Fall Fun

A couple wonderful friends (pictured above) threw a baby shower for me and my little guy on the way--he will have a name soon, I promise. It was beautiful and lots of fun thanks to lots of good friends! We can't wait to welcome our new addition in the next few weeks!

We were the Potato Head Family for Halloween. Mr. Potato Head did recover his other eyeball by the end of trunk-or-treat.

But he was also all mixed up. Luckily Ian Larson was quick to point out his problem and helped him fix it. Thank goodness for little boys!

The cutest little Mr. Potato Head Jr.! He was very good at taking off his facial features. I was lucky to get this picture with them all on. As we went from trunk to trunk Benson would point out every pumpkin he could find. It was more like a seek and find for him. When people tried to put candy in his bucket he'd hide the bucket behind his back. :) Eventually he got the hang of it and really enjoyed catching candy in his bucket.

A Trolley Ride through the Woodlands with great friends. Benson has the back of his head towards me--surprise!

Benson with his friend Lily. Benson shows his love for his friend by stomping in the water right by her side and splashing mud all over her. Luckily Lily doesn't mind but I think a few years from now she will so we'll work with Benson on his love languages. Squinty-eyed boy with his sand pail.
Good friends and mud--life doesn't get much better than this!
Riding the carousel with Dad and waving to picture happy mom.
One more great joy in life...ABCs. His little ABC dance is my favorite! Too bad he gets distracted by the camera so easily--if only we could catch all his funny moments.
