We had a wonderful weekend. On Saturday morning, we took Sean to Barnes & Noble for Halloween Story Time. He enjoyed listening to the reader read, Go Away Big Green Monster!
On Sunday afternoon, we drove to Rancho San Antonio to take a walk to Deer Hollow Farm. It was a 2 mile walk round trip. It was a beautiful Fall Day. Sean enjoyed his time at the Farm. He saw a cow, a pig, a bunny rabbit, chickens, ducks, sheep and goats. There were a lot of children. Sean met one little 2 year old girl. They played a little. It was sweet to watch them connect. Sean said "Hi" and pointed out the flower in her hair. When she touched his hand, he said, "that tickles".
Sean not only enjoyed the farm, but our 2 mile walk. He pointed out the trees, clouds, leaves and rocks. He said "Hi" to a few people. He is incredibly friendly. We love our baby boy!
We are enjoying our time with Sean. He is so much fun!

A Saturday Afternoon on the Santa Cruz Wharf
Today, Sean, Daddy & Mommy decided to head over the hill (HWY 17) to Santa Cruz. It was a beautiful Fall day. 79 degrees and sunny!
We arrived at lunchtime. We drove onto the Santa Cruz Wharf and found parking right away. It took us some time to get there because some of the roads were blocked off due to 43rd Annual Santa Cruz Band Review:

We strolled down the Wharf and decided to have lunch at Woodies Cafe. woodiescafe.net/
Daddy and Mommy shared the delicious fish & chips. Their fries are the best! Delicious and not to greasy! Just right.... Sean loved the fries and also enjoyed a corn dog! Yummy!!!
After lunch, we continued walking down the Wharf. There were quite a few sail boats out on the ocean. It looked like so much fun! Maybe on a future trip to Santa Cruz. chardonnay.cernesystems.com/index.php
Down the Wharf we went.... Sean loved watching and listening to the sea lions and running after the pigeons! He tried to get the pigeons to stop, so he could pet them, but Mommy had to explain that pigeons will fly away and not allow Sean to pet them.
It was an absolutely beautiful day on the Wharf. www.cityofsantacruz.com/index.aspx?page=648
There were many people walking, riding their bikes and enjoying the beautiful day.
We spent a couple of hours on The Wharf and before we headed back home over the hill, we stopped by Marianne's ice cream on Ocean St. Sean had the Vanilla Bean icecream (his favorite!), Mommy had Oreo Cookie ice cream and Daddy had Coconut Fudge! Marianne's icecream is out of this world! www.lovemariannes.com/
A beautiful and fun day in Santa Cruz. We are incredibly blessed to live less than 1 hour from the Pacific ocean!

Family Story Time
This morning we headed to our local library. We planned to simply go and check out some library books. We arrived at 10:30 AM. We were pleasantly surprised to find a room full of children and parents. "What's going on in there?" Mommy asked Daddy.
It was Family Story Time. We quietly entered the room with Sean...trying not to interrupt. We decided to stay and join the other families for this special time.
We sang songs and heard a few stories. Sean sang along as best as he could and quietly listened to the stories being read. Story time ended with a short family movie.
Overall, story time lasted 30 minutes. We enjoyed it so much, we are looking forward to going again.
After story time, we headed to the children's books section of the library to choose a few books. We ended up with a few books about the Moon.
Sean enjoys looking up in the sky at the Moon. One morning, not too long ago, Sean saw the Moon and reached as high as he could with his hand and wanted to touch the Moon. Mommy let him know the Moon was too far away to touch.
Looking forward to our next adventure with Sean....

Half Moon Bay Pumpkin Patch
Last Sunday, we got up early and headed to Half Moon Bay. It was a beautiful Fall day. Traffic wasn't bad, but we ran into some on Hwy 92. Sean loves taking drives to fun places and stayed awake for the entire ride. We arrived at 11:30 AM. It took about 1 hour to get to Half Moon Bay.
We saw horses and pumpkin patches on Hwy 92 on the way to Lemos Farm.
When we arrived we walked all around to see what fun things there was to do. There was a Hay ride, a train ride and pony ride. We decided on the train ride. Sean loves trains!
It was a little while before we could board because Daddy waited in a long line for us while Mommy kept Sean entertained. Sean and Mommy met a cool 3 year old named Luca. It was fun chatting with him while we waited for our turn to ride the train.
When we boarded the train, Sean yelled, "All aboard!"
After our train ride, we looked for pumpkins. Daddy and Sean decided on one big pumpkin and one small pumpkin. Sean was excited to be able to help Daddy.
We listened to some live music and saw goats and more ponies.
When it was time to go, we headed to our car. Sean fell asleep on the way home! He was wiped out from all the fun he had at Lemons Pumpkin Farm.
