Pa. Weekend

Look Mom, I caught a butterfly with my net! Or as Logan would say "barfly"...hehe

Uncle Jimmy, Uncle Jimmy
Logan is at the stage where when you tell him to smile he automatically closes his eyes. I remember this with Olivia. Don't know why, but that's not a smile.

Olivia, Aurora, and Logan at grandma's & pappy's. Cute kids I must say!!

Fall

Well fall is moving in and out at a rapid pace these days. Seems not long ago we were sweating, now we are freezing and the trees are becoming bare. I enjoy fall, but not what's coming behind it. I have heard people talk of the holiday in december (I won't mention it yet) and counting the days down already. I have also received my first black friday email. I do looove the dec. holiday, but I need to be a millionaire, so stickin bad. I need to get through halloween first, then think about what i need for "that holiday".

Logan is funny. He didn't like the leaves last yr. and is not taking kind to them this year. Not his cup of tea. He was forced into the leaves and couldn't wait to get back out. It's interesting the things he won't touch and doesn't like. Doesn't bother him to do flips off the arms of my chairs though. I'm really starting to see the big differences between boys and girls. There are many, some good and some bad.

Our dogs blend in quite well with the leaves. Sometimes you have to take a second look up the yard when they are outside to find them.

My little boy....he's just got that charisma that makes you want to squeeze and kiss him!!

Wow, I didn't realize it had been so long since I last wrote. Time does fly by these days. As you can see by the pic above, Olivia has been busy drawing. On a sad note, the rain recently washed it all away. Figures, it hardly rains here and after she draws this in the driveway for all incoming company to see...gone.

I am trying to make more time for myself as I would like to get back into reading my books again, but for some reason, I have less time than I did before. Maybe it's trying to get so much done before Logan comes home from school or maybe I just added more to my plate and didn't even realize it.

Logan is doing well in school, I guess. He doesn't say much about it, which can be really frustrating at times. Olivia has a awesome teacher this year and she's being pushed to limits and doesn't even realize it. That's a good teacher. This yr. should be fun, then on to Middle school and I don't think that's going to be as fun.

Well let's face it, the Holidays will be here before we know it. I have started thinking already and I should be doing a layaway by now. Haven't I learned from the previous yrs.! I am still trying to get the kids winter clothes that they need. Olivia is growing at a rapid pace and I can't keep up. Guess she's going to be built like me. Gosh Logan, I could wear 18mos. pants on him and yes, I do with some!! His winter coat that we've had forever, is..*gasp* 12mos.! Ok, I will say, it is made big, but really!!

All in all, that's about it that's been happening here. I did get the halloween costumes. Olivia, of course is a cat. It's the same every yr. we just have to buy a bigger size. Logan is going to be Superman, I had to find something that he didn't have to wear anything on his head!
