Today we had a playdate with 2 of the kids 4 cousins.  As usual they played hard and loved every minute of each others company!  The 2 year old girls got right down to playing house with their baby dolls and stealing Maia's candy from the Fall Squall.  Every time the 2 little girls came out of the bedroom they had a new piece...so much for Maia's hiding place.  The 3 year old boys headed for their swords and capes.

At lunch I cut up some kiwi that had been waiting oh so patiently to be eaten.  A few minutes into lunch my nephew anounced, "I like pickles"  eyeing the kiwi.  I told him they were sweet and a fruit as I handed him a piece, he decided quickly that his taste buds didn't approve!!!  Later on at snack time the girls were thrilled to serve some roasted pumpkin seeds from our recently carved jack o lanterns.  Matthew tried one and prompltly ran to me asking for a drink so he could get the seed out of him :)  So much for aunt Michele's cuisine.  The apples and juice seemed to go down fine though.
