A visit to The Pumpkin Patch!!!
















We have a family tradition that my parents started back when I was a baby. My mom and dad would take us kids to the pumpkin patch along the Delaware River. It is such a small but a really cute place. So as we are getting older, we decided to keep this tradition going with the grandbabies. Ashley has been taking her boys every year and so when Little Miss Kaydence came around we made our stop too. The picture on the left was her last year just a few weeks old and the one on the right is her this years. If you couldnt tell. lol What a huge difference, I cant believe it.

See that little tude she is getting......the hand going on the hip and lips out. I think she was getting sick of all the pics. haha

















This year the kids weren't really up to taking pictures. They all seemed to have a little attitude. They would pose and when you call them to look at the camera they would ignore you. The 2 oldest boys did it on purpose. Its a new thing Nathan just recently started. It was just an overall bad day for them. We are lucky we got a few good pics. I do have to say they had fun running around and looking at all the pumpkins. The boys loved playing in the leaves. I guess as long as they had fun then thats all that really matters.
This one of Jayden would have been really good if the shadows of the tree werent all over his face. That actually ruined alot of our pictures.





















Gotta love Alex and his cute little smile!!!
















Here is Ashley and her boys.......I think it is a pretty good picture of them all. They are all looking at the same time, and let me tell you what that was not easy to get a shot like that.


We had a little leaf fight.....

















HAHA I dont know what alex was doing but I thought this was so cute of him. He's like karate chopping the pumpkin.



















Nathan playing in the leaves and Jayden doing a dance or something. haha Theses kids crack me up!!!



























My all time favorite picture of Kaydence and Me!



























Had to take some sister pictures, I think they came out pretty good. Except for the fact that I look a tad bit orange. How sad....I kinda blend in with the pumpkins. haha




The last picture of our trip to The Pumpkin Patch....I love this picture of her, whenever I look at this picture all I see is her Bright Blue Eyes. I never would have thought I would get a blue eyed baby.

The Party!!!

Since Kaydence's birthday was on a thursday we decided to have her big party on saturday. I went with an usual idea for a first birthday....I didnt want her party to be like everyone elses with all pink and purple stuff. And so I thought well since her birthday is in October I could go with a fall theme. I think it turned out pretty cute and wish i got more pictures but i didnt have time and if im not taking the pictures no one does.

Here is the cake I got her....the red looks really bright but it really wasnt. It turned out to be nice and she got her little one which you will see how much fun she had with that.
































HMMMM.....is that for me???? Looks so Y-U-M-M-Y!!!!
She really did have fun with her cake. Nathan did too in fact he helped her eat it and was feeding her some of the icing. It was cute!















The cake and icing got everywhere. Even on me, i had to change.

Some family and close friends that came over to wish Kaydence a Happy 1st birthday.

Kelsie, Ashley and my Nanny. Mama Niko
Big D and Kaydence....Caity and Cindy enjoying the homemade soups my mom made for today.

Birthday Girl!!!



I cant believe she is one are already. I honestly dont know where the time went and it makes me sad. I wish i took more pictures of her growing up. But then i go and look at all the pics and think i took to many. but can you honestly have to many pictures.....i dont think so. So we celebrated Kaydence's 1st birthday as a family at The Texas Roadhouse. Both her uncles work there and since they worked that night we thought we would bring the celebration to them.










Kaydence and Nana waiting for Aunt Ashley and her crew to show up so we can be seated at our table. I'm so supposed she left the crown on. She doesnt keep head bands in anymore or hats on. I'm just glad she keeps her hair clips in.

Ashley here with Kaydence. You know whats really scary is that Kaydence looks so much like ashley when she was a baby.











Thats 3 generations right there....we have 4 but nanny wasnt with us tonight.

Kisses from the birthday girl!!















Texas Roadhouse birthday tradation is to get up on the saddle while they announce it to the whole restuarant thats its your birthday. She liked the attention at first until they got loud which scared her and she screamed and started to cry. But she had fun on the saddle.

Fall Time!!!















Its fall time one of my favorite seasons. When you can bundle up with warm sweaters and all the leaves are changing colors. Its just so pretty. So last weekend my sister and her 3 boys and kaydence and my mom and I decided to go to Penn Pump Park and take pictures next to Bushkill Creek. With my camera I set the color to sephia and my sister took colored ones. We had a good time taking pictures, it was a blast. Kaydence almost fell into the water and as Ashley tries to grab her she is tripping and almost fell too. Alex just sits there and poses for the camera, i think he could be a little model.








Yes thats right he did in fact hit her. He has a bad habit of smacking her in the head. But she gives it right back to him. She tackled him the other day in the living room. It was funny she had him pinned to the ground. GO KAYDENCE!!!! She rules the house when those boys come over to play.















I love this picture of Alex and Nathan. They just look so cute with the curly hair. It was hard at times getting them to sit still. Alex was good at it and Nathan not so much. He would make weird faces and poses. But we managed to get a few good ones.











Now doesnt alex just look like model. He would serious sit by himself and pose, anywhere he felt like it. I think ashley should put him into modeling. He would do a good job.


















This is the end to our great adventure at Penn Pump Park!!!
