1st Pumpkin Patch and other updates

I'm amazed at myself right now! 2 updates in one month?? Ha ha! I may even be able to squeeze in a 3rd once I get her Halloween costume done!

On Saturday, I decided that I needed to share a fun tradition with my daughter. I know that she had no idea really of what was going on, but nevertheless, I have never missed a year at the pumpkin patch, and I wasn't about to start missing out now. So, off to Vala's Pumpkin Patch we went!

Vala's is a tradition among many of the families in Omaha, and even though they don't change much, it still draws crowds of families to it every year. It was super busy there on Saturday, but we didn't mind and still had a blast. I wasn't able to get all the pictures I wanted, but I still think I got some good ones!

 

 Here is peanut with daddy!

 Now she's enjoying the big chair that the witch usually sits in! I was going to take her picture standing in the big cauldron, but it was really gross inside of it, so we nixed that!

 Ride'em cowgirl...she's not impressed lol.

 My little Cinderella in her pumpkin coach!

 We arrived just in time to watch the pig show! Suweeeee!

 

In the Storybook Barn we saw Snow White and a fairy princess! 

And swung with Raggedy Anne!  We also got to go to the Dragon Show and watch him chomp on a pumpkin! We ran into our friend Oliver and his mommy Diane and friend Melinda as well! We love finding friends out and about! 

 Here we are with Mommy on the tractor pull!

She did so good the whole time we were there. Next year will be so much more fun because she will take notice of more things and we'll be able to do a few more things with her that we couldn't this time. She is the cutest pumpkin in the patch though!

 I scored this awesome toy for $3 at a garage sale and she LOVES it! I just need to get batteries in it for her to completely enjoy it. The light is supposed to come on and the chair does things as well. But you can see just how much she does like it now without sounds!

 

 And what kiddo does not like to see themselves in the mirror? I don't think she's figured out that it's her she's looking at, but it's so fun to watch her play with her "friend" when we go shopping. I just couldn't help myself and had to take pictures lol.

Ah, my beautiful little girl. She's growing up so fast and I feel like time is just slipping away already. I wish I could get the hands of time to slow down. But for now, I'll enjoy the ride and continue to document how she's growing and watching her become her own little person. <3
