I love this season.
\n The weather is great, the leaves are beautiful (more on that
\n later!) and its just a great time of year. We’ve been going
\n outside a lot lately, though not as much as I’d like to. It’s
\n still tough to coordinate sleeping\/nursing\/outside schedules,
\n but we manage. There is no shortage of raking to be done!! See
\n all the leaves on the ground in the picture and video? I raked
\n that part of the lawn clean about three times in the past week
\n and there are still tons of leaves on the trees! Last year the
\n previous owners did no raking, so when we moved in at the end
\n of October there were more leaves than we could rake. No
\n kidding! I was raking leaves this past spring :) There’s got to
\n be a more efficient way to handle this process, but for now
\n it’s a good excuse to go outside and it keeps us busy. <\/p>\n

Here is a little (ok, long), mostly silent
\n video of them in the yard today.
[youtube=http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=im686PkgmNg]Notice his new
\n kicks?? Ok, probably hard to see in the video. I took a picture
\n of them, but it’s not really blog worthy :) The only way you
\n can tell they are new is because they are cleaner than his old
\n ones. We went to Kohl’s today and I told him we were going to
\n get new Vans. He was psyched! We found them on the shelf and he
\n grabbed them and put them in the stroller. I was showing him
\n other shoes (“these shoes have cool dump trucks on them.”
\n “look, it’s Elmo”), but he kept saying “no, want the Vans.”
\n Can’t argue there. When we got home he brought them in to show
\n Alan and promptly put them on. So we’re all set with sneakers
\n for now. No need for the Crocs this winter (though have you
\n seen the fleece lined crocs<\/a>?).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
