Some October Antics

Fall seems to be flying by. We've been getting into the decorating and preparing for Halloween. Last weekend the intention was to make bats using hand cutouts. Ryan decided he did not his hand traced, but that he did enjoy glue and glitter very much. Trev was all about the project.

Sometime while I was trying to de-glitter the kitchen Trev did something that warranted time out. So John directed him to the corner, but lately when Ryan hears 'time out' he gets up and goes to sit in the corner regardless of who's name comes before the phrase. So John decided that they were pretty cute sitting in skeleton jail... it was probably not the most effective time out...



We went out to Murray farms last weekend. We go out there every year for the pumpkin patch and activities. The feed corn pit near the entrance was probably Ryan's favorite part.













And the annual pumpkin measure stick

Ryan of the Corn

When we were in the patch area looking for pumpkins Trev handed Ryan what he declared to be a Ryan sized pumpkin. Ryan seemed pretty unsure what to do with it. The first one Trev handed him he tried to take a bite out of, made a face and then set it back down.




Trev was looking for big pumpkins to sit on like his cousin Gracie... couldn't find one as big as a Texas pumpkin


Giving the pumpkin loves

We went to the petting zoo on the way out. The day was pretty long for Ryan and he was not in too good of a mood. He pretty much hung out watching the pig and was not humored by any of the other animals walking nearby. Trev really liked the chickens.
