Fun at the Pumpkin Patch

We enjoyed the nice fall weather we had this weekend and headed out to the pumpkin patch. Even though Parker is still a little too young to do most of the kid-friendly activities, I didn't want two whole pumpkin patch seasons to go by before he experienced his first trip to this fun, fall, hang out spot! (Last year at this time he was only 11 weeks old!)  As you will see in the pictures (in which he isn't strapped into his stroller), he didn't want to cooperate to sit still long enough for Brad or I to snap a picture. Is he Mr. Independent? Yes, definitely! We still had a fun time and were already talking about how next year at this time he'll be running around wanting to do everything!

How Tall This Fall?

I was hoping we could get him to stand just for a second. Nope.

 Could barely even get him to sit long enough for a picture.

Oh well, there's always next year.

Parker loved sticking his little head through the cut-outs.

 Decided we probably better move him over one so he's the farmer and not the cute little girl. :-) 

 Checking out the pigs & goats.

Daddy & Parker at the start of the corn maze.

Are we ever going to find our way out?!

 

Yay, we made it! 

 

Next up, hay wagon ride! 

 The little stinker stole my sunglasses and wouldn't give them back!

 We made it to the pumpkin patch!

"I found the perfect one!"

Snack time!

Daddy was a trooper and stood in line for 15 minutes to get us a cider donut.

Didn't get any pictures of them though because it was somebody's nap time,

so we called it a day shortly after!

 

By this point I think he was telling me, no more pictures!

Camera Dump - A Bunch of Random Pictures

As I was going through my camera earlier, I saw that I had 930 pictures on my camera card. Eeek! That might be some sort of record - time to delete! Well I figured before I did that, I would put some of the latest pictures on the blog. Warning: this is going to be a bunch of random pictures from the past couple of months. Enjoy the picture overload. (No, there won't be 930 of them!)

Parker playing with Aunt Meg at my cousin's wedding reception.

Parker and I spent a few days at my parent's house in September. That whole week Parker was definitely Grandpa's boy! Here they are eating cheerios. Parker sure has some looks for Grandpa when he steals a few!

And here they are playing on the doodle board.

Definitely a favorite thing to do with Grandpa!

 

Here's Parker getting a bath at Aunt Meg and Uncle Bret's house.

He LOVED the basket!

Eating grilled cheese for lunch!

Here he is playing with whipped cream.

Oh my gosh, he loved it! And made such a mess! 

Playing with the toys in his room.

I cannot believe he's old enough to entertain himself! 

He was done with playing and ready to go at this point!

 "Aren't you going to open the door for me?!"

Touchdown Chiefs! 

Just readin' my book!

 



Eating mac & cheese.

See the floor? Days like these are when I'm so happy we have a dog. LOL!

Yep, we're in the high chair again!
This time for dinner one night.

Parker made such a mess and was having a blast.... well until he wasn't anymore!

 

You're seriously going to take my picture instead of clean me up?!

Crazy hair after bath time! 

Hands down, this boys favorite "toy" is the tv remote!

If you're thinking that I take a lot of pictures of Parker in his high chair, you're right. It's the only place he is sitting still long enough to get a picture! :-)
