Autumn is here! Right?

Quick side note: Audrey developed a big interest in the potty this month. Not sure when she'll officialy be "potty trained" but we've had lots of successful potty experiences - so proud of her! We're just following her lead. If we had our choice we wouldn't have brought out the potty until 2011... but if she wants to do it now I guess that's cool with us.

It has been crazy warm here these past couple of weeks... 70 degrees & sunny! The funny part is that I sort of enjoy Autumn's crisper temps which we haven't gotten much of... but I can't complain.

Some of the fun stuff we've enjoyed: pumpkin picking, daytrip to Door County, apple orchard field trip with school & lots of playing outside in the neighborhood!

Welcome Lyla!

We recently made a roadtrip to Kansas City to visit Colleen, Greg, Greyson & new baby Lyla!

Sadly, Ian got really sick so he & daddy had to stay home. On the bright side, Ian gets to FLY there with mommy next week... stay tuned for that post!

Here she is & she is just gorgeous :)

Audrey also got to play with her adorable cousin Jonah - he is the happiest baby you'll ever meet!

and here's handsome big brother Jameson... Mr. Smiley Pants

Audrey filled in for Ian by playing with cutie pie Greyson. They were a blast to watch... being sweet...

playing...

and being SILLY!

Audrey had some fun tubbies with her cousins. She & Jonah have the same size heads & similar hair... so inspite of the year age difference they sort of looked like twins.

Audrey's gonna pose while Greyson has a snack...

A brief, rare gathering of the clan. So happy Audrey got to meet Lyla & play with her aunts, uncles & cousins. Same time next year?
