Lately

• We've been sleeping with our windows open. Life is cozy in the Fall, and I'm in heaven.
• Lewie is mobile. He scoots, wiggles, rolls, army crawls, and even CRAWLS to whatever is causing the twinkle in his big brown eye. --i'm tired.
• It's 8:20 and I can hear Owen singing in his bed. I didn't hear my alarm and stood up my running buddy. I hate being flaky, but I really love sleep-in-regroup-recover from the big weekend Mondays!
• Owen has had his heart set on being a blue monster for Halloween. He came up with the idea all on his own and would not be swayed by any of my suggestions no matter how cool I made them sound. So I searched and searched for the perfect, fuzzy, blue monster costume that wouldn't break the bank (not an easy task). The day after I found just the one, our friend said to Owen "are you going to be Lightning McQueen for Halloween?" Now he is positive that he is. You can trust he'll be wearing that monster costume.
• I'm loving everything pumpkin. I think I could eat 6 dozen pumpkin cookies in a day.
