Mommy is tired and the thought of hauling the kids out at least an hour from the city with 1 million of my closest friends makes me feel more tired.
I just can't do it.
Aren't perfect mommies suppose to do that every October - go to the pumpkin patch, pay inflated prices, pick apples and fight the crowds?
Isn't that the politically correct Fall outing? Aren't I suppose to take perfect family pictures of my kids running in the patch, jumping in the leaves, climbing on the hay bales?
I just can't do it this year.
Esther told me that she doesn't like the pumpkin patch that much anyway - see exhibit "A" taken when she was 8 months old. ( Not sure if she was sad about the pumpkin patch or wearing vintage Gymboree though)
She also said "don't they sell pumpkins at Target?"
Yes, Esther.they.do!
Perfect Fall Pumpkin Picture - check that off my list.

OMG, you crack my sh*t up!!! Love the pics! And yes... with a newborn, I think Target is a PERFECT pumpkin outing!
we got ours @ walmart and didn't even take pics. no guilt here!
I am so jealous you have a Super Target.
I love it! That pic of her under the Target sign~ too great.
Perfect fall pumpkin picture, indeed!
who needs a farm when you can walk on shiny floors and pick up a fresh latte from Starbucks while you are at it? Or a salad from D'Amico? You made the right choice, hands downs.
looking at the picture of Esther who would have ever thunk she would have been a foofoo girl!! Nothing wrong with target pumpkins. Love the before and after comparison
Good call, if it makes you feel any better, this perfect mother isn't going to shlep her kids 10 miles to our local patch that is no doubt a MUD PIT after 4 weeks of constant rain, just to buy a pumpkin. They will be lucky if I find one at HyVee at this point. Bah Humbug with Halloween this year.
