Maybe some of you mommies and daddies out there can relate to this story...
Every year we go to the pumpkin patch, always the same one; however, the past 2 years I have chaperoned school field trips to 2 different pumpkin patches and so we haven't been to our favorite pumpkin patch since Marissa was a baby...
The Pumpkin Farm 2010
Now that our baby girl is 3 years old, (and we don't have a pumpkin patch field trip this year) the mission was to get to our favorite pumpkin patch to take some fall photos, let the kids get dirty and run off some steam. I took over 400 pics at the pumpkin patch, hoping to get a few good shots of our challenging 3 year old. My 6 year old has always been a shining star behind the lens of my camera, and though I don't think he loves to have his picture taken, he humors me. We did get a handful of good ones, but not great ones of baby girl...
Isn't my son so handsome!? Look at those adorable dimples!
So, I got a lot of great ones of my son, a couple of decent group photos and at least a couple that are presentable of my dear Marissa. Shall I share some "outtakes"?
This is what most of the 400 pics looked like ...
And for the grand finale, here is officially the worst family photo I think we have ever taken. Notice how the shadow of my nose makes it appear that I am missing at least 1 front tooth...
Those of you that have experience with 3 year olds may be familiar with the struggle. Yesterday, we went back to The Pumpkin Farm to finish off our activity cards, since we didn't get a chance to do the hayride, last time. This time baby girl had a nice long midday nap beforehand and you probably won't recognize this sweet girl, compared to her "grumpy twin"...
What a difference a nap makes! LOL
