Smack
dab in the middle of a 93-degree day with a heat index of ~158 degrees,
we decided to make the trek to Eckert's with our friends for an
afternoon full of [what was supposed to be] FALL fun!
However!
Harper was in the sulkiest of sulky moods while traipsing around the
fun farm; a total a sucker of a friend for little Owen who was excited
to play with her! She was insisting that I hold her or that she ride in
the stroller [and of course I only packed the single stroller for
Scarlett knowing it would be too hot to carry her all day in the
Catbirdbaby]. She usually isn't bothered by the heat, so I have no idea
what was wrong with her...
...but luckily she snapped out of it and cheered up once we boarded the wagon for apple picking! 
Apples here, apples there, and apples EVERYWHERE! Scarlett enjoyed her first time picking apples!
Harper
thought it was the coolest thing ever that she could taste test
the apples out in the orchard, and Scarlett thought it was the coolest
thing ever that she could pluck a blade of grass and successfully
transfer it to her lips before her mean momma caught a glimpse and
rushed over to finger sweep her mouth.
After we rode the wagon back and paid for our bag of apples, we sat in the front seat of the car for a few
lot of minutes with the A/C pumping full blast so all three of us could
cool off and Scarlett could nurse. Both of the kids were zonked out a
few minutes into the drive home and continued their naps for another 2!
full! hours! after made it back home! HOLY SUMMER in mid-September! Me no likey.
Then! Post-nap smiles from everyone...
...and a freshly picked and washed snack for everyone!
Happy hot-as-Hades fall, y'all!
