St Louis Pumpkin Patch & Halloween

Trevor & Drew got a new "Park" in the back yard. Despite some chilly weather, the tots enjoyed it thoroughly.Sydney loved T's wagon (shhh, don't tell her there's already one under the tree)We went to a super cool pumpkin patch. Again, chilly weather, but the short bunch didn't seem to care one bit.
Sydney loved the tire swings.
If you've been to the park with us ever, you'd know she's definitely a swinger.
There was a ridiculously big slide that she probably could have done by herself, but then I'd look pretty silly enjoying it by myself so I made her go down with me.
You sure can't tell by her face, but this horse swing/spinning thing was her all time favorite. We had a hard time keeping her off of it.There was a super cool maze that I helped her with.
We grabbed some pumpkin butter (Jeff's all time fave) while shopping at the market. Sydney got her hand painted like a ghost (see below) and picked out the smallest pumpkin ever seen. She LOVED it & carried it around until nap time. Her ghost rubbed off after several hand washings (we were careful not to get it wet), but for days she'd put her hand out & say "Boo!".
Ridin' the pumpkin horse w/ Drew.Posin' w/ Gram.

There was a live band, and Sydney decided they needed a dancer. She clapped & squatted for them. Posin' w/ Meghan.

How tall is my little pumpkin?
Jeff got in on the slide action too.
A few attempts at a cousin picture. Much better than earlier this year when we last attempted a 3-some picture.

We returned home Sunday to attend a Halloween Party at the Trachsel's. We all pitched in & rented a jump house.
Sydney had her finger in her nose for most of the group picture. Actually, upon close inspection, her finger was actually beside her nose pressing really hard on it. That's what she does & then says "boodie" to me for me to get it out. Yes, booger fetching is one of those lovely motherly chores.The cow family.Sydney still wears her costume nearly every day. She loves being the baby cow.
This one-eye squint is her face that she makes when she's being silly, like pretending to be shy, or if we ask her to do something she doesn't want to.

Halloween Night!

We made the rounds to 3 Talcott households with Tanner, the Elephant.

Brenna your daughter is SOOO cute! It looks like Sydney had a great time. Jon and I looked at the blog together, and he wanted to know where Jonny was in the pictures. Once I told them who Sydney was, he kept saying, "There's Sydney, and there's Sydney, and there's Sydney..." We've had Fith's Disease go through our house, too. Lily's was earlier this fall, and Jon had it when he was about 12 months. It goes away eventually! :) Love!
