Fall

Autumn has finally arrived. We've been blessed this fall, it's been beautiful weather. We even had Thanksgiving dinner while wearing tank tops and shorts - seriously!! But I think that is gone now. One of our trees is completely bare and the oaks are just starting to shed their leaves. That's one thing we hadn't really thought about when we were looking for a house last year. We wanted mature trees...without taking into account that we would have to RAKE the yard too!!

My baby just keeps getting bigger...we're trying the big girl bed again. We had limited success in the summertime, but right in the middle of that, we took our trip to the cottage, which was great and fun and wonderful, but played havoc with Addie's sleeping habits and resulted in a month or so of refusing her bed, choosing to stay with mommy and daddy. We got big girl blankets and everything on it now, so we'll give this another try!

And where would we be without projects? Dan and his dad tore apart our purple bathroom on the weekend...and let's just say that it's not quite habitable yet. They've gutted, mudded, sanded, scraped and painted. All that is left is to put in the flooring, the vanity and the toilet. Then all will be functioning again. I'll post a pic of the (mostly) gutted room, but no finished project yet!
