Our Little Pumpkin

I have been looking forward to this for a year now - going to the pumpkin patch with my family. We went to Louisburg Cider Mill and ate homemade apple cider donuts and drank steaming hot cider. There were pumpkins, a corn maze and a zip cord for the, um, daddies. It was a beautiful day, windy and warm, and the trees are just starting to show their fall colors to Greta.....

How to Inflate a Baby...

Greta at the Kansas City Library

She absolutely loved it there...the energy was just right for her - stimulating, but not too much racket. She did the cutest thing that made me so proud and even made me cry.....She spotted a little girl across the childrens' area and crawled like mad to get close to her. She stopped at the little girl's feet and held her arm up and waved. Then she lifted both arms up to the little girl, and then she began climbing her! The little girl was cautious and Derek went over to them to reassure her. She said, "I can say hi to her but not to you!" She ran over to her mother and Greta followed her just as fast. Her name was Lottie, and Greta made a friend!
