Fall fun


























We've been enjoying a lot of fall activities with this nice weather (in the 70's) the last few days! We went to a pumpkin patch with Moi's school Wednesday and then went to Pigeon Roost Thursday morning. We just love all the pretty fall colors.

Moira is taking to her glasses VERY well. Dare I say surprizingly well. She will ask for them. She says they make everything bigger. I don't really think they are helping the eye turn though. The Dr. said if it was going to help, it would only take a few days, but I can tell it isn't bigger. I have talked to a few people about the surgery and they said it's not a big deal, so we'll see.

Moira loves her new room! Our house might be on the small side but I am pretty sure MOira is one of the few 4 years olds with her own walk in play room, bathroom and flat screen tv! She hasn't asked to watch the tv even once! Although I thought we would leave it there for her to have some afternoon quiet time, but no quiet time for us....

Grady made the transition to his room just fine. He's been sleeping from 7pm(ish)-6 am(ish). He takes 2 1.5 hour naps, one in the morning around 8:30-10 and one from around 2-3:30, give or take. Finally a routine! He is sooooo close to crawling. He is army crawling now. He started waving this week. So cute! He waves at everything, including pictures on the wall. He seems to be a pretty verbal kid so far, making lots of consanant and vowel sounds. He is eating maybe 70% small pieces of regular food. I need to really push the baby food in the near future as we have quite a stock and I am afraid he is going to be "over it" soon. I realized yesterday when I was packing a lunch for the kids to eat at the pumpkin farm that most of the stuff Moira eats, Grady could eat too. Small pieces of cheese, mandarin oranges, cereal bar. He is still a very friendly happy baby!

Moira always has a hard time adjusting to the clothes of a new season but she is finally wearing long sleeves (pushed up) and long pants (with mild bribing). Only a matter of time before we are into fall wardrobe! This is a big deal for mommy.
