The latest....

Maddison's latest hobby is sweeping. She loves to push the broom around and I have to stay clear or I get hit with the broom handle as she swings it around. I should probably look into finding her a small play broom which would be easier for her to handle.

She also insists on going outside even if it is below freezing. She will get my shoes and jacket for me and then bang on the door until I agree to let her go out and play. When her nose is pink and her fingers are little ice cubes I bring her in but she is never happy about it.

Pumpkin Time!

We carved our pumpkin yesterday and even Maddison got in on the messiness. I was going to just let her play with the gushy innards but thought, 'why not put her to work?' So I showed her how to pick out the seeds and place them in the cup on her tray. She spent the whole time chasing after and collecting those little slimy seeds. She loved it! She was so good at it, I had to keep emptying the cup so she could collect more.

In the end I think she was happy with how the pumpkin turned out.

Nice teddy. Nice teddy.

Fall

Despite the early snow fall, for the last few weeks we have had lovely fall weather. It has been a pleasant surprise and we are trying to enjoy every last moment of it.

Peek-a-boo!
