Pumpkin Farm 2014

This year we decided to go to Vollmer Farm to get our pumpkins, since we had so much fun there when we picked strawberries this spring! And we were not disappointed! The weather was perfect, there was a ton to do, and we found our perfect pumpkins!

Excited for the ride to the back 40!

I think Olson's smile says it all

Grammy had the hard job of cuddling with MC

I love the pumpkin farm!

Olson loved the zip line "plane"

Taking a quick break while playing! 
What a fun morning!

Four Months!


What? 4 months? How did that happen?

Let's see, sweet MC is still a bit intolerant of dairy, likes to wake up a few times a night (just to check on us, I'm sure), is 10th percentile height, 45th weight, has a smile that lights up the room, loves to watch her brother and sister play, and will stop crying if you take her outside. So, yes, she's just perfect.
I still love my binky! 
Starting to fill up the blanket!

There's that smile that melts my heart.

Look at me sitting in my chair! Getting stronger!

Mary Carson, meet the Carsons

MC and I took a quick trip to St Louis to meet mommy's side of the family! She was a pretty good traveler, and definitely charmed everyone we saw, which made her few outbursts easier to take. We had fun visiting with her grandma and grandpa, and aunt Lisa and the boys!

Getting ready for my first plane ride!

My first Pancake Supper! 

Charming grandma and grandpa...

I'm pretty sure grandpa was smitten with me

And grandma thought I was something special, too!

Will made sure I knew what to order for brunch

Will and John missed my brother and sister, but I think they thought I was ok. For a baby. 

We also had fun meeting Kerry and her girls, and introducing Mary Carson to some classic St Louis shopping! 

Thank you for a great visit, everyone, and we can't wait to come back!

xoxo
