Is it Fall, Yall?

WOW! I can't believe it is September, I'm back to work, Paylie Poo has started daycare, Emrie is trying to plan her 4th birthday party, we need to find the girls Halloween costumes, Christmas is 3 1/2 months away, and I'm ready for FALL!
I've got my house, inside and out decorated. Drew says I'm crazy, it's only the beginning of September. But with kids you have to be on top of these types of things. Emrie just loved helping me decorate. It really put her in the mood for Halloween. She is ready to go to the pumpkin patch an buy her and Paylie's outfit. She told me that she will help Paylie go trick-or-treating this year! She's excited!

yep, even the kitchen needs to be decorated :)


We had a great Labor Day weekend. We went to Bay City and spend Monday at the beach. It was beautiful! The water was actually clear! No seaweed! Drew "tried" to fish and Emrie played in the sand. Why is it you can give a kid a bucket and a shovel and they are so happy for hours? :)

she was Hannah Montana!
Paylie started daycare today :( I was so sick to my stomach and worried. I really like the daycare that the girls are at, it's just hard to take a very needy baby to a daycare! She was so sweet though, I put her in her swing and left (it took me 30 min to get her all settled in) as I go to work and work my butt off I hope and pray my baby girls will appreciate that I had to work when they were young to help out. Hopefully one day I can stay home with them, even if they are in high school, at least I'll be here when they get home :)
Its hard..... real hard to work and have kids. I send them off at 7:30 in the morning, I pick them up about 4:30 and go home, cook dinner, clean house, do chores, sometimes I feel like I don't have enough time to love on them. I want my babies to know how much we love them and I hope they understand. I think it's hard on me too, is because my mom took my sister and I to daycare every day, early in the morning and picked us up in the evening. I always said I never wanted to do that to my kids....
BUT, Emrie loves school, she has learned so much and getting ready for preschool is fun for her.

Paylie Poo-can you believe she is already almost 3 months old!?!?!
So that is our life in a nutshell as of now, we are just busy, busy! I can't wait for the cool weather and enjoy some time outside in the evening (even though the time is about to change :) )

I love that you have your decorations out already. I keep bugging Billy to get the box out of the attic so I can do the same! :)

I hope everything works out with daycare. I'm sure the girls know you love them. (I can only imagine how hard it is though.)

Your decorations look awesome; your house looks really nice too! I don't think I will be doing any decorations this fall. I will be lucky if I get the nursery decorated before the baby!!
