I love the Fall. I wish it would hurry up and get here...the cool weather (still 85 degrees today) the beautiful leaves changing color (this year pretty much just brown) the new clothes and toasty cozy sweaters (Reina can't wait to wear her new wardrobe) the crisp evenings enjoyed by the fire with apple cider (more like TV with football...) We have had a few teaser days of cooler weather. We've enjoyed some football games, even if not all our teams have won. We had classic Autumn experiences like craft fairs that were incredibly overrated (2 hours to drive 10 miles to get there and spent 30 minutes and left, sucked.) We've enjoyed having friends stay and visit and have eaten lots of Autumny squash.
Reina has become a crawling expert, she positively zooms around the house. No sooner do I turn my back and poof, she's moved on to new and exciting dangers. Everyday I find another potentially perilous item or location in the house. She also pulls up on furniture like a pro, cruises along it and gets herself across the room by grabbing on to the next closest chair. She sometimes holds on with only one hand and often reaches out to us to hold both of her hands so she can walk. She has become proficient at saying "dada" and has moved on to "baba" and "nana" (Mom loves that one) and last night Bill's trying to convince me she said "mama" finally. I'm still reserving judgment...
what? I wasn't about to climb up on this chair!
Go Bucks! Reina helping Uncle Matt move on a rainy day last week.
If the crib is baby jail, the pack 'n' play is a half-way house part of the kitchen work release program. As her speed increases, so does her time in here while I'm cooking!
WHO DEY! Reina and her first pumpkins on the front porch.

I can't believe how big and cute she is! Hopefully Brian and I will get to see her when we are in town this November.
