Pennys first Punkin Patch…

Its so funny the things we do with a baby that has NO idea what the heck is going on.  When I realized that we were going to have Penny in september…my first thought was…oh god…summer.  The second thought I had was… goodness the HOLIDAYS!  Who doesn’t love this time of year?  I was so excited that Pennys first moments in life were going to be fall…Halloween…Thanksgiving…and ohmysweetgoodness CHRISTMAS!  Even though I know that she is super tiny…I love that her first experiences in life are my favorite time of year.  So when we decided to take a little trip to a small pumpkin patch with our friends…I was beeming with excitement.

My daughter can barely hold her head up, but oh man…she is gonna love pumpkins!  (parents are ridiculous).

Some of our good friends met  with us at the patch and we got to meet their new baby girl Joy.  She is so dang cute!  I have to admit…I spent most of my life a step or two behind all of my friends.  For example…I was single and attended about 9 of my dear friends weddings in one summer.  So its so strange to me that we all are having kids at the same time.  I feel like I finally caught up and its so special to share this stage in life with so many of my friends that I love so much.  Seriously…like 7 of us had babies this year…its pretty crazy and so much fun!

I cant wait to take Penny to see Christmas lights with these fools!  Yay for starting family traditions!
