Pumpkin Carving

Last night we had some friends over for pumpkin carving. It was a lot of fun! The kids played and watched, Its the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Everyone's pumpkin turned out really good, but the pictures were hard to get with the lights.

Pumpkin Patch

Sunday we went with friends from church to Harmon's Tree Farm/Pumpkin Patch. It was a beautiful fall day and perfect for this outing! We took a hayride and got a small pumpkin, it was a great time.

Here's Patrick, he's doing such a great job sitting up now. Isn't he cute?

Alina checking out the pumpkins

The hayride was a mile to the pumpkin patch and we got sit in real hay! (the other rides had benches and we didn't want to do that)

She is too cute!

Alina did want to try and eat the small pumpkin we bought.

Justin carried her in the baby bjorn most of the time, which is her favorite way to travel!

Here's the friends we went with, the Brewers, Lindsey, the Michauds and the Clarks

Go Gamecocks!

Saturday Carolina played Alabama and we got all dressed up and ready to watch the game! Alina has a cute dress from her friend Patrick and we got her a hat to match it. Here are some pictures, of course the babies had to go to sleep before the game started but they had a good time before. Too bad we lost:(

Its amazing how early they learn the "I want that" concept:)

Airplane

On our recent trip to Texas, Alina got to ride on an airplane for the first time. For the most part she really liked it. It was much shorter than driving 16 hours! The trip to Texas was great. She was awake early, but excited to get everyone's attention on the airplane. She had everyone playing peek-a-boo with her and she flirted with the businessmen. On the way home, she was a bit fussier, because she missed her afternoon nap and just didn't want to go to sleep on the plane. All in all it was a great experience for all of us!

Nina (my mom) bought her a baby doll that she loves playing with!

Cousins

Alina got to meet her cousin Lily this week. We had a great time hanging out with my sister, Irina, and her husband, Justin and their new daughter, Lily. Alina wanted to grab and play with Lily but we had to show her how to be gentle. I spent most of my time at their house helping out and holding my niece. It was a great trip!

Picture Perfect

Alina loves to get her picture taken! On Sunday, she looked so cute I wanted to take some pictures in her adorable outfit. You can see below how much she loves the camera:)
