Happy Fall!

You know what’s a fun way to wake up in the morning? With a tiny baby foot wedged between your ribs. Ooof. Feet down, kiddo. He’s always super active right when I’m trying to go to sleep at night and first thing in the morning… which bodes well for his newborn schedule, huh?

Breakfast this morning was a GIANT bowl of pumpkin yogurt:

Waaay too much food here, though you can bet that I cleaned the bowl. Plain yogurt mixed with canned pumpkin, topped with Quaker Cinnamon Oatmeal Squares, raw trail mix, and honey.

I’m almost finished with my little project for Jack’s room. Nothing too exciting; just dividers to hang in his closet that separate the clothes into age group/sizes. I still need to drill holes in the top and attach ribbon hangers. But cute so far, no?

My parents are on vacation in Michigan right now, and my mom asked that I pick up one of their dogs at the vet once or twice while they’re gone and let her hang out for a bit. Sophie (their king charles spaniel) and Chloe get along really, really well, but Chloe does NOT get along with their other dog, Annie (shih tzu). Anyway, today I picked up Sophie and she’s spending the night tonight. Chloe spent all afternoon trying to hump her. Poor Sophie- she takes it like a champ.

Lunch wasn’t too exciting- leftover chili and tortilla chips:

I don’t know if it got above 70 degrees outside today. Fantastic!! I can’t wait to pull out the hoodies and Uggs. Though I think it’s supposed to be back in the 90′s this weekend.

My afternoon was thrilling. Lots of laundry… and trying to put the kibosh on all of the pug-humping. Don’t be jealous. Once Brian got home we decided to leave the nympho dogs behind and go out for dinner. Barbeque sounded good and we had a coupon for Red Hot and Blue’s. I had a giant baked potato stuffed with pulled chicken:

‘Twas delicious. Oh, and I’m not ashamed to admit that my favorite thing about this restaurant is that they serve the soft drinks in cute little pitchers.

    Oooh, too cute! those clothing dividers. Can’t wait to see the finished nursery. Do we get a virtual tour video? Just something to do in your “spare” time. :)

    Do we intend our child to be naked between 18 and 24 months?

    I look forward to football, not being hot all the time and laughing at the pug in her Halloween costume.

    Can’t wait until next year when we can laugh at the pug & Jack!
