Fall is finally here...

I love this time of year when the air starts to get crisp, and you begin to see pumpkins on front porches. We have three on ours, which I hope to carve one of them this weekend. It’s been feeling cooler in the evenings and early mornings. Last Sunday evening, I put Ayla in one of her Halloween outfits. I bought her and Jackson matching orange and white onesies with pumpkins on them, which we plan to take pictures of them in soon. They have matching pumpkin hats, too. Jackson has a cold right now, so we are going to have to wait until he feels better. She was too cute dressed all "Halloweeny" (yes, I do realize that really isn't a word) ... if I do say so myself. It's funny though... she obviously has no idea what I'm putting on her, so I take full advantage of her inability to "fight" me on the few ridiculous things I do put her in. For example, the bow that I had in her hair Sunday had to be slightly annoying because it kept getting in her face, but she certainly wasn’t able to reach up there and take it off, so she wore it for hours. Tonight, I had her in this adorable orange and white diaper cover and pumpkin hat, and she just looked at us with this (I have no idea what you are doing to me) face. Our church fall festival is this Saturday, so, we’ll get some pictures of Ayla and Jackson in their Halloween costumes. They are going to be too cute, but you’ll have to wait until the pictures hit the blog!

Sunday, it was cool before we left for church, so Ayla got to wear one of her cute pink sweaters. By noon it was warm, and it had to come off.

Ayla and "Maverick," striking a pose. Daddy says these shades are coming back in style, but we aren't so sure!


One night last week when I was trying to fix dinner... Brett attempted to entertain Ayla by singing and dancing. It worked for a little while, but I grabbed my camera a few minutes too late. I guess Daddy's "comedy" had worn off!

Ayla on Mommy's lap. Mommy still has her PJs on, but Ayla had gotten a bath and was wearing "day" clothes.


This was taken Sunday night after she'd worn this outfit for about 5 hours. I am really mad that I didn't take her picture before we left, but we were running late, and I waited too long. You can tell she isn't very happy in either picture, but in bottom one her "true" feelings came out!

She was sleepy and ready to eat (again)!!

Aren't her pumpkin socks and size one Keds adorable!

Halloween outfit #2!
Notice her cute socks that look like she's wearing "Mary Jane" shoes. Pam Herren gave these to her. There are several other colors, but the black ones go well with her Halloween attire.
