Fall

I love fall.  The cool evenings and early mornings the mild days are wonderful.  When I think of fall I think of pumpkin pies, apples, leaves changing and dusting the winter coats out. I walked outside last night to enjoy the cool weather and all I could think about is having a small fire.  (that would be very hard for us to do since we live on a second floor apartment)   I am really looking forward to my husband and kids carving pumpkins this year.  Somethings a mom does but daddies always do better. It is so much fun and a little daunting with the holidays coming up my (3 yr old almost 4). Is really starting to grasp Halloween and Christmas. She keeps telling me that there are scary ghost on halloween and she is going to be a Princess but not scary but brother is going to be a really scary pirate so the ghost will stay away. The things kids pick up on is amazing.  Now if she would understand that Santa is watching and she needs to be good.  The kids are about to wake up and hit the ground running.  I hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather as well.

Life

Its been a crazy hectic time for us here.  Busy Busy  Busy.   My loving husband has been home for a couple of mths now.  Hard to think its been that long seems like he got home yesterday at least till I look and the laundry pile.  The kids are adjusting well.  The kids are not used to me having back up.  My oldest is always shocked when daddy gets home and he already knows when she has done something she shouldn't.  It's hard not to laugh with the look of total and utter shock on her face.  (text messages come in handy).  My youngest (21mths) is getting used to (I use that term Lightly) to not being the man of the house anymore.  So life is settling down for us now.
