Waiting for October...

I don't know why, but I feel like once it hits October, we've made it a long way, and time will go faster to the end of the year! Silly, I know, but making it to October feels like an accomplishment. Besides, there are so many holidays with activities that happen in October, November, and December! It'll be so fun, and before we know it - BAM! Jason has a two week break! Hallelujah!

In the meantime, we're just trying to enjoy each day as it comes. We're so lucky to have the Crapo family living in our same complex! Play dates are always a highlight for the kids, and Kassie and I enjoy being able to have some time interacting with adults...lol. I'm so grateful to have such a great friend so close!  Here is a picture that Kassie (who is an amazing photographer) took when we all went to the pool together...



Isn't that the most adorable thing ever??!!

Here's something not as adorable - me laying on the kitchen floor while something in the oven finishes baking. This was my 15 mins of Zen while Jason gave the girls a bath... Hey - a mom's gotta do what a mom's gotta do.



The rainy days are going to become a more frequent thing now that fall is here! Here is Abby peaking in the door at Lilly's school, waiting for her sister to come out! Thanks Grammie for the adorable rain coat!



Ah, the generous employee at the YMCA who had left over birthday cupcakes and shared. These two were in heaven! Free cupcakes? Winning!  Mommy, however, having them eat said cupcakes right before going in to the grocery store - not winning...

Notice the cupcake wrapper on Abby's chest? Yeah - crumbs and frosting were EVERYWHERE! 
My late nighter... (not a school night)



I was very proud of myself for coming up with this gem: my own personal bathroom spa! Eucalyptus steam, yoga music, and a nice hot shower... Ahhhh....


I have some pictures of me as a child doing this same thing! Love Lilly's silly face, and Abby's pure joy!


Grammie sent the girls beads so they could make necklaces and bracelets! It was a huge it! The girls LOVED it!


Time for your check-up! Jason was using me as a practice patient for doing his Physical Examination. Abby saw, and came over patting her head with a sad face saying, "Owie." She wanted to be examined too! It was the cutest thing...


Waiting at the YMCA for Lilly's swim lessons to start...


We know how to make a week full of fun!
