Take Two, Three, & Four.

Recap of pumpkin patch visits 2, 3, and 4.

It's not as extreme as it sounds, I promise. :)

Round 2 didn't even actually exist. I was really excited to check out a brand new pumpkin patch in our town. Their website was boasting about their 13 acre "farm" with pumpkins galore, hayrides, petting zoo, the whole sha-bang. So we decided to check it out. Instead of pulling up to an actual farm, we pulled up to a wooded patch of land that has been somewhat cleared out and only has a few pumpkins scattered about. There was a small petting zoo and a tractor ride thing, but that's about it. And they were charging $7 per person! Um, fail. We didn't even get Liam out of the car seat before we decided to just leave.

--------

Round 3 was more like a pumpkin stand with a hay bail maze and a little area for pictures. But they did have a good selection of pumpkins and gourds so we took a few pictures and stocked up on goodies for the front porch. I really didn't care to get a ton of photos; Liam just looked SO adorable in his jean overalls that I couldn't resist a few!

On our way home, my friend Nicole texted me and said her and her family were at our neighborhood fall festival so we decided to stop by and say hi!


Her two little ones, Gregory and Addison, giving the firefighter high fives! Oh, and Nicole will have her third by Sunday at the latest. Yay! Come on, Emma!


Mmm, cotton candy!

Monday morning Will took the day off and we headed to the Dallas Arboretum. They have a huge pumpkin display every year and it is gorgeous! This year's theme was Cinderella. We had hoped to get some family pictures and even brought our tripod along, but it was insanely packed with moms and babies so we didn't even bother.

We sure got some cute pictures of our little pumpkin though!







This picture cracks me up. I have a feeling I will be seeing a lot of this "fake" smile when he's older and doesn't want his picture taken!




We had a quick meal and a diaper/wardrobe change before round two!






This really nice woman stopped us and offered to take some pictures, so we did end up getting some family shots after all! I just love nice people :)


Cows & Cords.

Saturday night we went to a fall festival hosted by my mom's group. It was at a farm so Liam fit in perfectly!


Isn't he the cutest little cow???


We met out friends Tracey and Chuck and their little boy Max! Max and Liam are one week apart.


Cutest sock monkey I've ever seen!


Liam helping himself to some water.


Thanks Yaya for turning my child into the cutest animal on the farm!




It was super hot and there wasn't much for the babies to do so we only stayed about an hour. But there were tons of cute games, bounce houses, pony rides, etc. for the kids so next year will probably be a different story. It was fun though, and I'm glad Liam got to wear his first Halloween costume!

This is Sunday before church. We pretty much take pictures every Sunday now because I love getting Liam all dressed up!


Please excuse my grossness (no time for a shower that morning) and focus on the cuteness of Liam's corduroys! Will's mom got them for him and I'm kind of obsessed.


I've got four more blog posts in the making right now because I'm SO behind on blogging....and in life. So stay tuned!

Finally!

I finally figured out how to upload videos!

It only took me 6 months. Seriously.

I have a million videos of Liam that I've taken on either our video camera or my DSLR. I've tried uploading them about a thousand times and they never work. Why?? These I took on my iphone and they upload just fine. Technology + Me = FAIL.

These are two from yesterday. The first video is Liam laughing hysterically over me saying "Pizza!" Why? I don't know, but I love it! The second is Liam eating and saying "mmm!"




Remember to pause my playlist!

Enjoy the cuteness!

WILW!

What I'm Loving Wednesday!
{linking up with Jamie}

1. My Erin Condren planner came in today! Ahh! I can't wait to fill it up!


2. Sneak peak of Liam's 6 month shoot this morning! I die!


3. It's all cozy and rainy today!

I might have to make some hot chocolate tonight and wear thick socks just because :)


4. William and I took Liam to Toys R Us earlier this week to do some Christmas shopping. We found a lot of fun toys and so did Liam. Too bad his little feet can't reach the pedals quite yet!


5. My mom is here for the day (she came along for the photo shoot) and we are going to do some crafting. I'm excited!

My inspiration...
