Rainy market

IMG_1499a.jpg

It was a pretty rainy market this morning. I tried to pretend that it was just showers for a while, but it was really rain, though not continuous. I fully intended to bail with the kids, and leave Cornelia there to do it alone, but one thing led to another and we were having fun so we did the whole market.

Rainy days are certainly not great for business, but they are not as bad as you would think. People like to cook when it rains, so they buy more veggies, assuming they're willing to brave the rain and come out.

Anyway, Henry snoozed in the backpack, with my raincoat mostly protecting him, and he later practiced standing, which he is very into these days. He turned seven months last Friday!!

Waverly and Quinn hung out in the back of the car, where it was dry, and put on puppet shows for passersby. The CSA kids were an awesome audience, staying out in the rain, and later joining in the show. It was fun.
