Our Fun Fall Day, Created by Emma Review & GIVEAWAY!
My Babies: Brooklyn, Lucy & Lofton.
It was such a beautiful day yesterday...the kind of day that makes me love fall! Warm, but cool at the same time...sun shining...leaves on the ground...crisp clean air. So we decided to go outside and play in the leaves!
It was Lucy's first experience with the leaves, so of course she had to try them! She is at the stage where EVERYTHING goes in her mouth, including freshly peed on toilet paper from the bowl your 3 year old leaves open because she "likes to play in the water." Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh good times...
Such a great big sister...so proud & helpful!
I am pretty sure this is one of the cutest pictures ever...little moccasins, pink elephant on her little booty, adorable pink hat.
Speaking of those amazingly cute hats, a bloggy friend, Emma made them & sent them to me!! CAN YOU SAY WAY TOO CUTE?! Everyone who sees them does! :)
