Today we took Claire out for one of Melanie's favorite annual outings - "punkin pickin". My mother Lynne and Melanie's mom Lynn as well as Mel's sister Sheryl were in town and joined us. We returned to the same place that we enjoyed for several years when Sarah and Damian Smith were living in KC, hopped on the hayride and were brought out to the pumpkin patch. Pumpkin patch is a loose term here. A more accurate description would be to call it a field with pumpkins strewn about. And a little kid-sized house, some hay bales and a price list.
Claire enjoyed whacking on pumpkins, holding smaller pumpkins and pushing one or two larger ones over as she attempted to stand with their assistance. She grinned up a storm - I've got pitures to proove it. I'll probably get to posting them by tomorrow, since today we will be busy showing Claire how it feels to be the center of attention. (as if she has not already worked out how to command that position already). See pictures.
Happy Birthday to Claire. She's uno today.
