** Yay for pumpkin carving **

Im just going to start this off by saying....I LOVE HALLOWEEN and our lil Munchie makes it so much funner!!! Last night we carved our pumpkins!!!! We thought it would be fun to do all Sesame street ones since Braxton is so into Elmo and he is also going to be Elmo for Halloween so it was perfect. We carved Braxtons into Elmo...He loved the finishing touch but wanted nothing to do with touching that nasty, sticky pumpkin mush!!!! Ben decided to do Bert and I did Big Bird...Braxtons turned out great, but Ben and I made the mistake of getting big pumpkins so they were thick and hard to get through so they were a BIG PAIN and we know for next year to not get such big ones!!!! So Munchies turned out the best and then Bens Bert and my Big Bird...umm not so much it was too hard so it doesnt look the best but that is ok we still had so much fun!!!

"Pumpkin Patch"

Here is our little Braxton at the pumpkin patch with some of our friends. Braxton was so excited to pick out his very own pumpkin he kept saying " I get a lil pumpkin" he was so fun to watch run around he is getting so big and its so fun with the Holidays now that he is getting older and understanding. Now we just need to carve them. I bought a Elmo carving kit so that is what we will be doing here shortly! I love the Holidays I am so excited for them!!

** California **

Last week we took Braxton on his first trip to Disneyland,Sea World, and the beach, it was so much fun we had a blast spending the week with the family. We went with my mom,my aunt,my cousin her husband and their 3 kids and it was sooo much fun. But nobody told me how hard it is to travel with a toddler...his routine was so messed up, well for that matter there was no routine and that is not like me so I was going nuts and then coming home and trying to get things back to normal, well that was fun!! ha ha not really! He actually has done pretty good except for the first night. Wow!!! But anyways back to the trip we drove there we first stayed in San Diego and went to the Zoo and to Sea World. Sea World was so much fun and they have a new Elmo theme park and Braxton loved that it was so fun to see him on all the rides and with all the characters and animals! When we were in Sea World Braxton was sleeping in his stroller and we were trying to wake him up so that we could go see all the Elmo characters and right as we woke him up Elmo and Cookie Monster started walking towards us and Cookie Monster just took Braxton in his stoller and just started pushing him so Ben and follwed him and he took us right back with all the characters to get our pictures taken in was so cute but Braxton was alittle freaked out since he had just woken up but he still had so much fun!!! He also loved Disneyland and Mickey Mouse and Goofy..well he loved them all!!! We had soo much fun and cant wait to go back .It was fun for Ben and I as well I hadnt been there since I was 3 so it was all new to me as well.Ben and I were also able to go to an Angels game with my cousin and her husband that was so fun we had a blast! Here are some of our pictures!!!
