We traveled to our friends' home this past Saturday, in Kohler, to visit their local pumpkin farm. The Loest's treated us to some delicious breakfast treats and savory samplings as we waited for all to gather at their home. While we waited the two babies, Abera and Emily, got to get to know one another :)
Abera sure seemed happy with the introduction of his new girl pal!
He also needed a bit more support sitting up than her, given Emily being a month older at 7 months and he at 6 months... along with his catching up on overall trunk strength.
Emily actually reached in and went for a baby kiss - or slobber as the case may have it.
Abera did not offer a reciprocal smooch though. Sorry Emily!
Then he took a dive for older sister Ella... we will keep working on those sitting skills. Does this count as achieving rolling over though?
The farm was family run and just down the road from the Loest's. It had a hay ride, petting zoo (but we were cautioned that to keep away from the biting pig!), pumpkin patch, corn maze and pony rides. Mehandis was excited to get a chance to take his first pony ride.
The pony was named Bronco... but fortunately did not buck. Mehandis was pretty thrilled with the ride.
Handi also fed the goats. And the goats were pretty close to feeding on his hand when they chomped down on the ice cream cone. Guess they were still hungry.
I love little Lukas as the pumpkin above! Ella and Mehandis took the scarecrow roles.
The four of us loaded up on the hayride with the rest of the gang.
Sugar and Spice were pretty impressive horses... they followed the drivers directions to a tee (we noted at the time that the horses listened better than some of our 3 year-olds!).
It was fun having my parents join us for the weekend and ride north. Don't think they bought a pumpkin but pretty sure they got plenty of photos of our little pumpkins and the patch :)
