Today was a beautiful day. Perfect fall weather, busy but not stressed, an outdoor afternoon. Just perfect.
I spent the morning running around, dropping kids at school, awesome workout at the gym, back to pick up Eve, shower and back to the gym (for a session on goal setting!), a little shopping and home in time to meet Lex at the bus stop. That was hectic, but Eve was in great spirits so it went well. After a quick snack we headed outside. The sun was beautiful, the leaves were abundant and I couldn’t put the camera down!

- Photo by Eve (Lex didn’t want to pose with me)
-
- I wanted to get a sweet picture of them sitting together… this is as close as I got!
-
- This is what they did most of the time I was trying to get that sweet picture. This one cracks me up though. She is yelling and he’s calmy ignoring her and eating a snack.

- This made me think of a leaf bus

-
- Eve’s new trick. I used to love swinging like this!
-
- Lex has been super crafty lately! I love it. While I was making dinner tonight he decided he wanted to be with me, so he got out some crayons and paper and made this. All his idea from start to finish! Later, after the photo, he added “BOO!” to it.

- Halloween sneak peek (that’s Lex in there!)

- Eve’s turn in the spidey suit.
-
- After trying on his Halloween costume Lex decided to make himself a goody bag for trick-or-treating. I love it!! It’s not very practical and quite small, but I love the idea and his ingenuity.
