The past 43~ Anual trip to Bauman's Farm!

Warning:

(picture overload)

    Get ready for this crazy picture ladies catch up on the past 43 days! Dude, 43 days in Blogville is a long time. I just don't think I'll make it if I don't at least post some of my favorites, so here goes... Y'all do know this is only part one of like ten zillion... right?!! Sad but true.

    This was our annual trip to our local Pumpkin patch. Ok. When I say annual, it really is only our 2nd year going, but we will surely make this a fall tradition. Also when I say pumpkin patch, I mean the Disneyland of pumpkin patches. This Farm has EVERYTHING you could imagine. Seriously everything.... hay rides, corn mazes, fresh apple cider & apple doughnuts, rides, huge play ground, bouncy houses Gaylor, zip lines, really good greasy fatty food (like the county fair kind)... I could go on and on. It's a wonderful land filled with everything Fall. I LOVE Fall! We went with our awesome friends, & their A-dorable little boy, Sean. Btw, A-dorable is even more adorable than the regular ole adorable.

Starting off with...

How good lookin' can my monkey make a hay ride look, ey?!

This boy melts my heart like no other.

Ok. I know I'm the mom,

BUT the cheeks!

Meet the A-dorable Mr. Sean

These two are quite the smiley pair!

I promise Jax is our child.
Not theirs.

Though...

I think he may like them more?

It's so nice to have such sweet friends.

Especially when they have kids too!

Here we are... the real baby daddy & mama

Oh yah, how could I forget the petting zoo!

 How you doin?

(I know. I get a lil out of hand w/ the captions)

Look at my kiddo,

being all patient & stuff!

Of course he finds the girls, & poses for another mom's picture!

I can promise you he's getting his next naughty idea,

at this very moment.

This ride almost made me pee my pants.

How sweet & innocent can a lady bug ride look...

Well, this one was not.

 Pretty sure this was an evil lady bug.

Such a fun day with wonderful friends,

 to look forward to each year!

Linking up with and then, she {snapped},  The Paper Mama ,

 & This or That Thursday !

Wordless Wednesday~ Yep. He's my boy!

 Little dude has recently realized he can open the fridge/freezer,

all by his lonesome.

With all the exciting treasures inside,

what does he immediately go for...?

Yep. He's my boy!

This is what mama found when she came back into the kitchen.

(After being gone 11.2 seconds)

Linking up with Hollah, Black & White Wednesday, &

and then, she {snapped} !

Hello my loves!

    Oh my sweet friends... this mama has missed the heck out of you! Distance & time sure does make the heart grow fonder (& a lil crazy), let me tell ya! F-O-R-T-Y~T-H-R-E-E days it has been... 43 DAYS since my last post. Forty-three days since my poor abused laptop finally left me... for reals YO! With all the crazy expenses we've had lately, a shiny new laptop was just not in the budget anytime soon. But then there is my sweet, sweet, SWEET handsome man. I don't know how he does it. He has never EVER let me down, he has never broken a promise, & he always tells me the truth. He promised me as soon as the right deal came along, I would have a shiny new toy. I have an amazing new laptop.( Thank you baby.) To seriously afford the level of computer I needed, he thought that a Black Friday deal would be our best bet. This guy did a ton of research, & was glued to his computer. On Black Friday he only got a couple hours of sleep, & returned home with my new bff! I can load a gazillion pictures on this bad boy, & not worry about slowing it down. Greg actually said it will hold about 3-4 years of pictures. In Melanie Land that is a LOT of pictures. Challenge accepted Babe. Challenge accepted!

    I can NOT wait to reconnect & catch up with all my girls. I truly adore you lovely ladies, &  I feel we all make a positive impact on each other. Though I have never met a lot of you face to face, I consider you friends. I could have never imagined that blogging would be such a big part of my life. I am so darn excited to be back! I wish you could see me right now... cause I'm doing the happy dance! Also on a super important note, Right before my ex-laptop left me my A-mazing AMAZING friend Kyna actually let me be part of her oh so fabulous blog. She was so kind to ask me to feature a quick & easy little recipe idea our family likes. I would be so happy if you would go pay her a visit at Great Expectations. You will not be disappointed. She is absolutely the sweetest mommy, to the most adorable little girl. I truly adore her, & I know you will too!

Of course I couldn't end a post without some Jaxy!

Dude. A lot happens in 43 days.

(Especially when you have a 3 year old)

We've had sooo much fun.

Here's a few Halloween pics of my little monkey man...

Or, should I say little monster?

Mr Jax Loves him some Monsters Inc.,

& picked his costume out all by himself!

I am a sucker for those monster feet!

The infamous blue hard hat was only about 5x too big. Lol...

It was freakishly adorable though!

After a fun monster filled night we cuddled up for Cars 2.

(Jax was just a bit excited)

Car's PJ's~ check

Car's pillow~ check

Car's blanket~ check

AND... Lightning himself- CHECK!

How I love my funny funny little man. 

Yes.

A hard hat & a bubble bath. That's how we roll baby!

 That's all for now folks!
