Welcome Fall!

Fall is definately amongst us now! The trees down the street to our house are all changing and every day Ava screams at the top of her lungs that the trees aren't green anymore but are yellow or red or orange. It's cute but seriously loud. I'm glad it's exciting for her and more glad that we live someplace where she can experience that shift in the year. We took a hike on our favorite trail this weekend hoping to see lots of colors but we were a little early yet. Instead we saw lots and lots of monarch caterpillars which were just as cool in their own right! Mason had a momentous occasion too. He gets to ride forward now! I know it's a month early and I'm usually decently "safety first" but the boy's knees were in his ears and he was whining about it. We figured since his weight was ok and he's strong like ox we'd let him be comfy.

Poor Andy camelbacking these two.
Furry trees!

Snack time!

Coop really hated this hike for some reason.

A&J enjoyed the hike though.

Ava caught a caterpillar...and then prompty accidentally stepped on it. Oops!

The perfect fall leaf!

Passed out cold!

Before the movies...we were really excited to see a movie.

Pirate?

Super happy to be face forward....lovin' the buck toothed smile!

OK so at first he was slightly freaked out by it.
