I know, I know I am world's worst blogger that there ever was... that said here's what we've been up to...

Pumpkin Patch:

so... we decided that since it is eli's first halloween we would be festive and take the little guys to a pumpkin patch little did we know Halloween was relocated to hell the middle of summer. in my ill-fated attempt to actually coordinate for a glorious family photo i inadvertently dressed my boys for the arctic in their long sleeves... bad move mama, bad move...

first... we had to awaken the beast wake up baby bug, always a risk...

(just had to throw this picture in to say i am a lucky, lucky woman)

and thus the grumpyness begins...

we did manage to get a few good pictures...

 

(ok could he be any grumpier in this picture... this sums up the day perfectly)

And I would like it stated for the record that:

fussy baby + bad hair day + sleepy hubby = one grumpy mama

eli was so tired from his long afternoon at god's forsaken land the pumpkin patch that he started throwing quite the fit... as stated in a previous post the only thing that can calm him down anymore is the song "i've been working on the railroad" as demonstrated by the picture of james singing to the bugmeister...

so one positive thing out of the day: i was really able to take the time to do some serious soul searching and this is what i have realized...

I HATE PUMPKIN PATCHES

(when its 100 degrees with a sleepy baby that is)

one last picture for your viewing pleasure:

could he seriously be any cuter??
