On this crisp fall day, we headed out to Mapleside Farm with Grammy. We were bummed my antibiotics hadn't kicked in, and Miles was still feeling under the weather yesterday, so we missed out on the Rockin' R Ranch with the Puch's! We'll venture out there next weekend though! Eli had a blast at Mapleside, and would have stayed in the treehouse and played on the slide all day if we'd let him! There are lots of pics, so beware!
This slide was very fast! Eli flew off at the end of it, lol!

Climbing back out of the tunnel
Checking out the giant tires
Grammy taught him to stuff himself in there...
It took him a minute to get out!
Miles...enjoying nap time in the crisp fall air!
Taking a break after a fall...nothing beats fresh kettle corn and apple cider!
Now, here is a picture of Eli on the way back to Grammy's. First, notice the red area on his chin. That was from falling at the treehouse at Mapleside. We then went to Red Wagon to get some end of the season goodies for Ghea. No injuries occurred there. Grammy needed to go to Marc's, so we tagged along. While shopping, Eli wanted to hold a car that Grammy was going to buy him. Harmless right? Not so much. Apparently Eli had the packaging of the car in his mouth, and I don't know how it happened but it made his lip bleed, lol. Grammy must have took off to fast in the cart! ;) That made for a fun tantrum! At least I had Miles and I could walk away from it, lol! That's where the dried tear just below Eli's left eye comes into play, as well as the matted eyelashes. Then there's the drool and the crooked glasses, and all we can blame that on is sheer exhaustion from spending the day with Grammy! (He tripped on the stairs at Grammy's house too! The boy was a hot mess, but still in a great mood!)
