Yes! Fall is officially here. We celebrated cooler weather with fall decorations and a homemade pumpkin pie this weekend.
Fall is my favorite time. ( I know, I say that at the start of each season!)
Fresh baked apple pie. Delicious pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Pumpkin spice candle burning on a cool evening. Fall leaves crunching. Earlier bedtimes. Cool mornings. I get in the baking mood and I love wearing my sweater and jeans!
Here's a little update on what we've been up to since school has been back in session
Dave:running, gardening, work, and baking up a storm in the kitchen. I'm a blessed wife!
Kimmy: Running, swimming, classes at the gym, teaching a creative movement class to toddlers and a mommy and me class. (oh how cute are the tutus) I'm no longer working as a behavioral interventionist. I'm really enjoying my shorter hours and time in the studio as a dance teacher to toddlers! it's a nice change.
Caleb: school, his friends, his teacher, bike riding, art, legos, homework (yes he loves it), reading, writing, spelling, and my oh my so many sight words!
Lucas: loves preschool, drawing, legos, bike riding, and napping (he sure loves his sleep like his mama)
Noah: loves talking, saying "no" especially, chasing his brothers, drawing on the floors (hide all markers beware) eating, and legos
His favorite words are: no! go! done! bob (his minon), Dog (his lovey), mama, dada, hi, bye, more, up, nack (snack), roar (laura), ball, and I forget the rest, but he is learning more and more by the day and is proving himself to be a feisty little guy, always trying to keep up with his brothers.
We're all enjoying family weekends at the beach, or being home baking or working in the yard. We have a family membership to a local gym so I've been able to take the big boys swimming on the weekends and it has been so nice! I love being able to swim laps by myself early in the morning during the week or do the work out classes they have there (spin, body shred, etc) while the boys are still sleeping before the busy school day begins it is the best way to wake up and get going before the rest of the house is awake.
I'm enjoying bible study fellowship again, (we're studying Revelation) and dave and I are doing a study together called, The Armor of God, by Priscilla Shrier. I think it is going to be a good one! It is really geared for women but I've been wanting to do it for awhile and figured he would enjoy it too! Those moments as husband and wife studying the Word or just having conversation without three little ones under foot are so precious and needed!
Dave planted two new garden beds on the side of the house and the boys love helping him out in the yard. It's exciting to have three gardens and fruit trees ripe for the picking.
Hope you're having a beautiful fall!
