Welcome Fall

 This was our last big summer hurrah- a backyard camp out.  Jane and I had a mommy-daughter sleepover in our little tent.  I love camping.  I love the crisp night air, sweats, and extra blankets.  A family camp out would have been lovely...but out little Molly doesn't do well outside her routine.  By that I mean it would have taken her FOREVER to fall asleep.  We went on three trips this summer where I had to endure hours of her playing around before she would fall asleep.  I love the girl to death but when it's time for bed I am ready to checkout of mommyhood!  Soooo, Molly and daddy did their normal thing while Jane and I did our thing.  Oh, and flashlights are lots of fun :)

What screams September more than picking apples?  Next to hayrides to the pumpkin patch, going to the apple orchard is tops on our list of fall fun.  And who doesn't like dozens of apples for such things as warm apple crisp? 

Here's some pics of the girls at the orchard-








And that brings us to school.  Jane went back to school, and boy do those 2 short hours that she is gone fly.  I have all these wonderful intentions to get things done while she's away.  But the reality is, by the time I get home, but Molly down for a quick nap, there's just not much time!  She loves her little school though, which makes me happy.


 Lastly, something that's been weighing on me a lot lately is that my baby is not a baby anymore!  Geez Louise!  How does did I let time slip through my fingers?  Our girl is a whopping 15 months!  She's running, climbing up ladders, going down slides, doing somersaults!   Her animal sounds are the cutest.  And she loves to cuddle in your lap with a book.  She loves babies.  She can't sleep without her nuk and her bear.  She loves to eat goldfish crackers and hates to sit down at the table!


 Happy Fall!
