Sitting & Pumpkins

Today Emma started sitting up like a pro! I'm sure she probably could have done it sooner, but it just occurred to me last night that she is old enough to start sitting up. I honestly never know when the specific ages they are supposed to be doing things is. *I work with her on stuff and if she gets it, great, if she doesn't, I don't try to stress about if she's early or late. But she is doing awesome! Here are some pics of her accomplishment :)

Calvin snapped a picture of me while I was talking to Heather today.

And then around 4 we head down to the park because they were handing out free pumpkins and goodies bags! As you can see, there were a TON of people there.

Calvin decided to pout because they were playing the song "Ghostbusters", and he informed me that he hates that song.

So we went and got him a pumpkin so we could head back home. That way he wouldn't have to sit and endure such a horrible song ;)

The pumpkin was so big it had to take his spot in the stroller. Here he is buckling it up!

After that we headed back home and washed it off. Hopefully this weekend we'll get a chance to cut it up!

P.S. Another Calvin and Emma comparison picture! I think they are pretty close in age in these. They both even got the drool going on!

*I had to edit the post because when I reread I realized it made it sound like I don't work with my kids and just let them figure things out on their own. When I do work with them, a lot. I'm just not one of those moms that thinks they have to do things exactly when the books say they are supposed to; and then stress about it if they don't. I know that they learn things in their own time, and that each child is different.
