Enjoying the Fall Weather as Much as Possible

This whole summer and fall as been a real bummer for weather. Our summer was much cooler than average and it rained a lot. Unfortunately this has continuted into fall. It rained literally all day yesterday, we got over 3 inches, and this morning it rained here again. I had plans to take Andrina to the same pumpkin farm with the carnival rides that we went to on Monday after her art classs at Gymboree. But it was still raining after her class so I took Andrina to the closest mall to enjoy their soft play area. Generic yes, but she enjoyed it. And a bonus for me, I got lots of spontaneous hugs and kisses from my little love during her art class and while at the mall! Another bonus was that it stopped raining and the sun even came out while we were eating lunch.

I told Andrina that after she finished lunch she needed to take a nap and that she needed to actually sleep during her nap and when she woke up, I would take her to a pumpkin farm and fair. Andrina talked about this while getting ready for her nap and, miracle of all miracles, she actually slept during her naptime! She was so adorable when she woke up from her nap, she was literally jumping up and down in her crib shouting, "pumpkin farm, fair"! So it worked out just great. We went to the fair again and rode more little kiddie rides. I didn't take my camera today, I was just so happy that it stopped raining and Andrina took a nap so she was able to enjoy an afternoon activity with the weather cooperating.
