We thought and thought about what Adelyn was going to be for Halloween. For weeks we looked at costumes trying to decide. Finally, I was looking at pictures and someone had posted pics of their baby in a pumpkin costume (not an original idea, I had seen it 100 times) in a pumpkin patch (very cute and genius). I already wanted to take Adelyn to the arboretum while the pumpkins were there and after seeing that pic, I knew I had to have one of my own...and that's how Adelyn became a pumpkin for her first Halloween.
Jordan was not excited about this choice of costume. It is not very original (agreed), it is pretty cliche (agreed), and we had been hoping to do something more...special. I told him maybe next year she can be a baby zombie or something not quite so cute.
We had a great day at the arboretum and got some beautiful pictures thanks to Jordan's mom. She calls herself an amateur, but seriously these are professional quality! I keep telling her she should start charging! Check out her website, debrakphotography.com
My sister, Alissa was home from out of town and came to help us with the pics. Here's Adelyn catching some zzz's while Alissa gives my arms a break!
This picture is not posed, I swear! Adelyn was cranky and we were trying to get some good shots of the two of us. We had just gotten her to stop crying, Debbie stepped back to pick up the camera, and my sister said, "oh wait, look, we have to move her hand." Better idea, lets capture that moment!
We were taking a stroll while Adelyn napped, and came by this enormous bowl of tiny pumpkins. I turned all of the ones in the middle upside down so there wouldn't be any stems poking her in the back, and we got this great shot!
She looks so tiny here!
