We started off October with a trip to a local pumpkin patch/farm. We had lots of fun seeing all the animals, jumping on haystacks, taking a hayride, and all the other fun activities they had set up.
Its getting harder and harder to get a good shot of the little wiggle worm.

I have a pic of him from last year (its in last year's October post- sorry I'm too lazy to post both pics side by side, but I probably should so you can get the whole effect) But I'm pretty sure he grew.

Rubber duck races!

Corn is way easier to clean up than sand- though it is harder to build sand castles with

Of course his favorite activity was throwing this ball everywhere.
My little jack-o-lantern
Hayride!
One of Bryson's favorite activities at Yaya & Papo's is taking a boat ride.

He's the king of the boat

Even though they aren't having the best season...

HOOK 'EM!
We went to a smaller pumpkin patch here in town to grab a couple more pictures

This is pretty much the best shot he would let us get because instead of taking pictures he wanted to do this...

WEEEEEEEEEE! Up and down the rows of pumpkins :)
Pumpkin Carving Time!

Scooping the pumpkin guts out

...and eating it of course. YUCK.

He had enough... he wanted to play football instead.

TA-DA! Look at all the hard work daddy... I mean I did!

OOOOOOOOOO..... spooky!
Halloween:
This year we decided to dress him as a boxer. We had to pick a costume that he would actually keep on and be comfortable in, and he did last most of the night with it.

Practicing his punches and jabs in the mirror.

Gloves up! Ready to go!

Check out the bib Aunt Krista got me!

Ready to go Trick or Treating!
He did really well and seemed to enjoy running down the street and to everyone's house.
I thought all the dressed up people and monsters would scare him, but it didn't seem to bother him. It's so fun to watch him get more and more involved with everything as time goes on! (and in the same breath, it's a little hard to watch him grow up so quickly!)
We had a great Halloween and a great October as well!
