Honestly, I sort of hoped that I might be too busy to write this post. You know... having a baby and all. Yet... here I am. =) That's okay. Two weeks tops and the new little guy will likely get to be included in a Friday Favorites post.
This week we finally got a few days (okay, about a day and maybe a half) of cooler "fall" weather. Fall in Florida is a bit different than it is in most other places, but I wouldn't change it for anything. I love our fall weather. Saturday it started to cool down some so we headed out to Lake Eustis to walk along the lake and then had dinner at The Crazy Gator. We figured we would enjoy our time as a family of three a bit since there are not many more sure days between now and when we become a family of four.

After church (and lunch and a nap) we went to the park for a bit. We haven't been to the park in months with how hot it has been and Kenzie was definitely happy to be back. It seems like everyone that lives within 10 miles of us might have had the same idea though and it was PACKED. Unfortunately, that meant that it was a bit too much for Kenzie. She did okay, but she wouldn't play around some of the older (and rougher) kids that were on the younger kid play area. Why they weren't on the one for their size... I have no idea, but they weren't and Kenzie was a little nervous around them because they were playing so rough. She still freaked when we left though and we had to drag her away promising to come back later in the week. Which we actually did today. Daddy is at work but it was fairly cool this morning so her and I had a park morning. Again, I had to drag her away. There was only one or two other children there today though and she did much better. She let me put her in the swing. For some reason that freaked her out on Sunday, but was okay today. I can't wait to have more park days as the fall season gets more on track.
... I feel like it's worth mentioning that she finally let me put her hair up (and out of her eyes) as long as I called them "double palm trees" and not "piggie tails". Seriously. This kid kills me.
Our week hasn't been super eventful. We are mostly just hanging around wondering when Will is going to decide to make his debut. Saturday I managed to get in a pedicure and we spent the afternoon watching football. There's another great thing about fall. It finally feels like football season. This weekend we will be doing more of the same...
Were you able to get out an enjoy fall this past week? Whatever that means for you. Parks, football, maybe some jeans instead of shorts all day long? Make memories. =)

Kenzie and Daddy on the boardwalk at Lake Eustis before dinner. I love that we finally got her to keep her sunglasses on for more than 2.2 seconds. |
Sunday was our actual cool day. When we got up and got dressed for church it was downright chilly. That means high 50's, low 60's for you non-Floridian people. =) So, Kenzie kept telling us she was cold and we dressed her in a sweater and her skinny jeans. I was super excited to get to put this outfit on her for the morning. I don't know why. Just was.
