Punkin Pickin'

Here we are at Maple Lane Farms Corn Maze (which we didn't walk through this year). But we did take the Hay Ride out to the Pumpkin Patch. Here are some pictures....





What a ham...




He loved all the tractors...


With Tim and Jennifer....


He loves ol' Tim Cline. Here he is with his Triplet buddies, Jack and Josh.


A nice family shot....

Boo!

Happy Halloween!
This past weekend we dressed Luke up and went to Boo at the Zoo.

Here's my little Tigger...






The side view... costume complete with tail!






So we went trick or treating to each of the different stations at the Zoo and Luke wanted to hold the treat bag...


"Twick or Tweat"


Here he is with cartoon cut-outs bigger than he is...




And then we came upon a Life-size Tigger. He wasn't too sure what to make of her, so he kept his distance...




Meeting a Lion... again, not too sure...


And finally, the last 'Treat Booth' was giving away Krispy Kreme donuts. YUM! So, Luke had his very first donut ever... and he LOVED it!!!! He was a little mad that I wouldn't let him hold the donut


And Tigger is not the only costume Luke has this year...
Here he is "Little Devil." That's what it says across the front of his shirt, and the outfit is complete with little horns on his hood.


He's also got a Pumpkin costume, but he's not going to wear it until we go to visit a Corn Maze/ Pumpkin Patch next weekend with friends. Stay tuned for more pumpkin pictures to come....

It's Fall, Y'all

Yay! Fall is officially here. The leaves are changing colors, it's getting cooler outside, and it's time for pumpkins!!! So we went to a pumpkin patch to pick one out!

(And I must tell you... it's very hard to take pictures of a one-year old who can't sit still....)











This is the best one we took...

It's Molar Time!

Molars are a pain! Literally. And I think all of Luke's molars are coming in at the same time. The poor little guy is pretty uncomfortable. It's so bad he doesn't even feel like eating. (And that's not Luke -- Luke likes to eat). And he's not sleeping (which means we're not sleeping). He's just cranky. (Ever heard that saying, "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy" well, we can take that and apply it to Luke... If Luke ain't in a good mood, then neither are we!)

Anyway, you'll just have to take my word for it - I don't have pictures of the molars. He won't open his mouth for me. About the only way I get to take a peek at the new teeth is if he's already got his mouth wide open, screaming his lungs out. Not fun.

So instead, I'll post these fun pictures. We went down to Concord Park to eat dinner one night. Luke was so excited to see the ducks that he hardly ate his dinner. But, when he got right up to the ducks, he was a little scared of them. It was quite cute.

Messy Boy!

This little guy loves to make a mess!!

Here he has a ravioli meal all over him. In hindsight, it probably wasn't a good idea to leave the blue container on the tray. First he dumped all his food out of it, and then he turned it up and was licking the bottom of the container. I was about ready to just hose him down after this, but instead we went straight for the bathtub!!

Here he is with his favorite meal... Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich. What he does is he likes to take the sandwich apart and eat the 2 slices of bread separately. Well, that means that jelly gets EVERYwhere!!

I think he's pretty proud of himself. I'm really in trouble when the kid learns how to make "mud pies."
