The last pumpkin

Recently, we cut-up our second (and last) pumpkin. The girls were a big help getting all the seeds out! (Oh, and just a question. Do you eat roasted pumpkin seeds whole, just as they are, or do you take the shell off and just eat what's inside? I eat them whole, but David insists that you are not to eat the shell, just what's inside. What do you think?) I baked a couple of apples, and now Micah is enjoying a mixture of apples and pumpkin puree. Yummy.

David had his first German class at the university yesterday. This was the beginners class, and so he found himself speaking more Russian than German, but he enjoyed it.

This morning, I was trying to teach the girls which hand is left, and which one is right. I told them that their right hand is the one which they eat with (as they are both right-handed). Aria then asked, "mommy, is our left hand for drinking juice with?"

This evening, Nina jumped on our bed, fell off, and hit her head. After she was done crying, we could hear Aria scolding her in their room saying, "Nina, you know you aren't supposed to jump on mama and papa's bed. That's a no-no. You disobeyed. Remember, "children obey your parents in the L, for this is right!" Hmmm... too bad Aria doesn't always remember that herself!
