Halloween

Trick or treating with Autumn this year was so much fun!! She loved, loved, loved her mermaid outfit, and it was too cute watching her walk around in it. She has been obsessed with The Little Mermaid, so when she saw the costume in the store...that was it, she was going to be a mermaid for Halloween. She still wears it around the home. The next morning when we woke up and walked outside she looked at me and said "no treats mommy?" Just once a year little goose!

Zoo trip...again

We took another trip to the zoo (I love my season pass) awhile ago before the weather started to get cooler. I know I've said it before, but it really is cool to watch the baby elephants together, which is why we went. Autumn is really into watching the animals, but when I asked her what her favorite part was she said "food". I guess I can't argue with that!

On a side note we went to the Carnegie History Museum today with Aunt Nellie, Grammie, and Papa. Autumn did very well walking around and looking at the exhibits. I hadn't seen the dinosaur exhibit since it was finished. I thought it was definitely worth the trip...so if anyone comes to visit and wants to go...we're in! There was also a "life on mars" temproary exhibit that was interesting to walk around. I enjoyed a portion of art work concerning suburbia...makes you want to advoid sprawling America...

Update

I know it has been what feels like forever and I havn't had a chance to put up some new pictures!! School work has kept me so busy, I can't even begin to explain what the end up the semester is going to feel like. I won't know what to do with myself!! Everyone here is doing well. Autumn is really starting to talk a lot more. Everyday she says something else that cracks me up. I love it!!
This girl has got some personality. Autumn has been having some "terrible two" moments, and I had to call my friend for some "are all the 2 year olds acting crazy today?" Which, they were, go figure. Some weeks I feel like...wow, she is really behaving well, and listening, and this is so much fun. While other days it's like...where did you come from?!! And then she'll come over and say "I better Mommy", which just melts your heart. Oh, the joys of being a parent. Some random pictures...
