Not Busy.

North Carolina is having brilliant weather this week.  The temps are in the 70s and low 80s, sunny skies and a breeze.  I love fall!

I wish I could say I have been too busy to write these days, but that's just not the case.  In fact I am not busy at all.  A little stressed from work, but not in a busy way.  Most days I have plenty of free time in my day.  I fill it with reading, soaking up time with Eleanor, sipping wine on our new patio furniture, and planning activities for my family and friends (like last night's BBQ for our fellowship group, which was a blast!)

Yesterday would have qualified as busy, but this is not the norm for us. I had the honor of babysitting my best friend's girls while she was at work.  I don't spend much time with them and yet they hug and love on me like I'm their best friend.  These girls are so cuddly and I spent the majority of my day wrapped up in their arms.  Eleanor is not a cuddly baby so these squeezes were extra special.

Mom's who do it with three, or who keep kids in their homes...props to you! This is no joke.  We had so much fun yesterday, but no way could I do it everyday!

Having big girls around taught Eleanor a thing or two...

Like how exciting stairs can be!  Now she knows they are there I am not sure there will be much peace in our home!

Such a fun and full day!  I just wanted to document all of it.  Fall is my very favorite time of the year.  I am looking forward to many small adventures in the next couple months.  I hope I remember to write them all down so I never forget!
