Pumpkins, Choo-Choos, and Baby 2

This past weekend we were extra busy....we had family in town...so we wanted to squeeze in as much fun as we could. It was a BEAUTIFUL weekend...weather in the high 70's...so we took full advantage and squeezed in as much time outdoors as we could. On Saturday we headed to the pumpkin patch. We went to the same one last year...but this year it was a ZOO! There were TONS of people there...everyone wanted to soak up the great weather. He loved the pumpkin eating dinosaur, looking at all the pumpkins, and there was a HUGE petting farm/zoo---so he saw every animal under the sun! Here are some pictures from our visit...









Sunday we celebrated Brayden's 2nd birthday (a little early, I know, but I wanted to play it safe, with baby #2 due any day...and it was a long weekend---so it allowed for much recovery time!) We had a Choo-choo party. He was so excited when he woke up from his nap and saw the house decorate with choo-choos. He knew that we were getting a choo-choo cake....but the other decorations were a great surprise. Since the weather was so nice....we played outside, ate pizza and cake, and really enjoyed being with our families and close friends. Brayden was showered with gifts---he even let other kiddos help him open them. Every time he would open a gift, he would want to take it out and play with it....so it was good that we had others to help him unwrap. Here are some pictures from the BIG party....but the celebration will of course continue this weekend, since he will officially be 2 tomorrow. So more birthday pictures are soon to come!










On a side note...Baby #2 is doing good...this picture was taken at 38 weeks...he loves sharing stickers with the baby. We had an ultrasound last night (at 39 weeks they did one to check his size and such)...they are estimating that the baby is 7 pounds 12 ounces...and there is no sign of him coming any time soon. I am due next Saturday, however, I am thinking that this one will be late too...so I am guessing closer to Halloween. But we will see!!!
