Fall!!

It FINALLY feels like fall! Why? PUMPKINS!! I love pumpkins... and evidently, so does Ella. 'Pumpkies' are the first things she wants to look at in the morning, and the first things she wants to see when we get home. To add to her love of the big orange balls, we took her to the pumpkin patch last week. Actually, this was MY first trip to the pumpkin patch. I can't believe I have never been to one! I'm not even sure we had them back where I grew up. Lot's of cotton fields and corn fields... pumpkin patches no so much.

She, of course, loved it. We also tried putting her in a toddler bed on Saturday night. I thought she did pretty good. She only fell off twice. One of those times, I just happened to be watching the monitor. At the risk of sounding like a terrible parent, I will say... it doesn't get much funnier than seeing a toddler roll off a bed in their sleep. Especially when you see that moment they wake up... somewhere between the bed and the floor, and their panic sets in. (And no, it didn't hurt her. She was like 6 inches from the floor!) Halarious. Anyway, her Dad decided it was too soon so we put her back in the crib. Maybe another day!
