Fall... Finally!!!

Our big boy in his Johnny Jump up. He loves this thing, and the other two love to bounce right along with him!
The fam at the pumpkin patch just after we picked out our "punkins."
Proof that I had just as much fun as the kiddos did.
This might be one of the funniest pictures I have ever seen!!! That's Sam in case you couldn't tell! Hilarious!
This is our Ni Hao, Kai Lan ballerina. Our little girl is really enjoying her dress up closet, and let me tell you she comes up with some pretty creative combos!


I am so thankful that Fall is finally here!!! I am LOVING the cool mornings and nights. The somewhat cool breeze during the day isn't half bad either. Not only do I love the weather that comes with the fall season, but I also really enjoy all of the activities! My parents came to visit this week, and we spent the day at the Dreamfield Farms Pumpkin Patch. I think I may have had just as much fun or more than the kids did! The weather was perfect, and we had a great time!!!

This fall has also brought some changes in our home with Sam becoming mobile. He literally learned to crawl in just a few days. I knew he was close, and then one day I was in the kitchen unloading the dishwasher, and in he comes... crawling!!! I'm not sure I'm ready for this; it really has changed our world. In some ways there's a lot more freedom, and he is much more content. I remember the first time that Lydi got upset with TW and it happened when he was able to crawl in her room and get into her stuff. Well, imagine that now with two older ones! On top of that Sam is our feistiest yet. He has already made both TW and Lydi cry. Oh my!!! I can't imagine what life will be like this time next year.

Our little guy will be 8 months old this next week, and I am so sad that our baby is not going to be a baby much longer. I am beyond thankful for these little blessings, and I continue to ask the Lord to give me much wisdom and grace as I seek to shepherd their little hearts! Enjoy the pictures...
