Fall is in full swing here, what a wonderful season. It’s cool, a bit rainy, and the leaves are changing colors. Today we carved pumpkins. This was the first year that Ajax put his hand into the pumpkin to scoop out the guts/seeds. He also asked for scary faces and they turned out quite well. Noomi sat at the table and licked the pumpkins and somehow managed to eat some of the pumpkin guts that landed on the table near her. She gobbled them up before we could stop her. Oh well, veggies right?
Besides pumpkins today was pretty darn quite. We bummed around the house. Dave and Ajax did a bit of running around. Emily stopped by to visit, but other than that pretty quiet.
While I was making dinner tonight Noomi insisted on being right under my feet. As I was working at the stove with hot oil that wasn’t the best place for her to be, but every time Dave brought back into the living room she threw a temper tantrum. We ended up putting her in her high chair in the kitchen with me so that she could watch me cook. That seemed to make her happy.
