Happy Fall Y'all

It feels like it's been way longer than just over a month since I posted. 
Since going back to work, life has been busy and regimented to help us get through the days in a (mostly) happy state of being. Everyone is getting fed, washed, clothed and resting at night and we try to sneak some fun in there too!

The boys are heading out the door to work and daycare. 

Jack reads this book EVERY. single. DAY. 
At night time, it's THIS book no matter what. Even if we try to bribe him with 3 other books to read. We must end with this one.

Daddy built us a fire! 
"ooo, hot!"

Miss C turned 3 months

Candy corn heads

 A muddy day at the pumpkin patch

 Jack was in wheelbarrow heaven

 Mama and Cora bundled up to keep each other warm

 We survived the 2nd annual pumpkin patch extravaganza! 

 Cora is wanting so badly to be upright rather than laying down lately, and she makes it known with LOTS of chatter

 We went grocery shopping at the grocery store! Fun times and fun activities too for all the kiddos

 Concentrating on his pumpkin carving craft
 Daddy and Cora are supervising the work

 Four happy pumpkins. Mama doesn't like to carve scary ones.

 Cora was a gnome

 
 Jack would be nothing but a fireman, or a "direwriter" if you ask him. 
We're working on the "F" sound.

 And all the grandkids gathered at GG Fayes to trick or treat a night early



 Jack lucked out and got to trick or treat only because the weather was perfect and he clearly needed an activity to occupy his mind and energy that evening. We went around the block, but he still got lots of candy and it took us almost an hour lol


 Mommy and Daddy were able to sneak away to the beach for a day date.

 jack still thinks the bumbo is his chair and was using it to peruse the library

 Current favorite toy? Tongs from the kitchen. Very useful for lego clean up

 Out with the old couch...

 ...in with the new

And after all that Cora turned 4 months old too!

We are booked up and gearing up for the holiday season. I'm finding myself in the Christmas spirit early this year and I'm the annoying one listening to Christmas music on the radio already and asking Steve to bring down all my Christmas boxes.
Looking forward to all things Merry and Bright this season!
