Trip to the Pumpkin Patch...

...that wasn't really a pumpkin patch.  We headed out to meet Jay, Missy and Iain at the pumpkin patch fpr a little fall festivities.  We showed up to a line 20 cars deep and overwhelmed traffic directors telling us to park a half mile away and catch a shuttle.  30 minutes and a half mile walk later we got there!  We found ourselves in the middle of toddler wonderland!  Peacocks, pigs, cats, and roosters wandering around.  A hay maze, pony rides, horses, a rope swing, a s'mores pit, electric miniature tractors, popcorn...and TONS of people.  Turns out it was a Groupon day and everyone bought that Groupon!
Did you notice my list was missing pumpkins?  So pumpkins were there, they were just scattered around seemingly as decoration.  We decided not to hike giant pumpkins and Sawyer back to the car, so needless to say we went to the pumpkin patch and didn't get any pumpkins!

3 months

3 months seems to mean almost rolling over, almost giggling, and almost talking...well not quite, but lots more noises like she REALLY wants to say something.  We've been going on hikes, taking walks, spending time with family, and celebrating birthdays lately.  Here's a little snapshot.
For those just tuning in, we periodically measure Sawyer next to this basketball and football so we can see her growth.  No, we are not already encouraging sports and hoping she gets interested just by being next to the balls...maybe.
