How to pick a pumpkin.
Now that we've had time to recover from our candy comas (some of us took longer than others)...
The last you saw of us, we were in the middle of a spooktacular trip to the zoo. Remy was unimpressed, mostly because we wouldn't let him play with the real monkeys. (Not to be mistaken with the monkeys Remy has befriended in the past.)
In addition to costumes and candy, our Fall celebrations would not be complete without a trip to the local pumpkin patch. (Because, let's face it, what Mom passes up the chance for a photo op of her sweetie(s) doing Fall things?!) So out we went, on a beautiful Fall day, to teach Remy the art of picking a pumpkin.
And who would have known that Remy would end up teaching us the proper way to pick a pumpkin?
You taste it, of course!
Yup! It's a keeper (and so are these two!)
Turns out, you can use the same "technique" to determine if the leaves are ready to change...
Happy Fall Y'all!

I chuckled through this entire blog. What fun and the pictures and your comments are just perfect. He is by far the cutest little pumpkin in this pumpkin patch! Love, Mom/Grandma
ReplyDeleteDear Meg,
ReplyDeleteIt seems Remy understands the concept of a "taste test"..and I do see some pumpkin pies in his future !! (without the leaf toppings). He is such a cutie..perhaps he is sending you a subtle message.."I want some real food Mommy"..I can't wait to see him with a drumstick in his hands..and that will be quite soon I am sure..Great pictures..keep them coming.
Love,
Dad
