Doctor Visit, A Book Parade,and a visit to the Pumpkin Patch

Ireland went for her 1 yr. check up today and all is good except she is a peanut at 16 lbs. 14 oz. I have to take her back in a month for a weight recheck. We went through the same thing with Ansley our middle child and came in for weight check after weight check and bloodwork til they realized her growth and curve were perfect she was just growing at her own pace and was small.

She wore this cute outfit that she got for her birthday to her Dr. appt. and brothers book parade even though she was suppose to wear this cute ghost outfit for the occasion but it's almost 90 degrees here today so that wasn't happening.




You can tell she really loves the ghost outfit and I'm sure was so disappointed she didn't get to wear it today.

This is Dawson's school and every year the 3rd graders have a book parade at Halloween where the children dress up as a book character and the 1st and 2nd graders sit in the halls and watch the kids come through and the teachers perform and do skits with their characters. It's really cute.

Dawson's Math Teacher

Dawson as a pirate from his book.

Dawson's Assistant Principal as Old MacDonald and her animals. They sang the song and each animal came up when it was their turn and performed.

After the book parade this am,then the Dr. visit, then Dawson's party we headed over to the pumpkin patch to get pictures and a pumpkin. Every year our Methodist Church here in town puts this pumpkin patch on and it's cute. They have lots of photo props and they even do story time and the kids get small pumpkins for free.

Yes my kids have shorts on at the pumpkin patch. We're not lucky to get the fall weather like alot of the rest of you. We sweat as we pick our pumpkin.

This is the "I'm so done with this day fit." Needless to say we headed home after this picture.
