Pumpkin Patch...

So it took us the entire month of October to get to a pumpkin patch! How crazy is that? In years past we usually go at least 3 times. So we had to make it count today and spend Halloween morning at our favorite pumpkin patch... Argyle's Pumpkin Express

My homemade outfit...


Candy corn has definitely been my favorite thing about Halloween...






One of the neat things about Pumpkin Express is that you get to ride on a train into the pumpkin patch...


Running into the station...


Riding with daddy...




We got to go over a bridge...


How neat is this miniature train?


We got to see geese too...


When we got to the actual pumpkin patch I didn't hesitate a second...


I ran to this pumpkin and said "look I'm a pumpkin" (like he was a mask)...


Then I ran to this and said "take my picture"...


The princess playhouse was my favorite...


But I wasn't scared of the spooky stuff either...


See how independent I am now...


Giving a pumpkin a hug...


I ran like this the entire 2 hours we were there...


and I even pulled my own pumpkin...


with a little help from daddy...


Going through the "spooky" maze...


Swing time with mommy...


The hay maze was SO much fun! I did it 3 times...


BIG slide!


Peekaboo with the witch...


Not loving the pumpkin measuring station...


But I did love getting my face painted...




Giving the witch a hug...


We stopped for lunch...


and daddy climbed to the top of the hay mountain...


I choose the smaller mountain...




Train ride #2...






Geese!


A few more minutes of playtime in the houses...


and then we headed home... Mom wasn't sure if I would nap on Halloween, but 2 hours of running in the fresh air resulted in a 3 HOUR NAP! Woo hoo!


Halloween night pictures will be posted tomorrow... keep reading for Mom's Birthday...

Mommy's Birthday...

Happy birthday mommy!


I was SO excited when mommy told me it was her birthday... mainly because I know that birthdays mean cupcakes!


I asked mom if we could go celebrate her birthday at Little Gym...


So off we went!


I'm loving all this independent stuff...






Scarves! I want scarves for my house!


The bars were set up where we could climb up to the top bar and swing off today...


Which Jet and I did about 50 times...




Skill of the week...




Monkey...


Mom was SO excited that I was finally willing to do the big donut roll...


After class we headed to the Cabela's parking lot to watch the Alliance Air Show...


This is about 5 minutes from our house and we spent the entire weekend being buzzed by the Blue Angles...


At least I watch planes in style...






Time to go home and take a nap...


After nap time we headed out to dinner at Five Guys and then the Cupcake Fairy delivered cupcakes to Milwaukee Joes for us to eat with our ice cream... YUMMO!


The cupcakes were SUPER good!


After dinner we headed to our neighborhood Halloween party...


It was interesting, lots of crazy big kids and lots of adults in costumes...


I kept trying to play with the big girls, but they weren't interested in me, but luckily I still enjoy playing with my mommy and daddy!
