Lollipops and Haircuts!

William's second haircut ended in a surprise....CANDY!!!

His mouth is STILL Blue!!! Maybe the lollipop was a bad idea...

First Pumpkin Carving!!

William carved his first pumpkin friday night... well Daddy did most of the carving.  William did not enjoy getting his hands dirty and preferred to play on the deck and watch Daddy carve the pumpkin...

We did convince him to stick his hand in once but that was it.  It was too sticky for him!

He did enjoy the tools!

William preferred to just give Daddy instructions on how to carve and clean the pumpkin!

Proud Daddy, showing off his first pumpkin too!

William with his pumpkin!

Where'd It Go????

Sorry, we couldn't figure out how to edit, but still thought it was worth posting!

Boo at the Zoo!!

William attended Louisville Zoo's Boo at the Zoo and debuted his Mountaineer costume! He had a fabulous time, as did me and Jason!

William ready to get the show on the road, Where's the Candy!

William was So Excited to see Shrek and Fiona, that is until he got up to them to take a picture! Then we were "those" parents who force their child to take a picture of a character while they scream bloody murder!

It didn't take William long to figure out who he had to be nice to.  He was all about the candy people, saying "Peeez" instead of Trick or Treat!

William led the way through the pumpkin maze!

Taking a little break...

William, Daddy and Dory!

Finally William resting on a pumpkin trying to figure out how to get the M&M's out of the bag!

Columbus Day Fun!!!

William had a busy Columbus Day since Daddy had the day off. We went to the Louisville Zoo and then the the Louisville Slugger Museum! The animals were busy at the zoo on such a cool day! William enjoyed the fish and the Giraffes! The Giraffes were at the feeding station and all the kids were feeding them... as you can see William did not want to leave!

William loved walking around the zoo, Daddy did not! William was more interested in picking up trash and sticks than looking at the animals! 

After the Zoo, we went to the Louisville Slugger Museum! William did not enjoy that as much as Daddy.  Jason is seen here with Mickey Mantle's bat that he actually used in play! The gloves are to protect the bat, not to make Jason look like he's actually playing ball!

The tour was interesting, William loved watching the bats come down the conveyor belt and would scream in excitement each time one would fall from the shaper! The worker thought he was so cute screaming that he let William hold one that just came out of the machine! He was so excited he smacked me in the head with it!!!  The highlight of William's tour was the free mini bat at the end of the tour! As you can see he proudly showed off his bat on the ride home!

William had such a busy day he promptly crashed on the trip home but was careful not to lose his new weapon, I mean bat!

It's The Great Pumpkin....

William went to Wooden Farm this weekend to pick out his first pumpkin! He was a man on a mission for the biggest pumpkin there...

This is the first one he chose!

The second one he thought was a little more manageable and he attempted to pick that one up.

As you can see, he settled one more his size.  

He LOVED riding in the wagon through the pumpkin patch!

The owner thought William was so cute she gave him a mini pumpkin, which he thought he could eat! He was still telling his Dad about the mini pumpkin the next day and insisted on taking it to church!!! 

Fun Times with Visitors!!!

William had visitors this Labor Day Weekend and he had a blast! We hope they did also! Uncle Chris, Aunt Jodie, Kaleb and Brenna came down to Kentucky for some military and animal fun!

William and Daddy at the Patton Museum on Fort Knox....where we were told by the visitors' center "You can't just drive on post, sir" Ummm, why is a one day visitor pass one of your pass options?????

Willie enjoying a little fishing in the back yard with his new Lightening McQueen Fishing pole!! He didn't have a hook, but Kaleb did and he caught The Big One!

We also went to the Louisville Zoo and it was FABULOUS!!! A little rain and cool weather and ALL the animals were out and about!

All the kids checking out the Elephants!

Willie and his new best friend, a baby gorilla!!! He was just sitting there staring at all the little kids!

William and his usual favorite, the Fish!!!

Next trip, Bourbon and Bats!!!
