October Pics

October 9th

We took our weekend wagon ride to see the horses.  Jacen is more interested in talking to them instead of petting them.  He wanted to stop to the see the miniature horses and the "big" horses. 

After the wagon ride, we took his tricycle to the front yard.  Jacen enjoyed having the sidewalk and driveway to drive on.

Playing with Yellow cars.  Mommy tries to make Jacen learn but he wasn't interested in learning the color yellow :(

October 10th

Daddy took Jacen to McDonald's for supper, so I could scrapbook for the evening.  It was great down time!!!!  And Jacen loved it because he got to drink Dr. Pepper.  Shame on Daddy!!!

October 14th

Grandma and Grandpa came to visit and we went to the park to play!!!!

Grandma reading to Jacen.  He loved it!!!!

Lunch at Chick-fil-a with Grandparents

Science Spectrum with Grandma and Grandpa

It looks like they had lots of fun!!!

Jacen was really concentrating on his conversation.

Next, they returned to the playground again!!!!

October 16th

Our weekly wagon ride to see the animals.  This time we saw the donkeys!!!!

October 19th

Daddy snapped a picture of Jacen reading books one morning before preschool. 

Pumpkins!!!

We spent the day shopping for Halloween.  We found Jacen's Halloween costume, bought candy, and went to the Pumpkin Patch.  We took some pictures of Jacen :)

He has started making this goofy smile!!!

He was telling us something about himself :)

Picking out his pumpkin - deep in thought

Our Proud Boy!!!

Our Silly Boy!

Cheese!!!!

We bought a Mr. Potato Head decorating kit to make a Cowboy Pumpkin :)

Jacen really enjoyed it, but didn't understand why I wanted him to leave the pieces alone once they were placed.  So we played with Mr. Potato Head afterwards!!!

Jacen holding his hand :)

Jacen and I put the pumpkins in the front of our house.  He was talking to the pumpkin :)

In the next two pictures, he is trying to place "his" pumpkin on top of our decorated pumpkin.  In the second shot watch his face :)

Holding the pumpkin's hand again :)

Corn Maize

We spent 3 hours at the Corn Maize on Saturday.  We enjoyed BBQ lunch, looking at the water, seeing the animals, taking a hay ride, going through a kid maze, and going halfway through the corn maize.  It was a wonderful family day!!!!!

Jacen posing as a sheep :)

He loved the water and even wanted to get in :)

KID MAZE

He had a blast doing the Kid Maze.  He went back to it over and over.  We loved his facial expressions in these three pictures.  He seemed to be loving it in two and in deep concentration in the middle one.

IN THE CORN MAIZE

Jacen loved it at first.  He was just running and telling us where to go!!!  Then he got tired and wanted to be carried :(  We only went halfway through.  He definitely reminded us to enjoy our time the three of us today and not just worry about finishing the maize. 

He was very interested in the corn signs throughout the maize.

He kept wanting to go in the corn field not on the path.  He stood in this spot for a while drinking his water. 

This is a view from one of the bridges inside the maize.

THE HAY RIDE

The Pumpkin Patch that we stopped at during our Hay Ride.

Jacen enjoyed looking at the pumpkins and gourds.

He picked out a few pumpkins and then put them back.  He didn't want to take one with us.  Maybe we will make it to another pumpkin patch to buy some pumpkins.

We had a wonderful day as a family followed by a long long nap for Jacen!!!!
