The Best Part of Fall

Today I got to go to the cider mill. Dad tells me it is a right of passage for anyone who lives in michigan. I have to say that Cider and Doughnuts may be my new favorite meal.

I have to say though that I like being outside as much as the doughnuts ~ which is a lot!!!!  Did you see how pretty the leaves are?

Ellie's Pumpkin

Ellie's awareness and ability continue to be shocking/fun/awesome to watch grow. I think this video is particulary fun because you can see the growth in dexterity.
Setting the stage for the video. Ellie's school/daycare invited us to join them on Monday for their pumpkin day. They dotted the garden with pumpkins (think easter eggs but using pumpkins instead) that the kids then could go find. Once chosen, said pumpkin was painted a rainbow of colors.
Also attached is the finished product proudly displayed on the porch ready for Halloween.

Nom, Nom, Nom

This is Ellie's first full apple. Looks a beaver was munching on it. But impressive given she only has 7 teeth...3 on top and 4 on the bottom!
