Hello my little pumpkin! We've been doing all kinds of fun fall activities lately with the gang. Our first fall activity was going to the pumpkin patch at Gentry Farms. You went on your first hayride! That's about all you were big enough to do there. Next year you'll be walking around, and it'll be a totally different story!
Next was Ghouls at Grassmere at the zoo. The kids get dressed up and go to the zoo at night to do some trick or treating. Your brother was a shark, and you were a bat. We actually let Ryan pick out your costume and that's what he picked! It's not exactly what I would have picked for you, but you sure did look cute anyway! You were so good just hanging out in your car seat!
Next weekend was your school's Fallfest. Every year they have a big festival at the school where all of the kids dress up in costume and play games and eat. Well, your bat costume was cute and all, but it was a bunting-type costume (which mean it didn't have legs), so holding you and strapping you in the car seat was difficult. So you wore your pumpkin pajamas instead. You and your Daddy hung out most of the night while Ryan and I played some of the games. Then we switched and you and I stayed inside while Ryan and Daddy went to the bouncy house outside. But you were just as good as you always are!
The next day was Pumpkinfest in downtown Franklin. Again, you pretty much just hung out in the stroller! Pretty soon that's all going to change, I know!
You're growing so fast. For some reason, it seems to be flying by! You're already eating cereal! I must say though that you're not the cleanest eater ever. If I don't make it thick enough, it's usually sprayed all over me by the end of the feeding! But you do seem to like it!
I've also added some formula into your diet. I can't quite keep up with your milk intake, so we're having to do a little supplementing. It's actually been a good thing though. You see, you weren't the most "regular" person. When you were just drinking breastmilk, you'd poop MAYBE once a week. It was very disturbing to me that you could do that, but the doctor seemed to think it was OK. But once we started formula - watch out! It's like we pulled the plug! You poop multiple times a day and not little ones either. Poor Daddy has to soak your clothes along with Ryan's now. He's become the poop master! (Aren't you glad we talk about your pooping habits!?!)
You're also rolling over and laughing! You're very ticklish and I love to tickle you and make you laugh. Your smile is just so precious!!!
There's much more to tell, but I'll save it for another post. Until then, Kiss Kiss from Mommy!
