The Pumpkin Patch

Nick and I took Silas to the pumpkin patch on Monday. This pumpkin patch also happens to be a petting zoo with a train you can ride. Every little kid's dream, I'm sure.  Silas's favorite part of this place was the corn box. The train ride and the animals, not so much. Now, here is a dilemma I am facing with this post. Do I mix all the pictures up, so as not to bore you with multiple pictures in the same spot all at once, or do I lump all the like pictures together so that you can have the full chronological effect of our outing? This issue has been occupying way too much space in my brain with my blog posting lately, and I am perplexed about which is the preferred method.  This is important stuff, because, as Nick said yesterday (in his most annoyed voice), "This is not a fun family outing. This is a photo shoot." I hate to drop such a heavy matter on you, but please take a moment to ponder this for yourself and weigh in with your valued opinions on the matter. To accommodate all opinions, including the conflicting ones in my head, I chose to do a combination of lumping and mixing. On with it....Even though he never cracked a smile, the beginning of the train ride was pretty smooth. By the end though, he was grabbing me and trying to claw his way out of his seatbelt.Silas has gotten really into biting these days. That T-Rex was all the inspiration he needed for this photo. Fitting, since his Halloween costume this year is a T-Rex.  You can see last year's trip to the same pumpkin patch here. What a difference a year makes...I miss my tiny Batman baby! But, this little toddler is pretty freaking fun.

  1. This little babe is so loved! I kept coming up with all these faces that just love that little guy. I hope he never struggles with knowing that he is loved. BUT if he does, I will be one of the first people to drive over and speak about how loved he is and how that has always been true for his life.

  2. I really enjoy all of your pictures of Silas. Love those expressions. Can he be any cuter. Someimes thei teeth are hurtng when they bite. Also when they really get excited. The little girl I watch does both.

    1. Thanks Debby! Yeah, he has a molar coming in, so his teeth are definitely hurting him these days. But, he does also bite when he gets excited. It's pretty funny to watch. (Not so funny when you are the one being bitten, but he usually goes easy on us.)
