Fun at "The Farm"

I know I'm kind of going backwards, but, I have so many things to post. It is what it is!
A couple weeks ago, we went to a fun place in Snohomish called "The Farm." We have had a tradition to go to the Pumpkin Patch every year with Jake's brother, and his family. This year Jer & Mo decided to plant their own pumpkin patch, (it turned out awesome, by the way), so we chose another activity instead. It was so fun. We toured a large Corn Maze, which thanks to Jake and Jer's trusty map skills, we didn't get lost once! There was also a Hay Maze, with a slide that fell into the hay - the kids loved it, a duck race, corn to swim in, play toys, and farm animals to pet and look at. It was such a great day, and a fun way to celebrate the beautiful fall season.

Enjoy the pictures! Tristan spent most of the time in the stroller, because that boy loves to run away from Mommy.

I'm so glad our kids love their cousins so much!

Very typical for around our house. "Rohnie, give me a hug. I love you!" "Okay, if I have to."

The babies loved the hay maze. There was also a GIANT tube slide that they went on. I was surprised they weren't scared a bit!

I kinda wanted to hop in the corn too. I looked way fun.

Happy Fall everyone! I love this season!

My Little Taste of Heaven

My sister, and nephew have been visiting this past week. Here's the babe. Can you say pure deliciousness?

The Boys

It seems like a lot of my posts have been about Tay lately, and I didn't want the boys to feel neglected. Not that they care. . . but, for prosperity, ya know? These guys, actually, take up most of my time.

Rohne has always been my challenging child. He definitely knows how to push my buttons, and loves to mess around, and be extremely defiant. He'll deliberately do something wrong just to see how I'll react. It's fun.

He's in Preschool this year, 3 days a week. His teacher keeps him in line, which he doesn't like, but, I know it is good for him. It has definitely been an adjustment. He didn't want to go, period. I would keep him home, but, he has a hard time learning from me. He just gets too frustrated with me, and loses his cool when he can't do something. Plus, he thinks I'm boring. It's been a good distraction for him while Tay is at school. I already feel bad for his Kindergarten teacher next year. But, we love him!! Jake's parents keep telling me that he is so much like his daddy was at that age. And, they survived, right?

Tristan is almost 15 months, and we call him the "One Man Wrecking Machine." He, singlehandedly, turns my house upside down in a matter of minutes. He runs everywhere, climbs on everything, and loves to destroy. It seems like every picture I take of him, he doesn't have clothes on. That's because he doesn't wear them much. If I put them on him, he ruins them. He keeps me very busy! I love his big personality, and he's still quite the snuggle bug when he wants to be. He loves music, and dancing, and recently Jake discovered that he likes to watch "The Wiggles." He loves suckers, and all day long, he will lead me to the candy bowl, on top of the fridge, and point, and whine for one. It's gettin' a little old. I am trying to enjoy him every minute, and not let him make me too crazy, because I need no reminding that he is our last child.
