Daybook – End of Summer Early Fall

Living Seasonally:

Fall you beautiful you. Finally you have graced us but you could have been a bit more obvious about it instead of acting like Winter…then Summer…then Winter. I forgive you. Today the sun is shining, it’s cool and all I hear is wind and leaves crisp and falling. You remembered what you’re to be up to, thank you.

This is one of the seasons of life that start to get busy and you know it’s only going to get busier. I use a lot of my time making lists and planning ahead for what is to come. I wish I could do more of this but I’m not one to be accused of being overly organized. Alas, my brain is getting foggier with baby on board.

But with all the busy and the busy to come I still try to keep myself mindful to enjoy this particular season for what it is right now.

The Reveal

Gender Reveal parties are all the rage these days. While I was not going to have a party with 100 guests I did want to have a little fun with telling the babies about their new baby brother. As they’ve gotten older this is such exciting news for them. With Martha it was PINK Twizzlers and for Josephine I used PINK frosting inside cupcakes so I wanted to come up with another plan this time.

On the 24th we went in for a 21 week ultrasound. Thankfully everything was measuring as should be and baby was growing perfectly. He was quite wiggly but happily we were able to find out the one other thing we wanted to know.
