October

My favorite month of the year; time for pumpkin spice lattes and homemade pumpkin bread, the leaves are beginning to change color and the weather is cool.
This October was a very busy month for us, thus why I am just now updating my blog. It started off by Brody accepting a job in Omaha, NE and ended with moving. I will post more on our move in the next posts.
Clayton and I went with our friends to Bishop's Pumpkin Patch the middle of the month. As you can see Clayton had a blast. We went on a train ride, tractor ride to the pumpkin patch, and played with the farm animals.

He looks like such a little man in this picture!

My mom was visiting and got to go to the pumpkin patch with us too!

We celebrated 2 year birthday's with a party! Clayton and I have been in a mom/baby playgroup since he was born and we have continued to get together and have celebrated two birthday's now with all the little ones. It has been so amazing to watch these little ones grow and share the joys and challenges of motherhood with the moms.

The other thing I love about October is getting our family costume together for Halloween; we started this tradition on Clayton's 1st Halloween. This year we were Scooby-doo and the gang. We did a little trick or treating in our neighborhood and then went to our friends' Halloween party.
After a couple houses, Clayton figured out what he was suppose to do. He was very excited about the candy (he had never seen so much before). He overdosed on sugar that night, and was a little monster who finally when to bed at 11:30! Thank goodness Halloween is only once a year!!
