Pumpkin Patch Fun 2012

Kyle and I were so excited to take Andrew to the pumpkin patch because we couldn't wait to see Andrew's face at the sight of all the pumpkins and fun within the pumpkin patch. Not to mention, now that Andrew was walking, we were excited to let him roam around and to personally pick his own pumpkin.

To our surprise, Andrew's first take on the Pumpkin patch was that of horror. He was terrified! I put him down to walk around and he clinged to my leg. We think that he thought the pumpkins were balloons. He hates balloons! Absolutely hates them! Eventually, he warmed up to the pumpkin patch after watching all the other children run around. And then, he was ecstatic! He couldn't get enough of the hay, belly laughed at his first encounter with the pigs and the pig races, and stood tall at the height chart! It's crazy to think that just a year ago, he was only about 6 weeks old when we brought him here and barely measured 2 feet tall. Now, he stood alone and was roaming independently! What was also fun to observe was all the first time parents making raspberry noises to get their little ones to smile on their first visit to the pumpkin patch. That was Kyle and I just last year! My, my, my, the time really has flown!

Such a big boy!

Daddy giving driving tips!

Just the right size!

Not really sure what was happening here but obviously, he was excited about something!

He kept great watch over his pumpkins!

He guarded them from his big brother...
