Lil' Pumpkin

Everyone told me that Owen would get sick when he started going to day care.  Yeah, yeah, I thought, he's only going twice a week, how bad could it be? Well, he's pretty much been sick since the end of August. Our sick pumpkin had his first ear infection and has an ongoing cold and cough that he just can't seem to kick. Honestly, the lack of sleep and general crankiness has made us all pretty miserable.

The worst part (for me at least) is that despite feeling under the weather, Owen won't sit still. Doesn't he know that you're supposed to lay on the couch, nap and watch rom-coms when you're sick? It's pretty much impossible to quarantine our busy boy so last weekend we went to a local farm for some fall (err...forced) fun.

Despite feeling under the weather, Owen was a good sport. He led the way through a corn maze. We even ran into a chicken along the way. 

Watch out, toddler on the loose!

Sadly, there were no smiles for this kid. Fortunately, both he and Daddy are still pretty cute sans grin.
