Happy Fall

This is pretty good!!



We had our first full week of rice cereal and Kate seemed to really like it. I find this unusual because it sure does not smell good and I don't think I've ever hear any mom say their child loved rice cereal. She smiles the whole time I'm feeding it to her. If there was one word to describe this child it would be EASY! I'm in no saying that having two children is easy because it's not. Especially not between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. But as far as eating, sleeping and just hanging out, she is pleasant and laid back. She's probably saving it all up for the toddler years. That seems to be what Lynley did. She is definitley a pleasure to be around every day. I look forward every day to looking over into her crib in the morning and seeing that big smile.

A Day at the Farm




Today Lynley's class, along with all the other 3-year classes, took a field trip to Old Baker Farm where they had all kinds of farm animals, a pumpkin patch and a hayride. They were able to see and pet (yuck!!) all kinds of animals- donkeys, pigs, baby ducks and horses. The highlight of the trip was probably the hayride out to the pumpkin patch. All the children were able to pick out a pumpkin and bring it home. My least favorite part of the trip- probably when all the children, including mine, were touching all the animals and then preceded to put their hands in their mouths before the moms could get over to them with hand sanitizer! Oh well, I guess we'll survive. Lynley thought the white rabbits looked just like Mr. Rabbit!

Kate



Several of you have mentioned that you haven't seen any pics of Kate in a while. Poor second child!! It's so hard to find time to take pictures now. But I have been better in the last few weeks. She has changed so much. She smiles all the time, especially at Lynley. She is a happy, happy baby. Enjoy!!
