Pictures, Pumpkins and Pearl! We took Pearl to the doctor today and she weighs 9lbs 6oz, a whole pound over her birth weight and only 10 days old. Rose did not weigh that much until she was almost 2 months old. Mike wanted to know if she will start sleeping through the night once she gets to 10lbs, sounds like a good plan to me. We went to Batten Farms today one of Rose's favorite places to go as they have some farm animals and they make the best homemade milkshakes, our current favorite is the Pumpkin shake, it tastes like drinking a pumpkin pie. We were hoping to get a pumpkin to carve and take some cute fall photos of our October girls, (since we don't have natural fall foliage we have to go somewhere with fall decorations). Anyway we did not have much luck with the pumpkins or pictures. They were out of big pumpkins except for one huge misshapen pumpkin that must have been passed up by many people before us (sorry to those of you that like to rescue misfits, we did not get the ugly pumpkin). As for the pictures, Rose would not sit still so we have a few blurry pics. of her and some of the back of her head. She also wasn't to sure what she thought of the scarecrows. We took a few cute photos of Pearl in the pumpkins. ( I have also included a picture of Rose as a newborn wearing the same pumpkin hat. Rose's picture is the one with the hay bale behind her.)
