Time Change

Time change and a big Friday night trick or treating makes for a very tired and cranky child. This is where he chose to rest today.

Saturday Breakfast

I don't think this needs a paragraph to explain how much Peter likes jam.

Happy Halloween

Going through the loot


Naughty Monkey

Peter was a monkey for Halloween. He was able to imitate the animal very well because the Wiggles have a song called "Do the Monkey". He was very polite for the first 20 houses, he would say "trick or treat" and "thank you". Towards the end he became shy, but did manage to say "boo" to a few homes. When we got home, he served time in the naughty chair, but did manage to give out candy to bigger kids.

Bowles Farms, Clements, Maryland

Today was a very fun day. We headed south to St. Mary's county with our friends and their daughter who is slightly older than Peter. This farm has amazing corn mazes every year. This year the theme of the maze was the Blackistone Light House. We attempted to make it through the maze, however we would still be there now had we not cheated. We went on a wagon ride, played in a corn box, jumped in the hay, rode a barrel pull and even saw piggies and sheep. I am sleepy, so I know Peter is too. Click on Bowles Farm link to see more.

Coast Day in Cape May

Sunday was Coast Day at the Lobster House in Cape May. It was a lot of educational happenings. Peter got to touch a crab in the water with help from the people at the Nature Conservancy, he fed a turtle blueberries and we took home a lot of free "stuff". We had a great lunch on the deck of the Lobster House and Peter really enjoys Daddy's clams.

Delaware Bay with Kahlua

We drove up to my parents for a weekend of beautiful weather. Peter, Jeff, Kahlua, my mom, and neighbor Peg went to the bay for an evening activity. The water was warm enough to get wet, as you will notice that Peter eventually wound up in just a diaper. Of course Kahlua had the best time of all.

Butler's Orchard

Peter casted his vote for the McCain Pumpkin



Mommy does exist!

Peter jumped into the hay, it was a soft landing.

Today we spent a perfect fall day looking for our perfect pumpkin. Peter was excited to part of the fall festival at Butler's Orchard. He got to go on two big slides, raced a rubber duck, jumped in some hay and rode Cinderella's Pumpkin all by himself. We had to pay extra for the pony ride, but it was worth it. He enjoyed some corn and hay mazes as well and of course there was a Moon bounce! Peter ate an Apple Cider doughnut back at the farm market. We didn't get pumpkins this trip, but keep checking back because we have lots of orchards and farmland near us.
