Fall fun!

Today was a perfectly beautiful fall day! It was a great day for a field trip to Squirrel City. My preschool class took a walk to the nature trail that my teacher calls Squirrel City. We saw lots of squirrel nests, but zero squirrels. We also saw bat houses, bird houses, and wild berries. It was a long walk and we were all tired when we got back. My legs hurt. My teacher told the parents that the kids would all take naps today, but I didn't!

Finished pumpkins: Scary, Scared, and Silly

After rest time, we carved our Halloween pumpkins that we got yesterday. We were going to get them from a pumpkin patch that Mommy's friend had told her about, but we couldn't find it. I say "we" but really I slept for the whole drive. I woke up in Coborn's parking lot. I wasn't too disappointed even though I had wanted to go to a pumpkin patch. You'll have to see the pictures from carving. Eliana had a lot of fun playing in the slime. I didn't like it, didn't want her to play in it, and REALLY didn't want her to eat it, but Mommy said I should let her. She said I did it when I was a baby, but I can hardly believe that. Eliana got really messy! Once all the slime was emptied out, I helped design the faces and did a little carving. We made one pumpkin silly, one scary, and one scared. I carved a little bit of the scared mouth.

Helping with laundry?

Mommy says to tell you that Eliana is feeling better. She says that the antibiotics kicked in after 4:00am. She could tell because Eliana finally started sleeping well again. She was back to her silly self today. She helped Mommy with the laundry, just like I did when I was a baby. She helped dump the clean laundry all over the floor! It was funny!
