And on that farm they had a..........Connor!







Mommy and Daddy took me to a pumpkin farm so I could pick out my own pumpkin. They had so many cool things to do there. We rode on a hay ride and picked out our pumpkins. We went to see the animals and I fed the goats corn ~ they don't like theirs cooked like we do! They had a big hay slide that I went down a bunch of times ~ it was FAST! They had a hay maze but that was boring because I am so smart and figured it out in like 3 minutes!! I got to "drive" a tractor for a little while ~ it was a red tractor. Then we went and played in the Corn Crib. It was a huge pool of corn. It was like a huge sand box but with corn instead of sand and WAY DEEPER!! You could jump off of hay into the corn and pretend to swim around ~ it was soo fun! I had corn everywhere.

Aren't I cute in my farm gear!!!

First Day of School!




I finally started preschool! This was my first day. I went for a few hours with my Daddy. I loved it ~ I played and played! I think I'm going to learn a lot while I'm there. One of my favorite things is their mini-potty. They have a real toilet but its tiny ~ for tiny hineys!

More Thomas the Train Day!







After we rode the train we did lots of other fun things. We played on a couple of the big trains. We went and played with the train set for a while with some other kids. We were all very good at sharing but I can't say the same for some of the other kids that were there. Mommy and Daddy bought me a rolling Thomas the Train backpack ~ which I LOVE!! I roll it everywhere now. I think Mommy and Daddy have tricked me now though ~ they put my diapers and wipes and stuff in there and now I have to carry my own diaper bag!!
We also did lots of sidewalk chalk art and played with bubbles. They had a band there and we were dancing all around have a good time. They had a LEGO Thomas too! We played HARD ~ It was so much fun.

Trip to see Thomas the Train







I got to go see Thomas the train with Mommy, Daddy, Aidan, Jamie and Erick. We had to get up really early and drive. We all rode together in our car. The daddies in the front driving, me & Aidan on the second row watching videos, and the mommies in that back talking! We saw fire trucks, big trucks, airplanes and lots of trains. We even got to ride Thomas the train. My cousin Reese and his Mommy and Daddy met us there and we all rode together. We had so much fun. I love trains so much that I am going to be a train engineer for Halloween and I'm going to have a train birthday party. WOO HOO!

Fall Festival





My buddy Aidan invited me to his Fall Festival at his school. It was awesome! They had a moon bounce (which I did not want to do AT ALL), a petting zoo / pony rides, a train ride, and lots of other big blow up slides and stuff. My favorites were the train (of course) and the BIG SLIDE!! It was really big. We had pizza for lunch and Aidan was being really funny eating his!!

Handsome Man!




Aren't I ADORABLE! I was the ring bearer in Stacey and Nash's wedding. I did really well but only for Smarties!! Mommy was a bridesmaid and she had to stand at the front of the aisle and show me Smarties and I walked right to her! It was freezing so I was really glad I had a tux on and not a strapless dress like my Mommy ~ burrrr!

Horseeeees!






When we were in Boston we also got to ride on the Merry-go-round! I loved it! Daddy helped me but I could have done it by myself. Mommy rode one too ~ silly! The merry-go-round was right smack in the middle of the highway. It was on a median that separated 2 different 2 lane roads ~ weird huh?!??!

Children's Museum ~ Boston







On our way back to Stacey's house we stopped in Boston for another day. We went to the Children's Museum which was AWESOME. We played hard in that place!! I made an umbrella with the tinker toys, I climbed into the bridge (crazy Mommy did too), I drove the Bobcat, I climbed the rock wall, and all kinds of other things. We really had a great time. My favorite part was driving the red car that had a radio in it ~ I would have done that all day if Mommy and Daddy had let me!!

Rocks n Forts!








Fort Revere was in the same town that we were staying in. We went and walked around in the forts ~ they were kind of creepy! We also went to one of the beaches and climbed around on the rocks. I LOVE rocks! I was collecting as many as my hands would hold and stuffing them in my pockets. Mommy is still finding rocks in my laundry!!

Mini Me!







Here's some more pics of my Daddy and I on the beach in Hull. I'm Daddy's Mini Me! We didn't mean to dress alike but we definitely look like twins!

World's End







One day while we were on our trip we went to this place called "World's End". It was really pretty! It was 2 islands about 1 mile wide each that were connected by this tiny little path. There were completely surrounded by water. We walked a little ways and looked around. You could see Boston in the distance across the water. It was a rough hike because Daddy's back was killing him and Mommy was trying to push me in the stroller which wasn't exactly designed for hiking trails. Plus, it was getting close to nap time so I was sort of cranky! It was still a lot of fun though!!

The Beach ~ Hull, Mass.








The next day of our trip we drove about 30 minutes outside of Boston to a little beach town called Hull. It was really cute and the beaches were really pretty. We stayed in a hotel on the beach. Mommy was mad when we got there because there was a really big cement wall separating the hotel from the beach. We figured out why when the tide came in! When the tide was out there was tons and tons of beach to run around on. I loved it! I played with my bucket in the sand and ran around ~ it was so fun! When the tide came in there was no beach and the water was half way up the cement wall ~ crazy! There were 4 different beaches in that little town ~ a rocky beach, a pebble beach, a dark sand beach and a light sand beach. We went to all of them. My favorite one was the one that was right outside our hotel! The water was FREEZING though! We never even considered going swimming even though there were a few old men that would swim laps out there every day ~ CRAZY NUTS!! We had lots of good food while we were there too. We went to this little place in town for breakfast one morning and they made me a mickey mouse blueberry pancake that was so big it was hanging off of the plate!! We also went to this restaurant that had a special on lobsters that Mommy was really excited about. She got 2 lobsters for $14 ~ she was very happy about it! She had to wear a bib like a baby while she was eating it ~ it was really funny!!

Boston ~ Aquarium!





Mommy and Daddy and I went on vacation in September to Massachusetts and New Hampshire. The first day we were there we went to Boston with Mommy's friends Stacey and Nash. I love Stacey and Nash and their dog Bridger ~ I said their names the ENTIRE hour trip to Boston from Stacey's house ~ "Sassy, Sassy, Nash, Sassy, Bridger, Sassy, Nash, Bridger!" . First we went to the aquarium in Boston. It was so much fun! We saw penguins, jellyfish, sharks, seals and all kinds of fish. My favorites were the jellyfish and sharks. I got to touch a starfish ~ it was yucky! We walked around on the dock and got to see all of the boats ~ there were tons of them!
After that we went to eat some sgetti! It was yummy ~ I got it all over me! After that Mommy and Daddy put me in my stroller and the rest is a blur! I was so tired I passed out. Apparently we rode the subway, walked across town, and rode on a hour and a half long Duck Tour ride through Boston (one that drives on land and water!) and I slept through the whole thing. My Daddy got to drive when they were in the water ~ I can't believe I missed it!!
I woke up right as the tour was ending. We had to ride the subway again on the way back and now I know that it isn't exactly the "choo choo train" I would prefer to ride!!
We had such a great day!
