September is probably my favorite month in Oregon (other states may have different preferences :). And so far it's not letting us down. Still warm, still sunny, but with a touch of routine and rhythm in the mix--like a mini New Years. And I love fall, so with that around the corner it's lovely to enjoy the end of summer.
I got to chase Eli at the park while these two watched.
Hanging out on Eli's bed
Eli loves stacking random, misplaced bricks at this little community garden near our park. He says " fell down" every time the tower is knocked. One of his many phrases we are now hearing regularly!
We pulled out the next size up in gardening boots (have been gleaning kid boots for some time! What size are you? Probably have it) for digging and general mud play (his favorite)(can we say midday bath time).
Moved the burley inside for pajama-clad morning rides with daddy who is running a few times a week. Henri can join when he's a bit older and doesn't mind getting squished next to big brother (closer to one year is recommended for these things). Also doubles as comfortable "rest nook" for Eli, something we're noticing he really needs/wants but usually is mid-meltdown before we all realize he just needs some milk and Richard Scarry's "cars and trucks and things that go", for example.
More of September photos to come!
