Stylin'

Alex's hair had some spike after his bath tonight! How cute is that?!

Ferociously Cute!

After a visit to great grandma K's house, Alex helped us hand out candy to our neighborhood trick-or-treaters. We had a TON of visitors - we went through 3 huge bags of candy and had to turn our lights out before 8 o'clock! Alex LOVED watching all the people come and go - it will be fun next year to watch him toddle up to our neighbor's doorways to get his own treats! Hope everyone had as happy a Halloween as we did!

Trip to the Pumpkin Patch

This week, we took advantage of the absolutely gorgeous fall weather we've been having here in Kansas and visited the pumpkin patch! Alex went on his first hayrack ride and we picked out a perfect pumpkin fresh from the vine. There were a lot of really fun things for bigger kids at Applejack's - I think we'll have to make a trip out there an annual event. One of the coolest things about having kids is creating new family traditions of your own. The holidays certainly bring with them lots of opportunity to do this. The anticipation of Halloween is getting me excited for all the other fall/winter holidays - Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, Valentine's... It will be so awesome to experience them through Alex's fresh eyes!
