Happy Autumn 2008

We took Elliot to Oakes Farm on Russ' birthday (Sept 27 - the big 2-9!) dressed in her Peapod costume. She went on a hayride, picked out pumpkins, and caught lots of attention. I also made her a "First Halloween" trick-or-treat bag like the one I made Trevor 5 years ago, but I left it in the car. She was all smiles since she was outside! By the way, she is starting to grab things now. If her lovey blanket is in her lap, she'll grab it with her hands & put it in her mouth. So today we gave her her rattles to play with! OK, by this photo she'd had enough of the pictures & was ready for a nap...
