carving the littlest pumpkin

evie decided she wanted to carve the pumpkin she picked at the pumpkin patch and I have to say, I was fine with that! especially because it was the smallest pumpkin we had and since I ended up doing most of the work myself. she wasn't really into the 'pumpkin goo' and quickly lost interest after touching it. hoping for more carving fun next year!

pumpkin patch trip

Ah, the first big school field trip - and definitely one I was excited about - especially since it was Evie's first official field trip and to a place that screams, "fall is here"! Unlike last year when we went, the temps were just perfect and Evie wasn't afraid to ride the tractor-trailer and the can train. She was determined to find a cute "little" pumpkin in the patch and was happy to take the first one she spotted. I, on the other hand, was bound and determined to find the perfect one. What a fun morning!

"I can pedal!"

What a big day last Monday was when Evie finally perfected, or should I say, figured out how to pedal her tricycle. I was so excited for her and knew she was so proud of herself. Now she not only rides outside, she insists on bringing her trike inside, too. She just can't get enough!
