Fabulous Fall Adventures

10 months have flown!  But its a good thing we are still counting, otherwise I think I would forget to blog altogether!  Here's the little cutie:


He's cruising all over the place, refusing to eat anything except tables foods, and has started to sleep a little better (well, mommy finally let him cry a bit and that has helped)! 



And this little turkey had a take a pictures with the sticker too!


We visited Burt's Pumpkin Patch and the kids truly loved the giant pumpkins.  Brooks ran up to the first one he saw, threw his arms around it, and said "I love you big punkin!" 







We also took a fabulous hayride!  It was definitely genuine: there weren't bails of hay, it was just a bunch of hay on a wagon behind a tractor.  The boys loved the tractor, of course!





And yes, we did bring home a giant pumpkin! Tim carved it into Goofy before Halloween :)  

This little punkin continues to grow like a weed!



And then there was Halloween....  everyone came over to trick-or-treat at our house!  We got all the boys doubled up in clothes (because it was so cold), got outside the front door, and it started raining!  Talk about raining on our parade.  We came back inside and waited it out for a while, but we finally went out in the mist.  Everyone had a great time despite the weather!


 In our group there was Spiderman, Batman, a fireman, another Spiderman, Peter Pan, TinkerBell, Dorothy, and a Mad Hatter. 



 
The boys have also enjoyed the fall leaves!  It's a good thing they spend time with my mom, because I don't think I'd let them explore and get as dirty as she does (and I know its good for them, thanks mom)!

 And here are some of Brooks' adorable school pictures!


 And lastly, for my birthday I got canvas prints of our family for my wall (thanks Sandy)!  Check out the one of RJ next to Brooks (both at about 7 months), the family picture on the bottom, and the one of the 2 boys next to it.  I love them!
