Yesterday we had a really fun day, so be prepared for a picture overload. We started off the day by taking advantage of the beautiful Fall weather with another photo shoot....
Everett loves to collect leaves.
Reaching for a leaf with "Dada"
This is a common facial expression we get from him when trying to take a picture...
Or we get this.....it's like he knows we are trying to get a picture, so he instantly closes his eyes.
We then had lunch at Mimi's Cafe....our favorite. I had to show you a picture of the chicken pot pie I ordered....it's on their menu under the title "Comfort Classics" and it so yummy!
Eric got the slow-roasted turkey and dressing...also a "Comfort Classic." Everett ate off our plates and did so well! We ordered him a strawberry smoothie for dessert and he loved it (so did I).
Last year we went to the zoo's Halloween Party and had so much fun. So we decided to go again this year. Last year Ev was a dragon and this year he was a giraffe. Our original costume fell through. I ordered it online and it was too small. It was too late to order the next size up, so we went with this costume. It actually worked out even better since we were going to the zoo.
Everett's pumpkin that his Grammy ordered him from Pottery Barn Kids.
I love that it has his name monogrammed on it.
We attached it to his stroller so that he could collect his (or really our) loot. He spent most of the time in his stroller, but near the end we did get him out and let him go "wild"...which he did.
I was pleasantly surprised how he handled wearing his costume.
A baby giraffe meeting a mama giraffe. People passing by seemed to love this. I have to admit, it was a spectacle. So cute!
Everett also met an owl. He loves characters!
Such a cute baby giraffe.
On our way home. We had so fun!
