I'm glad that fall is finally here because it's my favorite time of the year. With Halloween and Thanksgiving as well as the anticipation of Christmas right around the corner, what's not to like? Now if we can just get the cooler weather that is supposed to come with fall...

Mara decided to design her own pumpkin that she got at the pumpkin patch yesterday. She took a Sharpie and gave her pumpkin a face and hair.

Mara really likes pickles. She recently discovered that she likes to eat her hot dogs with dill pickle relish on them. She even asks for a little relish on the side that she'll either eat with a spoon or on chips.

Mara's been having issues at school this week, so we've been making her write letters to her teacher apologizing for what she did wrong. I think it's helping her to stop and think about what she's doing.

We made baked potato soup tonight (see recipe here), and Jack got a taste of it. He seemed to like it, but he especially loved the slice of Italian bread that we gave him. I figured he would just gum it a little, so I was surprised to see he kept biting off pieces.

My dad bought Jack an outfit, and that's what he wore to school today. I had John take pictures before they left since Jack hasn't had much success in keeping his clothes clean throughout the school day. He also has figured out how to give zeberts. Tonight, he was giving John kisses, and then he would blow a raspberry against John's cheek. (Excuse the naked baby. His clothes got soaked from a glass of water and we didn't have a change of clothes for him.)

Mara went to a birthday party today for one of her friends from her old daycare. It was nice to see old friends and for them to get to spend some time together. It's amazing how much Mara loves those inflatable jump houses now when she wouldn't go near one of them when we first started going to birthday parties at them.
