Feels Like Fall

Ahhh....don't you just love the crisp, nostalgic feeling of fall??  Long sleeve t-shirts, pumpkins, football games, bonfires, apple cider...there are just so many things to love about this season!  God sure knew what He was doing when He arranged time.... He knew that winter could be so tough that we would need a beautiful precusor to make it all worthwhile.  Although winter also has its charm, it can get desperately long (especially if you're still stuck up in Illinois!).  Well now I have my daughter's birth to add to the long list of sweet memories associated with fall.  Absolutely cannot believe that she is going to be one year old in a few weeks!!  Yet at the same time, I can't hardly imagine life before her!  Anyways, here are some pics from the chillly mornings here in TN.

Yay!! Time for a bath!

Porch Time

Sakora's favorite place is always outside. So, almost everyday after breakfast, we head to the porch for some playtime before the morning nap. She loves to bird watch, pick clumps of grass, and entertain herself with the decorative balls found our little table.

"Hmmmm, I wonder what this tastes like...."

Going in the mouth,....

"Yep, I think I'll eat this too..."

"What? A dog? Where??"

Where have all the birdies gone?

Baby going overboard!

"Can I go outside, please???"

Playing with Daddy's stethascope is so much fun!

Playtime with Dad...

She started to do this face when she hears the flash come up on the camera! :) Bracing herself for the bright light!

Here is the most recent photo of our house! Yup, still looks like it's under construction, (because it most definitely is!), but it sure has improved a lot since we first moved in! I will try to take some good pics of the master bedroom/bathroom/laundry room and post them soon so you can see the progress. Can't wait to show off the finished product!
