Happy Monday! Oh goodness, this blog of mine needs some cobwebs dusted off of it. Every night I hope to crack open my laptop and get some words down because my soul misses it, and every night I'm barely alive enough to brush my teeth and crawl into bed. We are very much still figuring out our rhythm, and just when I think we've got it, it falls to pieces. This month has flown by. How? Someone please tell me which button to push in order to stop time for a bit! And if I had another wish, it would be that every weekend would last three days. Thanks in advance.
We've been a busy bunch, and I can't say enough how much I love doing life with my sweet little family. Nathan is a blast, so observant, and simultaneously unaware of what is going on around him. Last weekend we took him to the pumpkin patch with all of Daniel's family. Seeing him with his cousins is the sweetest gift ever, they dote on him like he's a little doll and he soaks all of the attention up. This weekend we went to my school's Fall Carnival. Again, he was completely unaware of what was going on but we loved just experiencing it with him! We dressed him up as a rooster (which is an inside family joke), his shoes and hate refused to stay on, and he was as cute as could be. My mom also took him to get his pictures taken in his costume, and he was a ham for the camera. Yesterday was filled with church, a birthday brunch, errand running, lots of playing, and falling asleep while in. his. high. chair. I don't understand! He fights going to bed at night with everything he's got, but fell right asleep while eating dinner.
I'm still in udder disbelief that the end of October is fast approaching, signaling the start of the holiday season. But having Nathan to do all of these fun adventures with makes life that much better. This week Daniel's work schedule is a bit crazy, but we plan on carving pumpkins as a family and with our life group, visiting another Fall Festival, and going to our first recipe club!
