We took him to the pumpkin patch one last time, got some cute video but also a few fun photos. He loved running up and down, all around the pumpkins, cackling his little head off. This outfit was just too cute, he got it for Christmas last year & finally fits into it (with a little waistband rolling). This was the first day it was actually cool enough to wear pants, much less a sweatshirt (though it was really too warm for the sweatshirt….) – we’re celebrating the slightly cooler weather around here for the moment!
Many of my relatives prefer to shop early, so I need to get a list to them very shortly. Lil’ Duck needs a new bedding set and a new twin bedframe – he likes this train set and I like this animal set….
For small gift ideas, so far I have those little Backyardigans beanie babies and some HotWheels cars, as well as coloring books/marker sets. Any other ideas??
My little guy loves cars and trains right now too, so making these boy birthday invitations for another little two year old was tons of fun! You may order these designs here with your own custom text, optional photo & various color options: Construction Birthday Invitation & Train Themed Boy Birthday Invitation. Be sure to check out all of our Transportation & Construction Birthday Invitations for many more design ideas!

One of the not-so-fun things about Lil’ Duck growing up is the need for punishment. Who knew someone so cute and little could be so naughty?
Oftentimes now he will throw something or hit us with ducky or use another object to misbehave. We discovered that rather than putting HIM in time-out in this case, it actually works better to put ducky or another object in time-out. Ducky sits atop the kitchen counter where he can be seen, but not touched, with his head underneath his wings . Oh my, the howls and the apologies as soon as this dreaded event occurs! Ever since that time-out, he hasn’t hit anyone or anything with ducky though.
Last night the humidifier got a time-out, with equal success so far (the irony in putting a HUMIDIFER in time out was highly amusing to me, by the way).
Be sure to visit the rest of the Works For Me Wednesday tips for other great ideas as well.
