feels like i'm falling for fall...


does anyone else know that annoying song from Noggin? yeah...sorry if you do and i just put that earworm in your brain! i cant help myself...i am thinking fall these days...and hoping the weather is in agreement with my thoughts...and stays this chilly, but october is always so nutty in socal...it could be raining one day and beach weather the next...i think that is what makes it so eerie...i put the fall decorations up, the pumpkin candle is burning, the list of baked goods keeps growing (as do our middle regions). colors tend to repeat themselves with me - does that happen to you? i went through a big navy and yellow (i called it my swedish period) and seriously would only buy clothes or fabrics in those colors...and right now its pumpkin colors...i found a stash of orange-ish courderoy and knew it had to be made into something! my new sweater is pumpkin too, as is the yarn on my needles - which are begging to be picked up again...which happens when it starts to get cold - maybe because i am a fall baby...maybe because my skin gets sunburnt so easily i am always so happy when the weather cools - i have always loved this time of year...Halloween is probably my favorite holiday...costumes are already in the works...oh be excited...i think bryan and i will win this year...bryson goes back and forth between wanting to be a ghost, a cowboy, a ghostbuster - i will try to let him be any of these...i am making outfits for all three (like last year's pirate and ghost costumes) because i know how hard it is to make up ones mind when it comes to costumes :) speaking of Bryson...my model is growing...i cant fit him into 2T anymore - he seems to have shot up overnight and come to find out none of his pants are the right length!

this is true of the Bod-ster too...i have been absolutely refusing to put him in 18 month clothes...even though he is indeed 18 month size...it is silly but its breaking my heart a little...he is on the last snap of his medium fuzzi bunz...the same fuzzi bunz that bryson wore until he was 20 months and needed a large...so yesterday i opened up the box of 18 month clothes i saved from bryson...donated over half of it (why did i save clothes i hated the first time?)

these days it seems like i am constantly on bryson's case for how he "plays" with Bodie. i probably say, "leave him alone" about 1543 times per day. what is sad is that i think he just doesn't know how to interact with him right now - he wants to wrestle cause that is how he and daddy play, but poor Bodie always loses...right now that is...you just wait brother! i have so many pictures like this...

apologies for the most random of all blog posts. i am in the office today...going back to this between phone calls and mailings...procrastination is an amazing thing...

I meant to tell you earlier how much I liked your sweater... I didn't know it was new, that makes it even better :)

I also want to decorate... but can't decide if it is worth it to get out the decorations out and then pack them up again in a 2 weeks... so conflicted!
