I remember the first time we took Parker to Bates Nut Farm to see the big macs. He was barely standing and we had to lean him against the big macs to get the shots. He was shorter than some of the pumpkins! Fast forward to 2017, and my now 4 year old could barely stand still for a photo. He wanted to run through the fields, pick up the pumpkins and was totally distracted by the tractor rides. I started this blog as a public diary of our journey through parenthood in San Diego. Annual traditions like visiting Bates are reminders of how far we've come as parents and how Parker growing into a handsome, independent little boy.

Mom tips:
-Sunblock, water and closed toe shoes are a must.
-Bring quarters if you want to buy corn to feed to animals.
-Bates now charges a $5 cash only parking fee
-The number of vendors and food trucks has increased significantly. Woo hoo!
-We visiting late in the season this year and most of the big macs were already gone. There were still plenty of pumpkins though!
