I hope my child looks back on today, and remembers a Mum who had time to play
There will be years for cleaning and cooking, but children grow up when we are not looking
Cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow, cause babies grow fast, much to our sorrow
So settle down cobwebs, dust go to sleep, I'm cuddling my baby, and babies don't keep

A delightful trip to the pumpkin patch...

First I had to bathe him BEFORE we went because he smeared butter in what little hair he has and I wanted cute pictures not a kid who looked liked a greased turkey:



so it started out as a normal trip:


He hated most everything, but especially the petting zoo. I'm pretty sure he was stunned at how big the animals are bigger in real life. I kept pointing to a duck and saying "duck" and he looked at me horrified and kept shaking his head no!



He did love the pirate ship, a weird addition to a pumpkin patch. Figures it's the only thing June Bug liked.



Then I noticed the paparazzi, only in California.
