Farm Fresh Apples

Now that the nights are cooling very quickly, we are sent inside much sooner than we are used too. Instead of heading up for a bath the girls are starting to take to a before bedtime snack. Being that we are on the veggie or fruit snack protocol, we are enjoying freshly picked apples. Of course they are loaded with warm caramel and yummy whipped cream (I can't be too much of snack Nazi). These apples are so good that even I am asking for more when the bowl is empty.

Lila Grace sits at the island like a big girl now. It is so nice to be high chair free for the 15 minutes. Unfortunately, my island only holds two stools so Adeline is still stuck in the high chair. I don't think I would trust her in a stool anyway (they are backless).

We sit, the girls make funny faces and enjoy feeding one another. They all like watching the whipped cream come out of the can. It has been a nice routine for the past few nights and I am hoping it will carry us through the dark dreary months that lie ahead.

Just for the record, these pictures are of Miss Grace smiling on command! I wish she would do it every time.
