Pumpkin Pickin'

I love the site of a pumpkin patch--the lighting was so dramatic outside today--a bright bright fall sun was shining!

The pumpkin!

I have decided it is impossible to take group shots of children.
See? Impossible!

Maeve just enduring it all--with a stoic look in her eyes...

Oh and fyi--don't head to J's Farm on a Tuesday in the middle of the day.
Just don't do it--you'll have to park a mile away and contend with crowds--Ha! Actually the crowds didn't really affect us at all, I just couldn't believe how many people were there! Whew!

11 Mae-ve-li-cious Months!

Oh My Little Maeve--My Oh My--Time Does Fly

You are 11 months old today and are:

taking lots of excellent and long naps (yay!)

eating like a big girl (you love toast, peas, corn on the cob, applesauce and yogurt!)
taking lots of little steps here and there

saying: mama, dada, hi and bye

putting away toys like a champ

becoming more lovely and fabulous and fun and wonderful every day!

i love you sweet girl!

Wish List With A Side of Hmm?!?

I'm throwing an "almost birthday" party shindig for my girls--

Maeve is 1 at the end of Oct. and Amels is 4 at the end of Dec...and I'm not really a party person but I thought it would be fun to have their little friends over during the season of warmish weather for a little outdoor fun--

So, I asked Amelie what she would like for her birthday and she replied:

1. Barbie Princess Bike

2. Barbie Princes 'Puter (computer) with NEW batteries
3. Barbie Toilet Paper

WHAT? Where on earth did she get that idea?

Oh, and in case you were curious, as I was, I looked up Barbie toilet paper under yahoo images and this is what I found:

I swear my Grandma or someone else I knew, back in the day, had one of these "Fancy" Barbie toilet paper covers. They're genius man, pure genius!
