Max at the Pumpkin Patch

Fall is definitely one of the most wonderful times of the year.  Even though it's not as cool as I would like, it's still so much fun, especially with Max.  Last year was an awesome time celebrating his first fall, his first pumpkin and his first Halloween and this year is even better!  Max loves pumpkins and I love hearing him scream, "PUNNNN-KIN!" We had a lot of fun at Oma's Pumpkin Patch yesterday, despite the huge crowds!  (The line was insane when we got there, which I was not anticipating at all, but it's always worth it to see Max's smile at all the new experiences.)  They had little pumpkins for the kids to pick, a bunch of super smelly animals, bouncy areas, cotton seed slides, hay rides and more.  Max was a bit small for a lot of the activities because I didn't want him to get run down by all the big kids, but we had fun regardless!

Max was definitely way more concerned with exploring than staying still for my photos, oh well!

One of Max's favorite things to do was lift the pumpkins up and say "heavy!"  He tried with so many different pumpkins, most of which were bigger than his body!

These photos of Max & Kyle make me so happy.  Have I mentioned that I love them?!

I tried really hard to get Max to sit next to me with a pumpkin on his lap, but he simply was not interested.  He did end up stealing my big pumpkin though!

The highlight of Max's day was definitely driving the tractors.  Every time we walked past one he yelled, "tractor!" and wanted to sit on it and drive.  He's the cutest thing & I especially love that lost photo above of his excited face while driving!

Max enjoyed checking out the chickens too!

I'm not sure how it's possible, but he just keeps getting cuter and cuter... as evidenced by the photos above!

Bonus Photo: This was from last week when we were going to go to the pumpkin patch, but it was 85 degrees that day, so we changed our plans! But, how could I not share!?

I hope you're enjoying your fall filled with pumpkins, sweaters & happy babies.  I always love seeing pumpkin patch photos all over Facebook, so I hope you enjoyed Max's photos!
