Outside in October

Mommy likes Autumn best.

Goodbye pesky gnats/mosquitoes/other annoying bugs!

Of course, there are now a bazillion stink bugs invading Maryland (yuck!) all over everywhere...  and the ladybugs are back...  and deer ticks, but still, the leaves are pretty, the temperature is more likeable and so we play outside a lot.  Yes, I have resorted to using popsicles as bait to lure him back inside when the time calls...  boo, Momma!!! lol

I hold my sweet puffin baboo as he falls asleep.  He turns towards me and says, " Mama," and then his sleepy little eyes roll back into his droopy lids, two more sucks on the binky, and  he    is      out :)  I almost cried, he is such a gentle squash of my heart just bursting forth to be his own self!  He is growing and learning and growing some more.  I am overwhelmed at how it is possible to be more in love with him everyday...  and am capturing every moment in my heart and soul to save up for the inevitable times when he will unwittingly attempt to break my heart by doing exactly what he is supposed to do - live his beautiful life as himself.  My sweet baboo puffin!  xo  I love you!

 

 

We went to another pumpkin patch...

@ 15 Months (10.8.09)

15 Months?!!? 15 Months?!!!!! Seriously, how has it been 15 months since we went to the hospital to be induced (UGH!) and birth our sweet baboo puffin?!!?

CrAzY

Fuh reals.

We were unsuccessful at taking a good chair shot this month :(

So, we played on Gyffy co-co-pop instead :)

and then we went outside to explore stuff

Prima Tana spent the night with us this week while Uncle Corey was out of town and poor Aunt Sydney had a yucky illness :'( (she is a little better today)

We had spaghetti. Some of it even made it into his tummy...

Benjamin can feed himself!

Tana eats like a lady with her utensils!!!

Yesterday we went to Prima Tana's school for Fall Fun Day :) Benjamin wore his cute little monkey sweater suit... Is he going to sue me for these photos when he is up for the Surgeon of the Year award? Or do I just need to start his therapy savings now?

Momma! Stop trying to photograph me in this stupid chair!

Be the Monkey...with a little car

Momma loves me!

Yup, I look like a monkey going to a Fall Fun Day Festival

She bounces like Tigger!

She is too beautiful to stop the photographs!

Happy Fall, ya'll

JUMBO's Pumpkin Farm

We drove over to the other side of the mountain and visited Jumbo's pumpkin farm last weekend. Benjamin went crazy making all of the farm animal signs!

Benjamin signs, "pig"

This year Tana notices the farmy smells! :)

Puffins LOVE goats!!!

Prima Tana

Prima Tana and Benjamin!

Benjamin and Prima Tana rode horses!!! My apologies for the pictures with Benjamin being so very small - the larger I made them, the larger I was (I am SO not into being fat, I'm really not sure why I am doing it), and the less inclined I was to share them - so you get the un-cropped versions of far away, courtesy of Octavio, the photographer :)

Prima Tana

Benjamin Puffin!

Benjamin shows off his horsey-legs - He was demonstrating how he rode the horse!

Handsome Fellows XOXO

Supah Strong SupahStar!

Tiny Puffins with tiny pumpkins

Tiny Puffins with a GIANT pumpkin!

Final measurements before we took our leave...

See ya next year, Jumbo's (or next week!)!

It's SO crazy to think this was just last year's visit when he spent the entire time asleep in the Moby :) Babies are babies for about a millisecond!!!
