Pumpkins!!!!

so last Friday we went to the pumpkin patch, I asked first to see if parents wanted to be the first to take them but they didn't care, and I wanted to make sure we got it in before they are gone. So I asked if they wanted to see pumpkins and wow!!! Henry stopped in his tracks, jumped up and down and yelled pumpkins so excitedly waving his arms in the air in the process...im not even sure he knew what a pumpkin was at the time. but off we went...and it started slow, they weren't quite sure what to do...but eventually

he discovered that touching the pumpkins was fun, apparently he liked the texture...but here he is trying to roll the pumpkin, but its the best picture i got that day...

Abbie, was a bit unsure of what to do with the pumpkins that it took a while for her to discover they were pumpkins not apples. but with a lot of correction she figured it out, and decided eventually that sitting on the hay with the pumpkins was fun....

they eventually got brave and explored on their own, not just following me around...but they liked the green pumpkin..

then came the hard part...attemping to get two toddlers, who were not overly interested to smile and look at the camera at the same time...so this is one of many attempts....

and sadly...this is the best of the bunch...but hey, i did try, and maybe if we go back again it will be more fun...who knows? maybe we can get a better picture.

overall though it was a fun morning activity to get us out of the house, and in the end they spent the rest of the day telling everyone "pumpkins fun"...and no I was not saying that to them over and over agian, they came up with it on thier own.
