Pumpkins

Although not a picture related to pumpkins I thought I'd add this one from the week.  Ms. Katie is such a big helper.  She helps us empty the dishwasher and put up her laundry.  Notice her dress-up outfit? 

 We visited a pumpkin patch in Tulsa.  It was the middle of the week so they didn't have the pony rides, wagon rides or other big activities but, Katie didn't even notice.  She absolutely loved being able to run around in the field full of pumpkins.  They had about 15 playhouses scattered in the field with the pumpkins.  Katie visited every one!  A playhouse is definitely on our list for Ms. Katie.

 As we were loading up the car to leave the pumpkin patch Julie, Knox and Brex drove in.  So we unloaded and stayed a little bit longer so the kiddos could get some pictures together.  They were excited and surpised to see each other!

 We carved our pumpkin this weekend.  Katie (and Lillie) tried eating the pumpkin pulp and seeds.  Katie liked being able to scoop out all the seeds and stir them with her spoons.

 

 Notice how Lillie is right in the middle of things?

 

 Daddy did a great job carving!

 

Katie's 2nd birthday

Katie had a wonderful 2nd birthday party!  She had fun playing with everyone, eating her cake and opening her presents.  Thank you to everyone for making Katie's birthday so special!
