fall is everywhere!

 i try to get the kids out at least once a day, esp in the mornings. i like to get the wiggles out.  yesterday was really nice, for fall that is. and after the chore of finding boots, hats, jackets, mitts and scarves we set out for a brisk walk.  i love how quiet the community is in the morning, i am the only sahm in the area. so the place is ours

 the bush was too dense, so i stayed back with jo and the older two set off to find things

 they played in a mini lake. found some rocks to throw and laughed together

 they kept coming back to show me the stuff they discovered. like ice, then we threw it on the ground and jumped on it

 ellie is like jo, she likes to touch everything. her mitts were off because she wanted to touch all the flowers, trees, bush and bark

 she was forever crunched down studying something that caught her interest.  then she would pick it up

 with her teeny, cold hands

 and show me the delight she found. so fun to watch

 jo jo literally just sat and watched. she never said a word just smiled and watched

 nate wanted to push jo

 and ellie wanted to hold my hand. these are the moments, i am so grateful to god

such a fun morning out and long naps followed!!!!
