Festivities

How many fall festivals can you attend in one weekend?  We crashed 3!!  Seabreeze was fun, but we only caught one picture.  One worth catching…Isla leading her brother over to the fun zone. 

The Zoo spooktacular was, well, spectacular!  Isla was ready to go with her hot pink pail and Leo was feeding off of her excitement.  Once we got there, however, it was a different story.  Leo sat frozen in the stroller while Isla trick-or-treated and danced her way through the zoo. 

(The Pnut was ready too.  And was cuter than any owl on display)

Brannon, Heather, and Ava came along as well and the cousins had a wonderful time together looking at the hundreds of carved pumpkins and the kids dressed up in their costumes. 

Riding the carousel wasn’t bad either…

Like I said, sat frozen the whole time. 

The next night we headed over to Beaches Chapel for their fall festival.  They had bounce houses, face painting, cake walks, hotdogs, cotton candy and more.  Leo, bless his little heart, still needs a year or two before he’s brave enough for all the crazy fun but Isla jumps in head first.  He will, however, be the first to step up to a craft table.  It’s safe and grounded.  They painted cards and pumpkins for Mommy and Daddy. 

Palmer was once again strapped on to Mommy but he loves it and loves Coach too….

Because the pumpkin patches will be gone next week I had to take the boys for one last hurrah.  And this time, Leo climbed the haystacks and slid down.  One small step for him, but huge in Mommy’s eyes.

This one….he’s going to be 6 months old tomorrow.  Seriously?  How can that be?  It’s about time for us to have another one right?  Ha, that’s everyone’s response.  But, Me?  I’m enjoying these 3 miracles God has blessed me with and loving every second of life RIGHT NOW.  Palmer is amazing.  He is such a happy baby boy and smiles at everything.  He “talks” himself to sleep and even starts while he’s nursing.  It’s hilarious.  He loves peas, green beans, pears, and prunes.  He sits up and even lunges for toys.  He still wont roll from his back to front but maybe he’ll just skip that all together.  Isla and Leo didn’t crawl until they were 8 months old so he’s got 2 months to prepare.  In the meantime he’s busy grabbing mommy’s hair and lips while I’m feeding him.  I kiss his precious palm and he laughs every time.  I love this age and cherish every second of him.

Halloween is Monday…we can’t wait!!!
