Weekending it

We finally had nice fall weather for the whole weekend!!! It's been so blah and rainy here it was feeling more like late November than early fall. I'm so grateful when the good weather comes around for the weekend! Mandy stayed over Friday and we all headed over to New Jersey on Saturday to go on a day-venture to the pumpkin patch and apple picking.

We went to Wightman's Farm again this year and Kippy LOVED it there. Last year he was just over a month old and had no clue we were even there. I remember I had to pump and feed him in the car and it was a struggle to push the stroller through the orchard. This year was so much more fun! Kip was so taken by the pumpkins and we had to pry him away from this big pile of baby pumpkins. He could have explored there for hours I'm sure.





This weekend he really took off with the walking and now he walks more than he crawls and it's a whole new level of exhaustion to keep up with him now.








We tried for some posed photos. Some were rough.



But we ended up with a couple good ones.




We grabbed some treats from the shop and then headed into the orchard for apples. Because of all the rain we've had it was pretty muddy so we just walked a few rows and collected a small bag. Thanks for Mandy for these photos.



 

This farm has a ton of other activities for older kids like a corn maze and hay rides. Next year should be even more fun for Kip.

We headed into town for a late lunch and Kip loved the fountain in the town square.


He napped on the car ride back to Mandy's place where we hung out until it was time to head home.

On Sunday we were at church early and Kippy was ALL OVER THE PLACE. We don't have a class for his age group yet so there is just a small play area for parents to watch them outside the auditorium. Normally it's fine but now that he is walking he was busting out of that area non-stop! Phew, it was a workout for me to keep him contained.

They are tearing the ceiling out in our bathroom due to a leaky pipe so Kip and I are trying our best to stayed entertained in the small living room space. He is annoyed to say the least. Happy Monday!!
