Embracing Fall

My mom and Aunt Jenny came to visit last weekend. We were so busy I completely forgot to take any pictures! Anyways, we have really been enjoying this season. The temperatures are cool in the morning, warm in the afternoon, and then it returns chilly in the evenings. Thankfully we finally bought a leaf blower to clear out all the leaves in our yard and driveway. However, it is covered again within a day or two.

Sister has been doing great. She now is 9 weeks. She has her 2 month appointment tomorrow. For the past couple of weeks she has been sleeping 7-8 hour stretches at night which has been great. She is a very scheduled girl. I love dressing her in cute dresses with tights and of course big bows!

 This boy has been doing great with his walking. He walks everywhere and is now even trying to run.

While my mom and aunt were here we did a project. My aunt had gotten the idea off of Pinterest. We framed different pieces of fabric with embroidery hoops. I love how it turned out and there was an empty spot in our playroom that needed a little something. 

Last time my mom was here we did this project. This sits on our mantel and I love it!

My mom also brought an old rocking chair I remember having as a child. It needed a little updating so Eric and I painted it red and added our W. The boys love rocking in it.

And Everett did a few projects of his own, this being one of them. When the sun shines through it, it makes a Jack-O-Lantern shadow on the floor. 

This was the only recent picture I could get of Everett. He is still not a fan of the camera. He just got a haircut and it is so cute. I got it cut shorter in the front and now we can finally see more of his cute face. His Halloween/Fall party is on Thursday at preschool and he is going to be a doctor. 

We are definitely embracing this season not only with fun outdoors in the cool temperatures and crafting, but with our food selection as well. I am trying to make the most out of pumpkin. I have made pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin ravioli, and tonight I am making pumpkin soup. Can't Autumn last all year long?
