton and Finn to cheese for me.

Finn threw his fist up in the air.

He's so hilarious.

You did real good Maebry :)

 

It was such a fun little outing.

After being stuck in the house all week with sickies, it was so great to spend some time outside.

Yay for friends and pumpkins! 

Ten Months Maebry

Miss Maebry is ten months old!

 

 

Today was not the best day to take her pictures.

She just got three more teeth on the top, (five total now) and there's another one close behind.

She has the snotty sickies.

She didn't want to take a nap today, and she is extremely tired!

BUT I took some anyway.

So, here is Maebry in all her snotty, teething, tired glory. 

Isn't she a beauty??

 

 

Like I said, her teeth total is now up to five.

The top three popped up around the same time.

Her mouth has really been bugging her lately.

 

 

I think if she were a baby supermodel her nickname would be "The Eyes."

They are amazing.

 

 

Still. Not. Crawling.

Oh well.

 

 

If there is one major difference this month,

it is definitely the amount of noise that comes out of this tiny gal.

She is always yelling super loud now.

She yells when she's happy, when she's mad, and all the rest of the time.

Every one has been like, "Wow, Maebry sure has found her voice."

It's true.

 

 She might just put on some weight, because when the yelling gets excessive, I give her food.

Hah. Food keeps her yeller busy and Mama sane.

It can be quite funny though.  

Random cute thing: Every time we are walking in from the garage,

I stop by the garage door opener and say, "Push It!"

She always gives me a huge smile and giggles.

Why? I have no idea. But it's cute.

I started telling her to push it because she loves to touch the green light on it.

I used to hold Pax up to close the door every time.

Now that I am always holding Maebry, I think it's her turn.

Just a little random thing I want to remember.  

 

 

Even though she has been teething lately, she is still mostly content and happy.

She is a great sleeper like Paxton, and usually goes with the flow.

 

 

There really isn't much more that is different.

Here are more cute pics of this crazy gal.

 

 

  

 

Our baby is growing up so fast!





Happy October 1st!

Happy October 1st!!

 

No, it's not a holiday, but I have been waiting for October.

It's the month of Halloween, pumpkins, fallish things, and (fingers crossed) cooler weather.

I made some Halloween outfits for the kiddos a little earlier this year.

I wanted to get them done so they could have time to wear them more than once!

 



 

Ben and I took the kiddos to a pumpkin patch yesterday evening to get some pictures.

I also decided that we definitely needed some pumpkins.

 

 

This was such a cute little pumpkin patch.

Paxton was pretty excited to see all the different kinds of pumpkins.

He ran around looking at all of them.

(I knew we had him hooked the second he realized it was something to do outside!)  

 

 

He even picked out his very own pumpkin!

 

 

Maebry just tried to eat hay the whole time. Haha.

 

 

That's OK though, because her main job was to sit there and look cute.

And as usual, she nailed it. :)

 

 

I cannot, for the life of me, get both kids to smile at the same time.

There was just way too much fun to be had.

Both kids were just so mesmerized by everything around them.

I love watching them experience new things.

 

 

I'm thinking she better wear this outfit every day in October to make up for the time it took to sew ;)

Only kidding, it was a fun one to make.

 

 

 

What a handsome little man.

 

 

And a pretty little gal.

 

We ended up getting two pumpkins.

Paxton picked out one, and I picked out a fun warty one.

 

 

I'm looking forward to way more pumpkins and Halloween themes now that it's October!
