Pumpkin Slide

We got to visit a local pumpkin patch this past weekend.  Lets just say Maksim is not afraid of anything.  He went on a mini ferris wheel, train, and a giant slide that Mama personally felt he was too little for.  He proved me wrong and went up and down it several times all by himself.  The couple of face plants did make my heart stop.  Finally the San Diego weather is cooling down and its starting to feel like the fall. 

The weekend was topped off by my sister throwing me a mini surprise baby shower.  I will be posting pictures from the super cute event next.

Fall To Do List

Summer is still in effect in San Diego but with the rest of the country cooling down for Fall it gets me thinking of all the things I want and need to do this season.

Fall To Do List:

1. Visit a pumpkin patch with the family.  Great photo opportunities plus my favorite color is orange.
2. Visit the Wild Animal Park because its way to hot to go in summer.
3. Take Maksim trick-or-treating.  Got a costume I am dying to put on him.
4. Go pick some apples and why not stop and get some apple pie too.
5. Head to the New Children's Museum.  Every 2nd Sunday is free admission.
6. Plan Maksim's 2nd birthday party.
7. Get everything ready for the new addition to the family.  Clothes, bottles, diapers, etc, etc.  This is a whole other to do list I have to create.
8. Get a new family photo of all 4 of us.
