So, I have to confess something. By the middle of my day, I really start getting excited for bedtime. Somedays I count down the hours starting at lunch. Awful right? I love staying at home with the kids, and I wouldn't want another job (well unless it involved eating lots of great food!), but I still look forward to a little "time off" in the evening to watch horrible television, have grown up conversation with Matt, and look through my phone at pictures of the kids....WAIT, WHAT? Yes, even though I'm chomping at the bit to get them to bed, I end up staring at pictures or videos of them once they're asleep! What is wrong with me?!! I just can't get enough I guess.
Now, we're going waaaay back to the end of September....
Zoe figuring out how to pull herself up on the dryer. So proud!
Picking up Leila from school...such a cutie
Showing me her hopscotch skills
Annual apple picking expedition. (Only we didn't pick apples this year...took the lazy man's route and bought them from the orchard store)
First apple. Loved it.

It was FREEZING when we went out. Here's Bubba after about 5 houses..."Look at all this candy! I think I have enough."
Bath time with my baby
50's Day at school. She fell in love with the 50's after this and we listened to the 50's Pandora station everyday for a week...she also requested a poodle skirt for Christmas...and wore her hair this way for several days.
Halloween is over and the Target Christmas Wish Book shows up in the mail...
Saying goodbye to our pumpkins as they rot...
Big baby belly with a lumpy bum
