Visit to the Pumpkin Patch

We went to visit a pumpkin patch on Saturday. They have hayrides, pumpkins, a play area and animals. Carter enjoyed all of it but especially liked getting to sit on all of the tractors. Fall weather was in the air and Carter did a little better posing for pictures this year, but we still have some work to do.

See Mommy, I am so tall...

Is Carter having a baby brother or baby sister???

We just returned from my doctor's appointment and found out the gender of baby #2...

We are having a girl........

Carter's Birthday Party

Carter had some friends and family over for his 3rd birthday party. He loves firetrucks, so that was our theme. The kids decorated fire truck hats, got fire truck tattoos and made fire truck cookies. They also played with trucks and tractors and all that boy stuff.

Carter turns 3...

We celebrated Carter's 3rd birthday with a trip to the SC State Fair. It is nothing like good Indiana fairs, but it worked for a 3 year old. This year he got to ride on the rides, which he just loved... We spent the entire day there and then came home and opened a few presents.

Welcome to our family blog

I finally decided that I would start a blog for all of the fun things going on with the Toole Family. Carter just turned 3 (blog update to follow) and baby #2 will be arriving in February. We will be finding out the gender on Tuesday, so we will be having a fun-filled few days. Please enjoy the updates as you see what things we are up to.
