Halloween Sneak Peek

Brady's costume this year is a dragon!  Here's a sneak peek of what little B will be dressed as for all the festivities this weekend.  Isn't he adorable?



Pumpkin carving

This past weekend was pumpkin carving time at the Smoller house.  Brady joined in this year, though he wasn't quite sure about the entire process. 



Eyeing some of the pumpkin guts during cleaning.



Brady got to clean out some of his own pumpkin.  He thoughts it was funny to reach in and pull stuff out, but getting in with a spoon and cleaning everything off the sides didn't last long for him!

Smoller Family of Pumpkins

Smoller Family of Pumpkins lit up with candles at dusk.  Oooooh, spooky.

Waking Up

Just a little glimpse into mornings with Brady. You may have to turn up the volume, but you can hear him talking long before we even enter the room.

Announcement!

I think most of the Smoller Family readers already know, but just in case you don't, we will be adding to the family! 
Yep, Baby #2 should make an arrival sometime in April 2011.  This baby momma has been sick, sick, sick and oh so tired.  But now that we're past the first trimester things are getting much better.  I feel tons better and am finally starting to get an appetite and enjoying food. 

I bought a big brother shirt for Brady.  As usual, he could care less about what he's wearing and he had no intention of actually looking at the camera.  These shots are the best I could do.

Wagon ride

No day at the Pumpkin Patch is complete without a wagon ride of some kind.  We put the boys in a wagon and pulled them around for a bit.  I think this is the last year they'll both fit into the same wagon.  Next year they'll each get their own!

Pumpking Patch animals

The Pumpkin Patch had a small petting zoo, so we had to check it out, of course.  Most of the animals were smart enough to stay at the back of their pen, far away from the hands of curious youngters. 

The boys checked out the doves and the pigeons. 

The pigs, unlike the other animals, did stay near the front of the pen.  Perhaps because of the food? 

Looking for Pumpkins

You can't go to the pumpkin patch without picking out some pumpkins to take home.  So the B's looked and looked for pumpkins and found just what they wanted.
