## [Where Did They Go?](https://www.littlebabylump.com/blog/bid/219479/Where-Did-They-Go)

It may have taken Emmett a little bit longer than others his age to jump on the talking bandwagon, but it seems he's hit quite a turning point recently. Starting to speak in full sentences and mimicking almost anything we say (EXCEPT any form of 'mom' -- can you tell I'm bitter?), his favorite new question is, "Where did they/it/he go?" He's even got the hand motions down pat!

See for yourself in this recent video from Nana and Gran-D ...

## [Superman Goes Trick-or-Treating ](https://www.littlebabylump.com/blog/bid/219480/Superman-Goes-Trick-or-Treating)

 With Emmett's grandparents in tow, James and I took Emmett (AKA Superman) for his first ever trick-or-treating experience this past Halloween.� Emmett made a pretty fabulous Superman, selecting the red and blue suit over the alternative lobster costume (though much to my dismay).

[caption id="attachment_1285" align="aligncenter" width="538" caption="A sad lobster and Superman. Superman won."][![toddler Halloween costumes](https://www.littlebabylump.com/Portals/188884/Images/lobster-superman.jpg "Lobster-Superman")](https://www.littlebabylump.com/Portals/188884/Images/lobster-superman.jpg)[/caption]

While Superman was a pretty indecisive trick-or-treater when first presented with bowls of various goodies, he got the hang of it by the end of our adventure, knocking on doors himself and saying "Thank you -- bye!" without even being prompted ([video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRhO7lASJow)).

Nana and Gran-D even taught Emmett how to appropriately get into the Superman character. Watch the footage below to see Emmett flying and making sound effects like Superman.

 Just so we're clear, I am not trying to pimp out my child nor do I have the intention of becoming any kind of pageant mom whatsoever, but I just couldn't help myself with this one.� I've entered Emmett into the Gap Casting Call to become one of the next babyGap models, and [he'd love your vote](http://www.gapcastingcall.com/GapCastingCall/EntryDetail.html?id=329876) (seriously -- he told me).� If you don't become completely frustrated by the crapiness of the website (could they have made Emmett's photo any more pixelated?!), please at least* attempt* to [vote](http://www.gapcastingcall.com/GapCastingCall/EntryDetail.html?id=329876).

## [An Afternoon at Tougas Farm](https://www.littlebabylump.com/blog/bid/219482/An-Afternoon-at-Tougas-Farm)

 It may not be officially fall for another four days, but it sure does feel like it!� Today we spent the afternoon at [Tougas Farm](http://www.tougasfarm.com/) in Northboro after a recommendation from James, who'd taken his students there on a field trip a couple of weeks ago.

[caption id="attachment_1271" align="aligncenter" width="539" caption="This is my absolute favorite picture of the day. He was so excited to be standing on that rock!"][![toddler, pumpkin patch](https://www.littlebabylump.com/Portals/188884/Images/dsc03717.jpg "Emmett in Pumpkin Patch")](http://littlebabylump.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/dsc03717.jpg)[/caption]

We� spent the afternoon drinking apple cider, feeding goats ([video](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yKM6KB9Bqbs)), getting heckled by [roosters](http://www.flickr.com/photos/littlebabylump/5006833110/), [playing on the playground](http://www.flickr.com/photos/littlebabylump/5006854308/) and [picking pumpkins](http://www.flickr.com/photos/littlebabylump/5006288637/).� Despite the fact that there were a million people there and it was basically impossible to snap a photo of Emmett on the tractor (which was very disappointing), we all had a blast!� We also learned, yet again, that a stick is always better than pretty much anything to little boys, even a patch full of pumpkins ...
