What a beautiful time of year

Autumn is my most favorite time of year to live in Washington. The leaves are changing and it starts to get cold enough that I have a good excuse to stay inside with a cup of Hot Chocolate and read a book. It's also cold enough for sweaters to cover up the consequences of so many cups of Hot Chocolate. :) Today the girls and I took a walk before the weather turned wet and windy.
Claire slept through the whole walk. she missed some beautiful fall colors.


Violet and Claire took their first ride on our double stroller, they loved it. I like having V on that bench facing me so we can talk during our walk.


Claire wore her new shoes, jeans and coat from her Aunt Diana. She was so toasty warm and looked really cute too.
V and C like to cuddle. Well C doesn't have much choice in the matter.

Claire's head got stuck in her T shirt and this is the face she made to tell us what she thought about that. Claire is such a good baby, she loves to snuggle during the day but will sleep at night in her own bed (thank heavens). she is starting to let us go to sleep earlier and staying asleep longer so Peter and I are beginning to emerge from the newborn haze!! Yay!

I MISS THE fALL!! I'm jealous b/c Fall is my favorite season too. It really doesn't exist here. Thanks for the reminder of the pretty colors.

Yes, you guys live in a great area for fall colors. I love the pictures of Peter mimmicing Claire. In one of them he looks like Johny Dep (spelling) from "I am Sam". What cute little girls you have. I wish I would have bought the same double stroller you have when I had Jackson, but I was not being smart.

This is a beautiful fall isn't it? It's been so cold I have had to force my Seth out the door. haha. I almost got a sit and stand stroller! It looks really good and functional. We should go on walks together!
