Six

Yep, six is good for us!

pumpkin patch part 2

okay so today we went back to the pumpkin patch, but with nanaw instead of B.

sidenote: i never blogged about it, but B is washington d.c. for two entire weeks for work. two. weeks. so i've been a "single" mom for one week now and let me tell you, if we didn't live 5 minutes away from my parents, i would have probably lost my mind by now! nanaw and papa are a huge help and the boys just love playing with them. plus it gives me a chance to pee without 3 kids crawling on me!

okay, so where was i? oh yeah. last time it we went much later and after the hayrack ride we didn't have a chance to pick out big pumpkins for carving. so today, that was our goal. of course i had to take my camera and try to get more pictures of the kiddos having fun. after all, we promised nanaw phew phew that we would take LOTS of pics. so here they are. (and yes nanaw, i realize this isn't all of them. blogger is being stupid and taking forever to upload, so this is what you get):

pooks' turn!

he really loved it

of course, peanut needed a turn. however initially he was not happy about nanaw putting him down (spoiled much?!)

"hey wait a sec....this is fun!"

"seriously mom?"
pooks insisted on pulling the wagon

and finally (minus picture of the choosing) we loaded up our pumpkins

while we were there, the weather was wonderful! 65 degrees and a light breeze. by the time we arrived home, it was overcast and gloomy. it was much cooler and we couldn't have timed it better!

Busy Busy Weekend!

whew, we had a very busy weekend! we went to nanaw and papa's house this weekend (well fri-mon). while there we visited with nanaw and papa (of course!), matt and rachel were there too. basically the boys were spoiled rotten the whole time...hmm, imagine that! we took them to the pumpkin patch on saturday. it was a gorgeous day and i think we all had fun. bubba was a little sleepy, so that translates to grumpy in the pics. pooks slept some of the time, but was awake for the most part. we were going to go on a hayrack ride and pick our own pumpkins, but it was going to be over 45mins, and with two babies, thats just too long to wait for a stinkin' pumpkin. anyways, here are the pics. some are from the pumpkin patch, some are from nanaws and papa's. enjoy!
