Cherry Picking

Well...I blew off my early morning workout to go cherry picking. Tate had a great time picking the cherries. And yes, he did help. He's such a great little helper! The only part of the cherry picking that he didn't like was walking to them. They had just mowed the grass, but the grass was still a little tall and Tate definitely didn't like walking through it. While Tate and I cherry picked, Colt thought that it was appropriate to scream and cry almost the entire time. Needless to say, Colt didn't like cherry picking. I must say that I did make the best of it and Colt needs to get used to it because we'll be blueberry, peach, and apple picking this year; not to mention that we'll be picking next year as well.

I'll leave you guys with some pictures of Tate in the orchard.

Well, Colt didn't have the best day. Today was his first appointment with the doctor where he received shots. Tonight he's really tired and fussy. I just hope that he'll sleep through most of the night. I must say that he did well at the doctor's office. He cried a little during his shots, but he didn't mind having the doctor and nurse examine him. Usually he's quite a happy little baby. I'll end the posting with his stats from the appointment.
