Pumpkin Patch 2010

A few weeks ago, Reese and I bought pumpkins and decorated the front porch!



Then last Saturday, October 16th, we finally made it to the Pumpkin Patch. It was something I really wanted to do before Lane's arrival and we made it just in time as I went into labor later that evening at 6:00 p.m.

As you can see, Reese had a blast!






I think she looks like me in this picture - it reminds me of one taken when I was a kid.

There were many different kinds of pumpkins to explore.




Reese learned a great song at school about pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns.

It goes...
Mr. Pumpkin, Mr. Pumpkin
Eyes so round, Eyes so round
Halloween is coming, Halloween is coming
To my town, To my town!


We bought this one and added it to our porch collection.

Afterwards, we went by Scott and Lauren's house and Reese played with Zoe the cat.

After I took one picture, Zoe ran off. Reese went to find her.


I had felt uncomfortable all day, having sporadic contractions and feeling a lot of pressure because Lane was very low. We went by Mom's house to pick something up that might help relieve some of my discomfort then headed home. I wanted to do one more thing before Lane arrived, and I had promised Reese we would, so Reese and I made muffins. I knew they would freeze great and be a perfect snack. The contractions started to become consistent around 6:00 p.m. We were on our way to the hospital at 8:00 p.m.
More on Lane's birth in the next post!
