Week ending October 26th, 2008. The kids are preparing for Halloween. They also love their new mat play area. Brady uses it the most since he rolls all around to get were he wants to go or after his favorite toy.

While visiting at Granny and Grandpa J’s, they put up a bouncy for the kids to try. Corryn wasn’t totally sold on the idea  but Brady did pretty good. He’s quite the inquisitive child by nature.

Brady in the bouncy. He really seemed to enjoy it.

We took the kids to the pumpkin patch to help pick out their pumpkins and to take advantage of a great photo opportunity. In the future years they’ll be able to play on all the rides and pet the animals. Afterwards we took them to a local farmers’ market. We all enjoyed our time out.
