Pumpkin carving tradition.....

The Kappy family has a tradition of carving pumpkins for Halloween.  Mommy and Daddy were way more excited than Moses about this family tradition.  He was entertained by the idea for a little while.  

Then he was done and over it.

He was more interested in eating the pumpkin.

Then he moved onto playing with his toys.

Who gives a one year old a knife?  Oh his Daddy to bribe him back into pumpkin carving.  Anything for family tradition, right?

But this is why you don't give a one year old a knife?

After some horseplay, both Kappy boys were back to carving away.

And here are the finished products....not too shabby for Moses's first time.

Happy Halloween from the Kappy jack-o-lanterns!

Preschool Halloween Party....

The Wednesday before Halloween, Moses had a party for preschool.  It was another day that Mommy had to work, so Daddy got to go to the party.  A majority of the paparazzi was missing, so there's only one picture of our alligator.  Well, a half way alligator, because Moses didn't want to keep the costume zipped up or on his head.  
   

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Pumpkin Patch Revisited...

Since Mommy missed out on all the fun at the Pumpkin Patch, we decided to go back.  The first thing that Moses wanted to do was to find the perfect pumpkin for carving jack-o-lanterns. 

"Well I think I found a few that I like, but I better keep looking to be sure."

"Oooooh!  These look nice too."

"Okay, I think I've found my pumpkins!"

So Mommy got to see first hand how brave Moses was riding the elephants all by himself.  It was quite impressive!

Check out how cool he is with his arm around the back of the seat.

Moses jumped around like crazy in the bounce house.

  

"I got bouncing skills!"

Here's the one new thing that Moses did on this visit.



Yup, we went down the HUGE slide!

"WHEEEEEE!"

Who looks more relieved, Mommy or Moses?









Ryden's Halloween Party

Since Ryden was going to be gone for Halloween, he had a pre-Halloween party about two weeks ago.  It was a howling good time with all of Moses's closest buddies. 

Our lil Moses-stein had a great time playing with all of Ryden's cool toys.

So like any crazy first time mother, we all wanted a group photo of all the kiddos dressed in their costumes.  So it started off with the first three kiddos.....

....and then we added two more.  But you can see that Moses was already trying to get off the couch. 

So this was as close to a group photo we got.  It was still missing three little peeps.



As soon as the photo was taken, Moses was done with Frankenstein and had moved onto Brobee.

We might not have gotten a good group photo, but Mrs. Amy got an awesome party pic for us. 

Pumpkin Patch

About three weeks ago, Moses's preschool went to the pumpkin patch.  Since it was a day that Mommy had to work, Daddy got to go on the field trip (so there's not too many pictures).  Moses had a FABULOUS time....and so did Daddy. 

Moses got to pet goats, chickens and rabbits in the petting zoo.

He rode a ride all by himself for the first time.  He lasted the whole ride but was ready to get out when it was over.

A great time was had by all the lil ones and big ones too.



I'm a big boy....

Moses has grown out of his high chair and has moved onto a booster seat, which means he gets to actually sit at the table with us.

He looks pretty proud of himself.  Doesn't he?

"Hey, is that my foot up here?"



"Why, yes it is! And it's pretty comfortable!"





I'm too sexy.....

...as a Cheetoh (or a carrot for you healthy ones)!
