We spent Saturday at the Pumpkin patch. . . Emma & Daddy went through the corn maze. When asked how it was, Daddy replied, "Well, we made it out." Em had no comment. We went looking for a giant daddy-sized pumpkin, and came home with a tiny Ava-sized one.
This is all 6 Christianson grandkids. Isaac (8mo), Ava (7.5 mo), Eli (8mo), Hannah (1.5 yrs), Emma (5 yrs), Noah (3.5 yrs) . . . where is Noah? Likely running around - I know there was a pic of him but I guess this wasn't it!
Brad's family from Portland, Seattle & Boise came for the weekend. We went out to Kelly & Jon's vineyard Sat night for a dinner and to pick grapes. We also bottled some wine Jon had made 2 years ago, and pressed some grapes for jelly & wine.
Sunday, Brad & I left the girls with mom & dad so we could go buy the yeast for Brad's wine. Until Hometown starts stalking it, we drive to the TriCities or order online.

Ava is babbling but not really repeating the sounds yet. She's loving her food - we let her suck on some grapes this weekend, but she really is only eating Sweet Potatoes, Acorn Squash, cereal and a bit of fruit chunked up in her mesh feeder.
