Pumpkin Time!

This last Saturday, Anthony, Brooklyn and I all went to the Pumpkin Patch at Sauvie's Island to get Brooklyn her very first pumpkin! I know it's a little early, but Oregon weather is incredibly unpredictable, and with the weather being rainy and windy for the next week and a half, we decided that Saturday was the day to go!

We arrived early, around 11am. Brooklyn started to be fussy, but quickly fell asleep...and stayed that way the entire time we were there!

Anthony carried her in the baby Bjorn, and we went to look for the perfect pumpkin for Brooklyn! It was the perfect weather for pumpkin hunting. Cool and crisp air, a little sunny, but partly cloudy.

Which one will be Brooklyn's?

It's almost as big as she is!

I shouldn't be in charge of looking for pumpkins. Or making any decision, really. I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist, and even if I was faced with the perfect pumpkin, I'd find some flaw in it. We spent roughly looking for a pumpkin just for her. We found one that was small and round...almost like my little Brooklyn!

We tried looking for a pumpkin for me, but, surprisingly, none of them were perfect. :P The weather in Oregon was colder than normal this year, which led to a shortage in pumpkins. After searching for a little bit longer, we gave up, and decided to get us pumpkins either from the store, or, weather permitting, we'd go back to the pumpkin patch again!

Tomorrow is Brooklyn's 2 month appointment....which means shots. :/ I am not looking forward to that, which is why I made the appointment for later in the day, that way daddy could hold her and be the bad guy! 

Happy Family <3
