We went to the big pumpkin patch again this year.  This time they had a corn pit!  It was really big.

I can see Andrew thinking, “Woah.  Just… woah.”

I showed Andrew the top of the hay pyramid this year.  He likes climbing, so… no problem.

Of course, we got to see the tractors.

And there were wheelbarrow rides for some.

Andrew got to meet the local livestock up close and personal.

After a bit of warming up, he was ready to pet the cow.

And of course we had a good time with our cousins.

Hay ride!

… Daddy lets me play with his cool toys!

Like this garbage truck.  Although I really wanted the cab doors to open.

We’ve been having pancakes lately, and Ben gets to help flip them!  Well, I’m practicing so that when it is my turn, I’ll do a good job.

Scoop:

and flip!

Just like that!

Kitty and I are good friends.  He even lets me sit with him and pet him sometimes.

Very exciting!

Step right up and I’ll show you how I bake some bread in this here bread maker!

You put your ingredients in here, and then you just stir them all up. Ye-siree!

Anything that gets me more bread is a good thing, even if I have to make it myself!

Daddy took me to the fair today and guess what we saw?  A Lego model of AT&T park!  I was just there on Wednesday!  There’s even a big Coke bottle and a picture of Buster Posey on the Jumbo-tron!

I also liked this flag made of baseball bats.

Avery and I got to go on some really fun rides, like this ‘Silver Streak’!

And the crazy caterpillar coaster!

We went to San Francisco today to see the Pirates play the Giants – my first major league baseball game!

Daddy got us really good seats – although he didn’t get us seats where the foul balls kept going.  Next time, I want those seats!

I learned how to really root for your team:

We had some nice treats, like ice cream…

… and this thing Daddy called a ‘churro’.

Awesome!  Except that the Pirates lost (7-5).  Oh well.

It was such an exciting day that I fell asleep in the car on the way home – in my new Giants hat!  Guess I’m a giants fan, now.

We went to the Thomasson’s for dinner and I had this yummy piece of watermelon.

Mmmmm…

Ho, hum.  Just another morning.  I get up and even before I get dressed I head for the vacuum to get started.

I can’t believe M&D have been hiding this toy from me for so long!  But now I know the secret hiding place, and I know how to open the door all by myself!

I decided to try on Daddy’s shoes the other day.  And socks.  And slippers.  Pretty much it was all fair game.

Will these fit me one day, Daddy?
