two months and a pumpkin patch

 Lucy Jean is a whopping two months! Crazy how it flies, especially when it's your second child I think. 
She is getting much better in the evenings, not as colicky. She still has her moments, but not as often. 
She is SO smiley lately, especially to Mama and always smiles when Gracie is in her face, too. 
She has slept through the night since she was 6 weeks old, usually from about 10 pm until 7 or 8 am. We definitely have lucked out in the sleeping department, that's how Grace was, too.
She's getting chubbier, and even has little rolls on her thighs! We'll find out how much she weighs this week at her Dr.'s appt.
We're lovin' our little Lucy! (little Lou as we call her).
p.s....at Lucy's appt., she was 11 lbs., 23 1/2 inches long.

We went to a fun pumpkin patch in Oakley the other night with Jason and Jenn's family.
They had this cute little setup for a family picture: 
 (it wasn't worth it to take Lucy out of her carseat and wake her up for the picture...)
They had the classic stick-your-head-through-the hole wooden boards...we thought it would be cute for the kids to try it, but this is the best picture we got. Gracie was a little too excited to look at the camera.
Gracie was running around like a crazy person! She loved it there. They had pumpkin bowling, a haunted house, goats and bunnies to feed, a hay maze and of course a ginormous pumpkin patch!
We got there kind of late, but the setting sun made a pretty backdrop. We took Kristi with us and she chose a pretty awesome pumpkin! 
 They had a hayride around the pumpkin patch, letting you get a good look at all the pumpkins to make the best choice when choosing the perfect one.
 Here's Gracie, loving the little hay maze!
 The only thing that got her through the scary haunted house was the sucker. Otherwise, she hated it...
We had a fun time with cousins, and even ate some corn chowder and pumpkin pie for dinner with them when we got home! It was a fun night...and a really cute pumpkin patch! We'll be back next year for sure.
