Our little pumpkin



We decided to have a pumpkin photo shoot for Matty's birthday invitations after he woke up from his nap. It was just one of those days. For whatever reason both boys woke up from their afternoon naps in a grumpy, whiny kind of mood. We drove to a local farmers market that always has lots and lots of pumpkins and seasonal decorations. I had all these visions of adorable, smile-filled pictures of our little pumpkin roaming the pumpkin fields enjoying his explorations as we snapped away. Our experience couldn't have been much more the complete opposite. Typically, it's very easy to make Matty smile for pictures. Not today. The posted pictures are in opposite order (but I didn't feel like correcting it). Honestly, I think we took about 30 pictures and the only two that he's smiling in are the top two pictures posted. Matty was just not having it and we quickly pushed the eject button. As soon as we got one with him smiling, we rushed the kids to the car and drove home. We put some of their favorite music, enjoyed "quiet time" in the car, and looked at each other and laughed...
