Happy Halloween!

So I had my choice of being a duck or a dragon for Halloween...the duck was a bit less scary so I went with it! We started our fun day off at Nana's house, scooping out and carving pumpkins. I wasn't much into it but I smiled for the camera once.




In the afternoon we went to a "trunk or treat" party just down the road and I had a hotdog while Jonah went down the big slide. I went down it once with mom's help but we decided once was enough.
While Jonah went down the slide some more mom and I checked out the festivities inside and found the coolest train ever! I couldn't get enough of the choo choo train! I probably rode it 15 times! Mom had a hard time convincing me to get off of it after the ride was over and get back in line. Seemed like a waste of time to me!
Then it was back home for trick or treating! Last year I just rode in my stroller but this year it was all about the candy! I wanted to eat everything as soon as it was put in my bucket! Especially the lollipops!



Each day Jonah and I get to choose a treat from our stash and while Jonah chooses candy, I always choose the chocolate!
Happy Halloween!

"Here you go!"

My second favorite part of going to the grocery store is riding in this cool shopping cart! (My first favorite is the free cookie! Jonah didn't get sweets at my age...ahh the perks of being the second born!)
And my third favorite part: helping out with the groceries! Every time I hand the clerk something I say, "Here you go!"

New pets!

I guess it's time we learned some responsibility! Papa bought us each a pet frog! All we have to do is feed them about once a week. They each eat 2 tiny pellets of food so Jonah and I both get to feed them. Their names? Well, first I named mine "Old MacDonald" and Jonah named his "Duck". Then we changed them to Frog and Toad.

Skytop Orchard

This may be our last pumpkin patch of the season. Seems we were a bit late for the apple picking, most trees were bare but we still got to play around in some fun pumpkin houses and giant spiders! I even showed off my strength by picking up a pumpkin! And best of all, mom and dad let me have a donut! It sure was beautiful with all the Fall colors at their peak!

Hickory Nut Gap

Pumpkin patch #2 was pretty fun!
The animals were okay but the best part about this one was the giant haystack! I had no fear climbing up and jumping down!



Jonah needed a little help lifting this pumpkin so I offered my assistance! Don't we make a great team?

Giggles!

My big brother is so funny! I copy everything he does and everything he says! Today he was especially funny in the bathtub! I've never laughed so hard in my life!

Happy Fall!

Last year mom had to carry me around in a pouch while Jonah ran the corn mazes but this year I held my own weight...well, most of the time...okay, some of the time.


I was more interested in pulling down the corn stalks.
For this maze we had to find 5 tractor signs hidden throughout. I felt like we were running in circles most of the time but we eventually found them all!
After the maze we got to ride cows! Mine and Mommy's was called "Moo Linda"! It was a fun bumpy ride and even though I didn't smile once, I really enjoyed the ride!

Mom tried to get me to smile by the pumpkins but they weren't all that exciting.
I thought these apples were baseballs so I didn't get to play with them long. Overall it was a fun day! Mom says we're going to find some more orchards to go to this month, and who knows, maybe I'll learn to smile for at least one picture before it's over!
