Farms, Pumpkins, and kids...oh my!

I have had a couple rough weeks with the boys.
Parenting with 1 parent being gone a lot, while pregnant (which means 1/2 the amount of patience), with 2 busy and extremely ornery boys can be TOUGH (exhausting, emotionally draining, overwhelming, you get the idea)!
I wanted to blog about my children and how I would love to freeze the stage Kallen is in and fast-forward the stage Lincoln is in. But after another rough morning, I don't really feel like blogging about them anymore. :P
So instead I will do a little photo dump of our recent visits to the farm and Carrol's Pumpkin Patch in Grinnell (this pumpkin patch is AMAZING! Probably our favorite one right now!).
 
This boy LOVES kitties! (he does NOT get that from me!!)
 
And this boy LOVES puppies! :)
 
 
We always love quality time with Grandma Mary!!
 
 
Future football player?
(hey I will take any sport that gives him something to pour his energy into other than "working" on our house with his little, oh so destructive, tools)
 
 
Feeding the goats at the pumpkin patch with Papa Ken!

Alydia is SO good with Lincoln!
Makes me wish we lived closer so I could have her come over and babysit. ;)






 
Can you find Lincoln?
 
So a cute story about Alydia: she asked her mom "When Tiffany has her baby who will I play with?" and I got to thinking about how Lincoln is getting to that age where he will soon probably ditch her to hang out with the boys. Don't worry Alydia- we have a cute snuggly baby on the way for you! :)
 
Cousins!
 
Little ornery buddies!
 
That is all for now- hopefully coming soon is a blog about my boys. ;)
