it was a VERY long and stressful week - i realized anesthetizing little kids take a lot more energy out of you than expected. fortunately, i had the weekend to look forward to... and i was SO happy to spend time with my baby K.
what did we do on a gorgeous october day?
a must-do family trip to the pumpkin farm!
there are tons of pumpkin farms in the chicagoland area with all sorts of fancy attractions to lure kids in. we ended up going to a very popular one - Goebbert's Farm, and i have to admit, i was very impressed. from petting llamas to riding camels to feeding giraffes to picking a perfectly round orange pumpkin is only a short list of things to do at this place! although the crowds get thick mid-morning, i highly recommend a drive up here if you have the time!
