Cornbellys Pumpkin Patch

On a whim we decided to go to Cornbelly's Pumpkin Patch. It was such a great day.
They had these huge pillows you could jump on. Caden had a blast!


Seriously giant pillows. I was half tempted to try it out myself.

You give Macey a slide and she is a girl in Heaven.

When did she get to be so big?

Water Pumping station. You could race the ducks. Macey just walked back and forth trying to grab one before the big kids did.

Seriously as good as it gets with these two, but I love them both eventhough they wont give me a good picture of the both of them.

The had a cow train and we decided Macey was big enough. Great decsion. She loved, perfect speed and she just smiled and just said waved the whole time.

Caden thought it was cool too. Obvious right?

The Cow Train

I took a picture of the driver to tell you the story. I said to caden "that guy looks familar, who do you think he is?" he smiles and says "santa" I said "I think he is, I bet he just came down here to make sure you kids are being good." He was smiling ear to ear. The driver heard and said "Do you know my favorite song?" and then he said "Dashing through the snow" And he said "do you know what I drive when I'm not driving a Tractor? Reindeer. " Caden's jaw literally dropped. Seriously he was in shock and so excited.

Dont you just want to squeeze this face?

Farmer Caden.

Rolling pin Slide

There was so much more I didnt take pictures of. Fun was had by all. We did a corn maze which turns out with two kids, it feels more like being stuck in traffic with no map. Maybe we"ll try again next time.

Halloween Party

My Hawkeye Football player. So cute, I mean scary.

All the kiddos dressed in there halloween best.



My good friend Christy and her sweet little girl Callie

The kids made halloween necklaces, Played Halloween Bingo and decorated Cookies. And then played like crazy. It went well and was a lot of fun to do but I was so busy with it all I hardly got any pictures of it all. I should of Eric had that detail. Oh well hindsight.

Dress Up

We decided to play a little dress with tha halloween costumes. Macey channeling her inner Tracy Turnblad from Hairspray.
Next up Toddlers and Tiaras
Such a precious Bunny

Modeling Caden's first costume. So precious.

A little of this and a little of that

With October here...finally. We have set up the halloween decorations. Talked about the pumpkin patch's we will be going to. And planning costumes etc.

Going through the old costume box and found this bad boy. Of course Macey was more then happy to model and wear it.

She is such a hardcore rocker.

Put Macey in the baby stroller and they both had a blast. Didnt need to fasten Macey in she was stuck in it.

Random Caden

Caden went on a feild trip with his class to Wheeler Farm and had a blast looking at all the farm animals.

This is Caden with his really good friend Kaydence. Not a very good pic and her sister is on the Left of Caden.

Caden has now reached the idolizing dad faze. And He loves football. Seriously thats what he wants to be for halloween and has been begging me for months to sign him up. But they dont til they are 8. So one day he says" Mom, let's pertend I'm 8 today and sign me up for football". Another day I was telling Eric something and I said "it doesnt make sense" And Caden says I know what makes sense playing football".

He knows all about touchdowns. Running back, quarterback, defense, fumble, nfl teams, stiff arm block etc.

He's a great Running Back

He's going....

And it's a TOUCHDOWN


He sure is funny. He loves Halloween but is deathly terrified of some things and will hide. I hope next year he's not so scared.

Random Macey

Macey is a little light switch. Flip up happy flip down angry. We have tried Dairy free diet suggested per her docotor. We noticed some difference I'm on the fence and its quite difficult.



She is moving around mainly like she's paralyzed she scoots and drags her legs. She can cruise and even takes a few steps but is quite frightened to do so.

She is so glamorous.She loves sunglass's, hats. And will pull my off to put on herself.

Do you see the attitude in her face?

She is a teething machine. She has two top teeth poke through. And getting more on the bottom.

If you can't tell she loves oreos and Mommy has given in more this time and I let her have a lot more I wouldnt let Caden as a baby. Can you believe Oreos are dairy free? tells you a lot about the cream filling.
