Pumpkin Patch

One of the best things about being a domestic diva is you get to go on field trips with your kids. One of the perks for making all those lunches in my opinion. This last week I got to go with Ellie's kindergarten class to the pumpkin patch.

We started on the playground...


Moved to the petting zoo with pigs, baby goats, calves and a really fast turkey. Yes, the mom next to Ellie looks concerned because the baby goat thinks her hair is hay. She however, thought it was hilarious.


Then picked the perfect pumpkin to take home. Ellie loves "little things" and picked the smallest one she could.


Mad dash through the hay maze...

I wonder where our next field trip will be!

Because he's one...

I know I still haven't done Bert and Amber's wedding, but that is going to take a little time. Until then I thought I'd show some pictures of Carter because he is very very very one!


Making goofy faces and noise ALL THE TIME!


He's learned how to get the cereal out of the pantry, dump it until it all falls out then sits on the floor and eats it. Does that say 4th child or what?


I left his yogurt too close to the edge of the table while I took care of something else for just a minute...Notice the big bloop on the floor? He walked in that all over the floor. The dog was happy. Me? Not so much.



Loves the dishwasher. Notice the book in there? Also loves books. Clean ones, wa ha.


But how can you not love that face?!
