Last Saturday started off in the wee hours. Coop was an early riser. I was taking advantage of the extra morning time, and making french toast. While I was busy in the kitchen, Coop was busy himself...figuring out how to climb up and on top of his toy shopping cart! He figured out how to climb onto the wheel, pull himself up, and into the basket, and then stand up. Oh. My.Goodness. I about had a heart attack, then thought to quickly grab the camera and hope he didn't fall off and break his neck before I could snap a shot.
Later that day we took advantage of the BEAUTIFUL southern fall weather and visited a local pumpkin patch. Coop didn't know quite what to think of the petting zoo.
But he was quite interested in the ramp leading into the General Store...another climbing mechanism.
We stopped at the General Store for some needed refreshment.
Coop had fun exploring the pumpkin patch. He toppled over about every other step due to the unevenness of the ground, but just got right back up and took off.
He has his eye on the prize...
the TRACTOR!
Coop has two books about tractors, and so he knew exactly what they were. He was ecstatic to check out the big tractor, but it was pulling hay rides, so he had to settle for the little tractor. (We didn't tell him it was really an old John Deere lawn mower.)
This puppy-faced pumpkin was his favorite. (All the little scratches in the paint are from him.) He kept going back to it over and over again. Such fun!
