Wordless Wednesday: Big Beds

Leo the Lion

Another warm November day invites playfulness and giggles that can't be photographed. Enter Leo the Lion. Our little buddy has been hiding around the house the last few weeks but was really "discovered" this weekend. Ben and Mia are absolutely enthralled with our pint-sized pal, taking him everywhere they go. The dynamic duo don't fight over Leo, which is a miracle in its self!

Autumn Arrives

While it's felt like fall for some time now, the leaves have finally fallen. While these golden leaves announce to our toddlers joy and fun, they signal to me (1) lots of work and (2) the beginning of short days with gray, barren trees. I know that very soon we'll miss these bright colors as we're covered in a blanket of snow. This sunny November Friday, however, after a day home with Gary, the kids had a blast playing in the new fallen leaves. It was cold enough to require some bundling, though the kids could have cared less! Eventually cold noses and fingers prevailed and we coaxed them back inside (no small feat!), but I have a feeling that we'll be dragged out again.
