Pumpkin Patch!

 Our little "Angel" ready to go to the pumpkin patch! *This cute little outfit will never appear white on top again...this kid LOVES dirt way too much!

 All of the Robertson Clan (minus our nephew Max) went with us.  I think this was Sophie's favorite person there!  She loves loves loves her cousin Charlie!  It is pretty cute to watch them, he is so good with playing with her.

 We started the day off pretty grumpy so it was hard to get smiles from this little brat! =)  This was probably the 10th picture I took in this setting and finally she smiled!

 Aunt Mary, Grandma Fran, and Charlie took Sophie through her first petting zoo!  She enjoyed it a lot!

 Well she enjoyed it a lot, until another little girl decided to pet Sophie's animal then apparently she got pretty ticked off....just look at that mug!

 Sophie with the pigs...yea(note the sarcasm)

 She was pretty hesitant to pet the sheep or llamas, she just could care less at this point in the petting zoo fun!

 There stand the old grumps that didn't go through the petting zoo.

 My little Family! =)  As you all know it's impossible to get a good shot with both Alex and Sophie looking and smiling at the camera!  Let's hope this next little munchkin is better at picture taking.

 Charlie and Sophie played on the straw stack for a long time...A LONG TIME.  I'm pretty sure Charlie was just being a good sport and letting Sophie enjoy it.

 She thought it was a blast!

 We had a hard time getting her off and even after moving on to the next adventure she tried to high tail it right back to the straw stack!

 Sophie had to get some time on a tractor. (Grandpa Terry pictures =)...)

 Isn't she tooo dang cute?

 We finally made it to the actual pumpkin patch!  Although Sophie spent more time playing in the dirt than looking for pumpkins, I did manage to snap a couple cute pictures of her pumpkin searching.  As hard as she tried, she just couldn't lift this pumpkin!

 So she settled for the smaller ones that Charlie found for her!  She struggled a little with them at first but then....

...offer the little thing help and NOPE she can do it!  Haha she had a hard time carrying both pumpkins, but she seemed determined to do it.

 After loading up everyone's pumpkins Sophie was tuckered out and figured she'd just catch a ride back to the car.

 But, there were a few unscheduled stops, good thing she had stuff to occupy her through the wait of Alex trying to find his perfect pumpkin! NOTE: I WILL conquer at the pumpkin carving contest this year I WILL!!!!

 She quite enjoyed riding on the pumpkins.  I didn't think it looked to cozy, but apparently a Bugaboos can snuggle right into a load of pumpkins!

 AND we finally left the pumpkin patch!

 Sophie finally got off her high pumpkins! ;)  And got to work!

Yes we made her pull the pumpkin wagon to the car!

But the grand finish of the day was Sophie dancing to the live band they had!  Of course, Grams and Gramps Robertson joined in!

As usual, she dance a lot better and more intense before I got the camera rolling.  I never catch the right moments on film.

Anyway it was a lot of fun...I can't believe how having a toddler makes silly things like a pumpkin patch the coolest thing we have done the last few months!  We love our little one!

OHHHH side side side note.  Some chick was there that must have been really close to her due date.  She had a pumpkin painted on her belly and walked around showing it off the entire day....WEIRD!!!

More of Bugs!

 I was giggling at how Sophie was sitting on her chair backwards, so I ran and got my camera...this is the pose she did for the picture!  DON'T ASK! =)

This morning I discovered these burn marks on Sophie's fingers.  I have no idea what could have done it, except the other night the fireplace was turned on and she swung her arm back and her hand hit the glass.  BUT, she didn't cry or really do much of anything so I didn't think she had got hurt.  Apparently I was wrong, because I can not think of anything else that would have got her poor little fingers to look like this.  I think Bugaboos has a very high pain tolerance! 

Another 1st!

 Bugaboos' hair has probably been long enough to do this for awhile, but out of fear of it looking like a mullet I haven't.  I FINALLY gave it a roll!  Her 1st set of piggy tails!  I think they are soooo cute, she isn't too sure, but a little bit of cartoons got her mind off of it!  I'm sure they'll look better when the hair dries a little!  BUT HOW FREAKING CUTE!  Now I need to go bow shopping! =)  I only have 1 matching pair of bows...this pair!

A little afternoon walk!

There is nothing like an afternoon walk with my little "gangster"!  She loves that hat and grabs it quite a bit when we are leaving the house, and she doesn't already have a hair bow on. 

We have a MONSTER!

    

I spotted a monster in our corner cabinet last night while cooking dinner!  Lucky for the monster she revealed herself before I could take harsh action to rid my cabinet of her! =)

On another note, as we sat down for dinner last night one of Sophie's toys went off in a musical rant.  Alex and I both looked at each other like what the heck?!  We blew it off figuring it was some fluke, maybe the toy was doing a reminder to play with since we had just left that room and it was possible Sophie had just played with it!  BUT THEN.....at 3:30 A.M....yes 3:30 A.M. the dang thing went off again this time longer.  Alex and I both heard it, he pushed me to go take care of it.  My response..."uh huh I don't know what's out there"!  =)  This morning he was laughing saying how he never imagined that to be one of the man of the house "brave" moments! GTM

But on a serious note...WHAT THE HECK?!?!?!?!?

CAN YOU SAY FREAKY!!!

Alex says we may be cursed with a Chucky doll in the form of a play table!(it's the walk around learning/play table)

We'll see what happens tonight, I may just be selling a toy and getting it out of my house!

Changes!

Things are changing greatly at the Robertson household......

 We are starting to store objects in unusual places! 

*So Alex and I put Sophie down for a nap and decided to watch an episode of The Walking Dead, something we don't do when she is awake, for obvious reasons.  We got all settled and realized we had no idea where the DVD remote was.  We searched high and low, searched places two, three, four or more times, and couldn't find the dang thing.  We giggled that Sophie had hid it so we couldn't enjoy movies with out her, but really we were getting a little annoyed that we couldn't find the remote.  For some reason I decided to check out the book case...an antique book case from Alex's Great Grandpa, a book case that survived the great fire of San Fran years and years ago.  So in short a book case that Sophie IS NOT ALLOWED to TOUCH!  And guess what I found...can you see it?  That little bugger!

A couple days before I was in the bathroom and could here her messing with the book case doors, I came out hollering at her to NOT TOUCH, well I am assuming that is when she stole and stashed the remote....little stink!  We seriously searched for 10-25 minutes before we found the remote!

 On to other changes.... we are not only re-modeling our bathroom(will post pictures soon I hope), but also re-locating the kitchen.....from the picture above I think you can see the evidence under the drawer of who is doing this project! =)

OHHHH all that hard work and she is still smiling! haha

AND OF COURSE, the most important change in our life....as you all know by now....we are adding another little monster to the Robertson family on March 22, 2013!  We couldn't be more excited!

What Bugaboos has been up to!

 Enchilada night!  This kid LOVED enchiladas.  I know it looks like she didn't get much in her mouth, but surprisingly there wasn't ANY in her chair or on the floor.  She tried to devour every last bite!

 She has started chewing on her head bands and thinking she is hilarious!  She is a crazy girl!

 This is what I came in the house to one morning after cleaning stalls at our ranch.  Alex said he didn't think she felt well and from the looks of it she passed out when she got "?comfortable"?! GTM

 We took a day and went into Bend to a public park with Ryanna and Tucson.  These two loved it!  They didn't have a lot of play time together but had a lot of fun anyway.

 Sophie was a huge fan of the play structure. 

 Being the dare devil she is, she tried to go down each slide in every position she could think of.  She even attempted head first, but I stopped her before she could push off and slide down.

 Although this picture may make me appear to be a fibber, this kid really does love to swing.  I guess I just didn't catch a moment with a smile.

 Sophie, Tucson, and Ryanna.....the kiddos thought it was hilarious to swing side by side.

And back home....first notice her awesome Halloween pajamas...I LOVE THEM!  They even glow in the dark...so awesome!  Second I want you all to take note of the amazing horse trainer Bugaboos is.  Not only does she train the horses by riding them, she trains them by riding each other too!  She quite enjoyed keeping her stuffed horse in front of her as she went to town rocking the bigger horse!  This kid is too much fun!
