Pumpkins, pumpkins, everywhere

Cant believe its been nearly three weeks since we have posted anything! The holidays really caught up with us this year as having another little person in the house doesn't allow you much time for shopping, decorating, visiting, etc.... Still a very good problem to have as we wouldn't change it for the world. Attached are some pics we had forgotten about and decided we should share as they turned out great! They were taken in October at the Dallas Arboretum. They truly have the most amazing Pumpkin Patch! Hope you love them as much as we do. Amazing how much Scarlet has grown just since October!

Too big? You decide...

A friend lent us this swing as her little one had outgrown it and it was still in great shape. I started putting her in it from almost the minute we brought her home, but she didnt seem to like it until she was about 4.5 months old. We put her in it a couple of weeks ago and I personally think shes now TOO big for it as you can see from the pictures. I was scared she was going to tip the thing over as she wanted to sit straight up and lean forward! Daddy says I am being over-protective. What do you think?

Yummy???

Scarlet started solid foods (cereal) about a month ago and here are some pictures (finally) of the big event. We are working on fruit now but she still doesn't seem too thrilled with it as she would much rather suck/eat the warm washcloth we use to clean her face.

"Alright, I finally get to eat like Mommy & Daddy! I bet their food is YUMMY!"

"Wait a minute, this doesn't taste like Momma's milk!"

"This doesn't seem good at all!"

"Maybe if a recoil in horror they'll stop putting this gunk in my mouth."

"Ack! If only I could get up and run!"

"I just can't begin to express how disappointed I am in this 'gruel'."

"Momma, how could you do this to me!"

"And Daddy, shame on you for just standing there taking pictures and not helping me escape!"
