Jennifer brought blackberries up to Breckenridge and Annabelle got her first taste and has been a big fan ever since. I bought a big crate of them at Costco and they are being devoured. I remember buying fruit from Costco before I had kids and it would spoil before we could get through it all – not a problem any more! I still think grapes are Annabelle’s favorites…she asks for them by name while referring to herself as Apple – “Apple more grapes, Apple more grapes”. What a character!

Annabelle was enjoying her blackberries so much that we felt it was just plain mean to not let GG have a taste too. We tried out the mesh baby feeders and GG got lots of sweet blackberry juice! Both girls were very happy and VERY messy.

Annabelle had cream corn for the first time tonight – another huge hit! Little girl has lost her mind if she thinks I’m going to just hand over my camera to those messy hands!

After dinner the girls were in serious need of a bath. Blackberry juice everywhere!

They clean up pretty nice though….

We buckled the girls into the car and off we went to Costco – with these fruit-eating, diaper-wearing, wipes-using, goldfish-devouring, applesauce-loving girls we get our money’s worth in our membership. We have really got this shopping bit down to a science. In just 30 minutes we were able to load our cart with all the essentials and blow 200 bucks….HOW DOES THAT HAPPEN??? I can answer my own question – diapers, diapers, diapers, but my goodness. There are three stores that are the crutch of my existence and I can never get out for less than $100 – Target, Babies R Us, and Costco. Costco has now been bumped to the $200 range. I think it’s time to start potty training!
