Pumpkin Patch

So yesterday amidst all the moodiness between our boys we managed to make it to the pumpkin patch. Parker looks like a tourist that just flew in from Cali (that lost his tan on the way). He INSISTED on wearing shorts during this brisk day. And the bag, it's his camera...he also INSISTED on wearing it so he could take pictures. And this would be the perfect child, wearing the perfect clothes for pumpkin picking, choosing the perfect pumpkin, looking at his Mommy with a PERFECT smile to record this glorious brisk fall day. This is the "perfect" look he gave me. To me it totally screams I am 4 and willing to do whatever it takes to ruffle my parents feathers...and maybe get few laughs too. Love him. A better touristy shot. I talked him out of the green pumpkin. ;)
And sweet Coley holding his pumpkin...that we didn't get. He held onto this pumpkin forever and then all of a sudden put it down to search and keep on searching for another one. We think
he grabbed it because it was the perfect size of a football. If you know Coley at all he LOVES balls.
He was so giddy and just dancing around all the pumpkins saying, "punkin, punkin" over and over again. Notice his shirt it says "Little Monster" which is totally fitting for him.

Before we headed to the patch we had to make an unexpected visit to see the doc again. Coley's ears are no better. He's on another round of antibiotics. This time I asked for chewables so I could crush them and put them in yogurt, applesauce, or oatmeal. Well this morning it worked in yogurt, but this afternoon it somewhat worked in applesauce...he only ate half of the applesauce. He is strong willed just like his older brother. Next time, I may just have to ask for the shot. Even if we do have to pay for it out of pocket.
This evening we went to our church bonfire/hayride. We had a good time and the boys loved the inflatables. The best part was I have someone that may be able to bring a pony to Coley's party on the 1st. So excited about that.
God is good! Yay God!
