October...

Donova loves his new desk. When he's not running around being crazy, he's usually drawing or coloring. He loves to work on his letters. I'm doing it pretty slowly, so we're only on "little b", but he's starting to get it, and he loves to practice outside with chalk too!

On Wednesday, we went to a pumpkin patch with a group from the library. We rode school busses and got a free pumpkin. Donovan LOVED the bus ride. He stared out the window for the whole 20 minutes it took to get there.
He enjoyed the hayride.

Especially since his friend Sydney was there:)

He picked his own pumpkin, and it was actually a really good one!
When we got home he decided to color it with markers, so it's on display now.

They had fun playgrounds and different attractions for little ones there, so we were entertained the whole time we were there.

After the pumpkin patch, we decided we'd get lunch at Godfather's since it's right by the library.

It still feels like August here in good old Iowa. We're starting to get a nice breeze, but the sun still makes it pretty hot during the day. Donovan and I are still wearing a lot of summer clothes, which stinks a little because most of my cute maternity clothes are fall/winter. Oh well, I guess I'll just look silly trying to squeeze into my summer shorts and t-shirts for a little while longer.

I wasn't planning on blogging today, but figured I might as well since Donovan and I will be gone for over a week and I actually got everything done on my list about an hour ago. Now I'm just trying to stay awake while trying to get all of Donovan's energy out so he'll go to bed super early for our super early flight tomorrow. I'm sure we'll have plenty of pictures and stories when we get back! I'm so excited to go to Tiva's wedding, I love that girl!!
