Parker pulling up to his knees

Parker really likes his Baby Einstein caterpillar (mostly to chew on), but lately he has been using it to pull himself up to a kneeling position. Sometimes he doesn't have the best balance, but I think he will be standing and walking really soon! And yes, he is wearing a Halloween onesie in September....he is almost too big for it so I thought I might as well get some use out of it before I have to pack it away.

Cox Farms 2009

We got free tickets to go to Cox Farms on Opening Weekend (September 19-20) by signing up for their email list. So after Parker's morning nap at Grandma Bobbie's house we headed over and spent the day sliding, playing on trains, in corn, and hay, and taking pictures with some of our favorite friends. We also got to go on a very entertaining hayride and through an elaborate cornmaze. Even Parker seemed to have a good time! There was so much to do that we didn't even finish before Wyatt had had enough and we decided to head home. He fell asleep right when the car started moving! We will definitely be making Cox Farms a family tradition!

Adventure Park USA Easter Egg Hunt

Today we went to the free Adventure Park USA Easter Egg Hunt. Unfortunately, we got out of the house a bit too late and missed the hunt (but I was told it started early and was a chaotic mess). Because of this, the park manager passed out free eggs (with prizes inside) and ride passes to all those who didn't get any eggs. So, Wyatt got to ride some of the rides for free. He LOVED the helicopter and Colleen and I basically had to pry him off of it. He also liked the cars, but was too young to go on it. In the arcade, he loved sitting in the car rides and turning the steering wheels. There was an awesome 4-story soft play area, but we decided against Wyatt going in because it was so crowded and Aunt Becky was not there to follow Wyatt through the tunnels so that he could get out. Maybe next time! Parker was really excited to be there.
