This past Saturday, our neighbor from the townhouse, Lu, invited us to go to a pumpkin patch with her. We were all really excited about it. They had caramel popcorn, hayrides, pumpkins, gourds, and even a corn maze. Unfortunately for everyone, the weather didn't cooperate. It was drizzling most of our time there, and it was pretty chilly (about 40°F). By the time we left, it was pouring. It's a good thing we got there early! While we were there, Kara had a great time playing in the mud and picking out pumpkins. She especially liked the little pumpkins (which she called "tiny pumpkin" in a high voice). We picked out about 5 good pumpkins. Mommy got a little carried away with the gourds, and we now have enough to decorate everyone's house in the neighborhood.
Recent conversations with Kara:
Daddy: "I love you, Kara."
Kara: "I love Fifi!" Fifi is her nighttime stuffed dog.
Kara: "What's that?" - Her new favorite phrase
Kara walking to Mommy with her hand cupped (and empty): "Eat this!"
Mommy: "What am I eating?"
Kara: pause...."Apples! mmm"
