Pumpkin Picking

Last week we went pumpkin picking.  It was so much fun picking with baby Kiersten... even though she slept through the entire outing.  Here are some pictures from our pumpkin adventure 2011...

 Kiersten with her pumpkin!

 Love the blanket Aunt Suzanne made for her!

 Here's my annual creepy pumpkin.

 Heading home with our goodies!  

Hopefully next year Kiersten will be more involved... 

at least more awake.  :)

  Our 2011 pumpkins.

Here's a look back at 2010, 2009, and 2008.

Thanks for the mums Aunt Sheryl!

Beachin' It

When Kiersten was born I had a very important goal.  That goal was to beat my mom to the beach. :)  She first took me to the beach when I was two weeks old.  My goal was to beat that... and we did!  Although I didn't have to drag everything and everybody up the down hill at Bethany, we just drove to New Buffalo and stood in the sand.  But hey, that counts!  I did have a C-Section so I should get some bonus points for that.  

When Kiersten was officially one week old we hit the beach!

We grabbed some pumpkin spice lattes and went for a foliage filled Sunday drive.

[Shhhh!! Don't tell my Dr.]

 Here she is saying "Peace out!  Get me out of this seat!!"  :)

Then we drove up to Bethany... we didn't make it past the entrance.  Kiersten wanted to eat and be out of her car seat, not go for a Sunday drive.

 Hurrying Heading home to catch the Cardinals game!!

Showered with Love

The first few weeks of K-Dawg's life were filled with a lot of activity.  We had a ton of vistors...
