Halloween Fun

Throughout the month of October, we read Halloween books, created Halloween snacks, made Halloween crafts, and worked on Halloween costumes, so we were all ready for Halloween to finally be here!
Davis loved pulling the guts out of the pumpkin

Maggie wanted Dad to help her with her guts :)

Fall Farm Fun



Loving the cow train
Brooks hanging out in the bjorn with Mommy
Checking out the piglets before their race


Shooting corn husks



Catapulting gourds

This is a fun adventure!

Going through a corn maze...kind of

This slide felt like a rollercoaster to D.

Maggie loved it too.

Maggie loved petting the chicks "like Uncle Mark has"

Enjoying the hayride

Some October picts...

Brooks chillin'

We had fun with Grammy visiting us for the day. We think she had fun too!

Making mummy cupcakes

Big kids swaddled up!

Tim gave Brooks his first bottle. Davis and Maggie saw this picture and were so excited that Brooks "was growing and was big enough to drink out of a bottle", they really wanted to give him one.



We aim to please around here, so Mom pumped a bottle for them to take turns feeding their brother.

Bug eyed Brooks!

Aunt Kiki's visit and to the Pumpkin Patch

We were sad for Nana and Gdaddy to leave, but enjoyed Aunt Kiki visiting for the weekend.  We got our flu shots on Saturday, then went to the pumpkin patch, and had a picnic and played at a playground. Brooks is definitely a 3rd child that he went to church with our family at two and a half weeks. He stayed in his carrier and no one messed with him---no worries!

I loved having Nana and Gdaddy hold me so much!

Mom and Dad loved having a one to one ratio when going out and about!

Ready to find a pumpkin!

Daddy helping me cut out the pumpkin I picked.

Davis found a big pumpkin he loved too!

Trying to get a family pict, but this was the best we got!

Brooks and Aunt Kiki

Davis and Maggie created a "fire" and asked Aunt Kiki to come make smores with them. Love those imaginations! (Mags wanted her hair in a ponytail like Aunt Kiki, but its not quite long enough!)

Llama Llama Storytime

Davis and Maggie love their Llama, Llama books and were excited to wear their pajamas and go to a special Llama, Llama, Red Pajama storytime. They got to listen to the story, sing songs, pet a real llama, and eat some gelato. It was a fun outing for sure and mom was excited to have Nana come with us!

Listening to the story with Mom

Brooks was the youngest one there
