One of those moments....

The morning routine at our home usually has us husseling about. We are on a strict time schedule that allows for little time to do other stuff other than get ready and out the door. The other morning, Trevor awoke with the older two. As we went through our routine he sat quietly in a chair still half sleeping. I was helping Cassidy with her hair when Trevor starts hollering, "Mommy, Mommy, Mommy". Rather than have a yelling match back and forth, I hurried out to see what he needed. When I got to him, he looked up at me with the cutest little face, grin from ear to ear, and said, "I like you Mommy". Now how could I resist that?! Sometimes it takes a two year old to make you stop and enjoy the moment.

What Fall is all about....




Trick or Treat.











Is it clean?















I want to go hunting too. I'll shoot a big one.











Head first.












Look mom!, I caught myself a horse.

Along with the cooler air, comes leaves to play in, pumpkins to carve, trick 0r treating, and unfortunately colds. Trevor caught a cold and was feeling a little frumpy on Halloween. His carefree smile and rambunctious personality were hidden as he stayed pretty quiet and somber. However, that didn't mean he was planning on missing out on any candy. Most of which he couldn't eat anyway. We have a few homes we go to that prepare a special treat bag just for him. All dairy free. Bless their hearts.

Homework with a little help.











Works for me. How about you?

Hip, Hip, Hooray!

Look at me! I'm wearing my big boy underwear.
But, I think they are funnier on my head.

Since returning from Disney my next project to focus on was potty training Trevor. Not near as fun as Disney, but in the end probably just, if not more, rewarding. Being able to say we are completely down with diapers feels awesome. Once he decided I wasn't giving in it was only a matter of days and this little task was mastered. I am happy to report that he is staying dry during nap time and at nights right along with it. Alleluia! Mission accomplished.
