Rearrange = Reinvestigate.

 This chick got a rearranged room and was excited to check it alllllll out again.  Her toys, that were all in the living room, have since been moved into her room, and it is now often a crazy zone.

She's such a wild child.

Popsicles with friends =)  mmm.

Play Date & Painting.

A couple months ago (Fall time .. I'm still so behind lol!)  we did a fall painting project with the girlies.  These two play so well together =).  I love Addy's face here.

They're too much fun! =)

Pumpkin Patch!

Ohhhh, this was another early and fun day!  We went to the pumpkin patch in Moriarty, so it was about 45 minutes away - so we got an early start, bundled up, and headed out.  

This little goofball cracks me up - resting her chin on her tray..

One of the first things we saw was this other little goofball, he looks like he's in time out haha!  They had so much fun stuff there!  We're DEFINITELY going again next year!  Petting zoo, bouncers, wagon rides, kernel box, go-karts, slides, mazes, and more.  We had such a blast!

You take a little hay ride to the pumpkin patch, so cute.

She inspected many pumpkins before picking her favorite.

But eventually found the right one, and tried to pick it up ...

And tried ... lol she's such a crack up!

They told us a story on the ride over about how the white pumpkins were rare and special, and we just thought they looked cool, plain and simple.  So a little family of white pumpkins is what we got =).

Botanical Garden Fun.

In October I got to do my first senior shoot =D -- Dominic's cousin Holly!  Isn't she stunning?!  We went to the Botanical Gardens and it was such a nice day out, walking around.  Dominic and Kayden met us down there & we decided would enjoy the day for a big longer.

It's way less crazy than most other places we take her, the zoo, etc. with much more room to run and play so we let her roam.  She found this little train that was going around and around, and that was SO interesting for quite a long time!

But not forever.  Kayden can quickly switch from concentrating mode to running mode.  ;)

And I had to play with all the millllllions (at least it feels like it) of flowers.  =)

Then while we were leaving we decided why not go walk around the aquarium?!  Lol.  We have a yearly pass to all 3; the zoo, the aquarium, and the botanical gardens, and don't use them nearly as much as we'd like to, so we were all excited we got to do both in one day - and that Kayden was still in a good mood!  ;)

I love that she points at things now and looks at us to see if we saw it too.  She seems like she's paying attention and I wonder what she's wondering in that little noodle of hers!

Balloon Fiesta! Special Shapes Style.

Back in October, we got to go the Special Shapes Day @ The Balloon Fiesta.  We woke up eaaarly, like 4am early & went to wake up little munchkin.  We rarely wake her up in the mornings, or at all, if we can help it .. so it's a special little treat to us when we can go in and spy on her while she sleeps for a minute or two =).  We all got bundled and headed out while it was still dark, to go find some shapes!

"Hiii!"

It took a lot of concentration to get her suckie back in while she had her mittens on ;)

This smiley little goofer has so much fun.  She loves to do stuff like this - where there is tons to look at.

Haha, we know her outfit was outrageous.  It was before we had really gotten her a 'winter wardrobe', and had to pull together cozy clothes at the last second lol.  Hence the warm pants from her Halloween Costume that obviously match perfectly with her only cozy jacket, at the time.  Haha!  Whopsie.  But this picture is precious none-the-less.

And thennnn, on the way home, we got a call saying that Dominic's Dad's dog had her puppies!  So we had to stop by and see the precious little things!! <3  Ohhh my, my heart melts.

<3  Freaking cute!
