Fun with Pumpkins

Well our first planned day to go the pumpkin patch was a rain out :( Believe it or not so was our second day, bummer. So we just went to the farm and picked out our favorites that they had already picked. When we brought them home they became the "new" thing to play with! Great fun on a rainy day!

Alyseisms

It is so much fun having a two year old around the house. She is so inquisitive and curious about everything. For example we were downtown by UMW and she asked where everyone is going. I told her "college". Then we talked about people we know who go to college. She paused for a while then said "I want to go to college.." Then I explained it would be a while and she responded by saying "Patience, Mommy".

For some reason Tim decided to teach her to say "I smell like a cheese steak". She said to me the other day "Does mommy smell like a cheese steak?"

Great Enterainment

I wanted to take some pics of my new "d0".  A friend suggested to put my camera on the timer and do a self portrait (since I am always behind it).  So Alyse and I had a blast, she would push down the button and then we would run to try to make it before it was taken!  This was sooo much fun we did it forever and had tons of pics!  Thanks to digital cameras and not wasting film!  Try it!

Inherited Traits?

Well whose to say that some traits are inherited because this trait that Alyse is demonstrating is such a "Dressel" thing to do.  No this is not a learned behavior (neither Tim or I have done this in the presence of the wee one).
