Finally Fall!


I am so in love with this time of year. It's so romantic!! The leaves turning colors making the world so lovely and magical. The crisp air is perfect for fires, cuddling and hot cider. Apples are ripe for the picking. Scarecrows, hay bales, corn stalks and pumpkins decorate lawns and houses all around. Halloween is right around the corner...which means Halloween movies for a month. It makes me giddy just thinking about it! I truly wish it were like this all year round. The perfect weather-not too hot, not too cold-and it's gorgeous!

There are also a lot of birthdays this time of year. Fiona will be 1 in less than a month! I just can't believe how fast it's going.
It seems like just yesterday I was pregnant with her! Yesterday we went and picked up her birthday present (yes, it's early, but the price was right now, and she doesn't care about her birthday yet), a Little tykes mini climber with slide. It's perfect for her, and she loves it! After that comes Eoghan. He'll be 4! He's so tall and so smart that you'd swear he's 5. That means that next year, he gets to go to pre-k. We're all so excited for that! I have a feeling that this year will be huge for him. A week after Eoghan's b-day is Jim's! I have to remind him that I already got his birthday present ...a bellows for helping him start fires in the fire pit. I'm thinking it will be a great night to get a sitter and go out for a date night WITHOUT CHILDREN! It will be the first time for us to go out alone since the baby's been born. I am looking forward to that!

I better get back to Eoghan...gotta cuddle up and watch "Percy Jackson"~
