Totally Fall

Our fall peaked this week and most of the leaves have fallen. It was GLORIOUS over last weekend and the first of this week, though! I am glad to live in a city with so many trees! [warning: this post is a little Niles-heavy--sorry other kids]. Also, we got our hughchair back from friends that borrowed it, so here is Niles giving it his first test drive...
He's a lot happier with it now than when we took these pictures because now he's conditioned to know that highchair=FOOD and that boy loves his rice cereal and mashed bananas!


He's rolling over and getting around on the floor better. He, like James did, tends to loathe floor time or "tummy time" and rather than strengthening his muscles and learning to move around, he has heretofore spent floor time screaming at me in anger to pick him up. But he's coming around and getting stronger.

Last week the kids had a Fall Break from school (thur & Fri off) so on Friday, Gram and I took them to the Museum of the Rockies and out to lunch at Famous Dave's and they loved it!

James went fishing in the Yellowstone Discovery room


The girls made Yellowstone bear puppets


This found-art-fox watched curiously.

Gram took a breather with Niles. It was a FUN day!


We love having Great-Gram with us--Niles gets a lot of snuggles!




We love sink baths after dinner!




nice & clean!

Here are some amazing fall shots taken Monday around town, just blocks from my house...
