Pumpkin Patch

No Halloween season is complete without a trip to a local pumpkin patch! And in our case, local was just a few blocks away as the area we live in still has quite a large argricultural presence. Check me out on the cool tractors...

Load me up Daddy I'm ready to go!

And look how well this pumpkin fits in the wheelbarrow with me. It's almost bigger than I am.

And look how many more we found!

But don't worry I can still fit in the wheelbarrow with all those pumpkins.

On our way out we found one last one that was just my size so we went home with 5 pumpkins!

I know, I know...it's been 6 months since our last post! I can't believe how quickly 2011 has gone. I hope you enjoy getting caught up with the first half of Gabe's 2011.

I've realized that as Gabe gets older it's harder to have new reasons to take pictures and blog about his growth. Now that he's 4 (Oh My Gosh!) and even through 3 it's not like kids really hit many milestones or change a lot month to month. So, I guess I'm going to use that as my excuse for why I don't update this blog as often as I used to.

As Gabe matures he has taken on a very sweet, genuine personality. He is quick to pay a compliment, "Mommy, I like your dress."; or very sensitive like covering his eyes during a "scary" moment in a movie or asking why someone is crying/angry/negative emotion in a book or show. His interest in how things work continues and his physical aptitude is finally catching up to his way above average language skills.

He really is a real, albeit little, person that Matt and I love taking new places, exposing him to new foods and experiences. He is full of opinions, questions and observations. And of course asserts himself via talking back and tantrums occassionally. He is a very easy child and for that we are forever grateful as we get to spend more time having fun than discipling or otherwise.

I always make the promise with best intentions, so I'll say it again that I'm going to try to post more often. Until next time...
