VanDenBerghe Halloween Party

Poppy loves Halloween almost as much as she loves her cousins. Here, she enjoys both at a little party we had for the kids.

Our little garden gnome. With the addition of fairy wings. Her idea, of course.

We're Amazing Race contestants. The idea was that Poppy was our little Travelocity roaming gnome. Get it?

Running with Cousin Gaby

Eating dinner in the company of a lion, a skeleton, Woody, and The Wicked Witch of the West.

Poppy was really excited about the donut-eating game. Or maybe she was just excited about the donut.

Pinata time!

A visit from Nannie Sue

Paul's mum came for a visit in late September-early October, and Poppy was thrilled. She loves her Nannie (or as she calls her, "Annie").

Just before heading to the airport...

This picture is pretty cute, despite Poppy's unfortunate pose.

Gardner Village

Farmer's Market at Wheeler Farm

At Wheeler Farm again - a few days later, and the weather had gone from hot to snowy! That's why we're sporting coats here. Poppy went into the pumpkin patch, then a hay ride, and a corn maze.

Having fun with the camera!

I didn't realize Paul had included these pictures...as you can see, by this post in October, I am definitely showing. And it's safe to say my appetite is not lacking these days. Expect little boy Leggett to come out nice and healthy, like his big sister did!

State Fair

Poppy loves animals so much, how could we not take a trip to the fair?!

I feel kind of bad for these ponies. Poppy loved the ride.

Poppy's most favorite animal ever? Probably the rabbit!

We weren't planning on going on any rides, because frankly, I didn't think Poppy would want to. She saw the balloons and immediately begged to go. Success!

A fun trip to Bear Lake!

We went to Bear Lake in August for a mini-vacay. It was just for a couple of nights, but it was nice and relaxing, and Poppy loved the lake. All in all, a fun summer trip, even if it was really the only place we made it this summer!

I forgot what these big 4-person bikes are called, but Poppy LOVED sitting up in the front while we pedaled.

Looking out at the lake with Grandpa, whom she has dubbed "Pakka". This trip was the first time we noticed that she calls him that, and she still does! Pretty cute.

A few months pregnant here...although you really can't tell...yet.
