Apple of My Eye

Nick, Kristina, Micah, and I went apple picking today. What fun! It's such a fall thing to do, and I LOVE fall things to do! And it seems that Micah does, too. What more could he ask for: outdoors, food, Uncle, Auntie, and freedom. I guess if you threw a puddle in there, it would have been The Perfect Outing. The orchard was on a hill, so we were walking on a slope the entire time. It put Micah's superb walking skills to the test. He slipped on some apples a few times, started running down the hill and couldn't stop, and couldn't get up easily after falling. And he enjoyed all of it!

They had a photo contest going on that the guy told us about. Kristina and I snapped a few (okay, a lot) of pictures of Little Man eating his McIntosh apple. Yes, you're allowed to eat one or two during your outing (I'm pretty sure Nick's 6 or 7 was illegal, though!). I entered these four because I couldn't pick just one:




And here are a few others:

Uncle Nicky Nick took Micah up a tree. They're dressed alike, too. Scary!

Auntie Kristina was probably telling M to "say bye-bye to the yucky apples." Of course he was fascinated with all the (mushy) apples on the ground and felt the need to poke as many of them as he could!

I captured him long enough for Kristina to snap a picture or two. Then he was off!

Where's Micah?

    It's hard to choose my favorite one but if I have to choose one I think the one where he's sitting on the McIntosh sign! He's adoreable in all 4 pictures!

    I vote for the one where my baby is holding the baby! But if it a Micah only picture, I would have to say the first one. You can see his chubby little hands, which I adore. Mom F

    I'm glad you all had a fun outing. I cut up an apple for Matthew not too long ago and found out he likes them! He's been turning up his nose at applesause for a while now, so I'm glad he's liking the original product.

    Yeah, I don't know which picture I would have entered either. It's a tough choice, cause he's just so cute in all of them :)
