I think I've mentioned before how much I love fall. The leaves are beautiful, even when I have to clean them off my driveway and out of my house.
Then there's the annual pre-Halloween snow. It's great how one day you barely need a jacket and the next you need all your winter gear.
I've really enjoyed sharing some of my favorite things outside with Dylan this year. He really loved the boat and water in the summer, now he's loving the "no".
My plan is to take him down the tow-rope hill before the end of the year and I get too big. Just like this summer; he doesn't have to learn any skills, he just has to think it's fun.
It really bothered him to have the snow on his boots. He kept sitting down to clean them off. 
Dylan thinks that these pillows are a requirement for going to bed. We have to have them to kneel on to pray.
This is his room "re-decorated" for those who are interested. There are no window coverings or anything on the walls. What's the point? My sewing machine is in storage, I really wanted to do a cowboy room, but he loves cars. This works.
On a side note, I've been thinking lately about how the time with just the two of us is coming to a close. He's the guy I hang out with, eat with, talk to. In a few more months, he's not going to be the center of my world anymore and it makes me sad. Especially on days like today, when he's been so funny copying everything.
He's such a big, independent boy who likes to walk around the zoo like he doesn't need me.
And help Dad clean the kitchen. Have you ever seen such an effective sweeping technique?
I love a guy in boots, jeans, and a hat. Especially, when their bums are as cute as his.

Oddly enough, baby #1 will always be the center of your world, the logistics just change up a bit when #2 comes along. Morgan is still my favorite pal to hang out with and we have all sorts of fun when the girls are sleeping. He is so darling!
I love love love his bedding!!! And his little bed!
I remember crying everyday the week before Quincy came. I just loved hanging out me and mason. I was actually sorta sad to think of someone coming in and changing things up. Now we hang out, just the three of us, during the day. Quincy and I feel incomplete when mase has to go to preschool. It wi be different, but great all the same. I am excited for you!
funny, I thought it was just me who cried right before my #2 was born. I was over-due so they planned to start me and so we dropped W off the night before and I couldn't stop holding him and I sobbed the whole way home...and then when my parents brought him to the hospital I burst into tears again because I was so worried that he wouldn't feel liket the center of my universe anymore. What Ruth said is so true though, anytime it's just me and E she'll ask me over and over where W is and vice versa
the best part will be seeing what a great big brother Dylan is going to be!!
As much as I loved you and thought you were the cutest, smartest little kid in the world, I was VERY excited to have another baby. There is more than enough space in your world and in your heart for a new little kid. (I agree that the first child is special and spoiled beyond belief.)
These are cute pictures of Dylan. He kinda rocks my world as well. He'll have soooo much fun with a little brother or sister. Remember how close you and Alayna were forever and still are?
Ahh, you guys are so cute! There is plenty of love to go around when #2 #3 #4 come knocking at your door. Yes, I'm telling you you're having 4 kids. Like I know. ANyway, you are a cute mom for doing all those fun things with Dylan. I want to come tubing too!!
Man he is so cute! I love that he has his hand on his holster with this "I dare you to do it" look. I can't wait to see him in two weeks!!!!!
Dylan's a total stud. You'll get over it when you have your next.
