Fall and our "Ferocious Lion"









Fall came all too quickly this year and actually didn't even really happen at all except for maybe a day here and a day there. But I have to remind myself, I do live in North Dakota. We did however manage to find some time to visit a local pumpkin patch and get in the seasonal spirit! Finn may have been more interested in the slide they had on site than the pumpkins, but we had fun.
For Halloween this year Finn was a Lion and all month long we had been practicing his "lion voice" with him so that when the time came, he would be ready. Should have known, when your dealing with a 17 month old, he didn't even want to wear the costume. :) His cousin showed up as a super hero which suits him well since the joke in our family is that Noah truly is a "super baby." Meaning we have yet to hear him fuss, whine, or complain about ANYTHING. Just a bit different from our Finn filled world. But costumes aside, even though there was no candy or trick-or-treating involved, Finn did get to have some of Grandpas home made apple crisp. Doesn't get much better than that!
