More Boo at the Zoo






Heres more pics from last night at Boo at the Zoo

Autumn






Autumn in Ohio is the most beautiful time of year, we spent the day yesterday hiking in the woods and looking for unique leaves to make a collage for the kids. I love the smells of fall and walking through the woods is so peaceful, not to mention the crisp cool air, unfortunately this also means winter is not far behind. I hear the Farmers Almanac is predicting a doozy this year to.
Last night we all went to an annual event here called Boo at the Zoo, It ws a good time had by all and Lilly and Abel looked really cute as Bumble Bees this year.

need to update





Wow to say its a busy household is an understatement. Frank and I had to laugh tonight as we are frantically trying to clean up after dinner, help 1 with homework, the other is freaking out calling classmates cause she forgot hers, and the 2 toddlers screaming out because they both want to ride on the red firetruck. i just looked at Frank and said "can't you work any faster" We both just bust out laughing as well. We so look forward to those few minutes before sleep where we can have a conversation about our day. Maybe soon we can hire a sitter and have a meal out alone. :) Once Abel isn't so scared of abandonment that is. He is doing much better on that front tooo. he went to his gymnastics class and fully participated and had fun without me having to carry him on my hip through the class that is. He is outside right now in the backyard with his 2 sisters jumpping on the trampoline, but I have to get going now to get the older ones to ice skating lessons. Whew. I'm tired. But loving it.
