A Wonderful Fall Weekend!


On Sunday we lucked out and had great weather and decided to fight the crowds (it was the busiest I have ever seen the parking lot) and headed to the Pumpkin Patch! I must say even with how busy it was, it was easy getting around and everyone was very kind in regards to letting you get photos at all the hot spots! I must say it was really fun this year to see Aiden's reaction to the pumpkins and everything going on around him. The top picture was taken as we were leaving and I must say this is my favorite from the day! My little pumpkin!


We all have this shot...well if you grew up around here and this will be a yearly tradition. Last year he was in my arms for this photo my how time flies!


Aiden kept knocking off the scarecrow's gourd...too cute. Notice how he is standing all on his own! Steps next? Notice the pumpkin hat? It has been a huge hit at the grocery store, the mall and of course at the Patch thanks mom for getting it for our little man!


On Saturday we braved the long line for the cider donuts and headed to Edward's. This wasn't as bad as we were expecting especially since we did not yet have to partake in the pony ride, apple picking, or petting zoo. It was a cool fall day and what better way to introduce Aiden to the delicious donuts that we all love! Notice the crumb on the bottom lip...he loved the few bites that I allowed him to have. My favorite picture from our outing was the pumpkin one. Look how he is trying to stand up and be a big boy. Even hamming it up for the camera! What a great trip and I can't wait to see him running around next year.

At this point we didn't want to look at the camera anymore and wanted to be down standing up on something...or was it the fact that we didn't get our morning nap?! It has been a great few weeks and every day it seems like Aiden is doing something new. We are rolling our arms, clapping on command, and even saying "Uh-oh" when we throw/drop something. We are standing up and letting go now, pushing our walker all over, and the newest milestone we popped one of our top 1 year molars! All while fighting our first "real" cold. Every day is a joy and we can't wait to see what our little man will do tomorrow!
