This past week I have really gotten a taste of fall: pumpkin cookies, pumpkin painting, pumpkin carving party, COLD weather and butternut squash bisque (somehow I managed to find the best recipe in the world and it was so, so good). After not having Jason home at his normal time for the third night in a row, I let Clara dress up in her costume, we made sucker ghosts and then I laughed at her running around in her underwear. It kept me from being mean mom and instead I tried to embrace Clara's imagination. After all, she's not always going to take her train to grandma's house and never leave our house.

You're a great mom!
Hey, are you willing to share your soup recipe? I've always wanted to try a squashy soup. :D
What a cozy post! I also like the most delicious apples that my neighbor gives me around fall.
Sugar cookie party?
I'll bring the sprinkles.
I'm sure Claire loved spending some quality time w/ her Mommy.
I love this time of year also. Happy Halloween!
is she dressing up on saturday? can i come see her?
You're cool. I'm lame. I become the mad mom. I'll try being like you.
we have just GOT to get our girls together. they'd have a blast, i know it! (i think we'd have a pretty good time, too)
the top reason i'm excited about this year's holiday season is that at the end of it all, i won't be pregnant anymore!!! wouldn't that top your list?
I love this time of the year too. All my favorite holidays, my anniversary, and Melanie's birthday all tied in! I think you are a great mom. I think those littles one need to be able to use their imaginations. Now... if she were 16 running around the house in her underwear... well, that would be different. :o)
You have such a good attitude about things. I need to try to be more easy going when life is busy, husbands are late, etc etc.
