Keeping busy while missing Daddy...


It's almost Halloween, I can't believe it! The days seem to just be flying by so quickly, and the holidays are approaching! It's hard to believe that we haven't gotten to see Chris since the beginning of September, and it's probably a good thing we are so busy, it makes it a tiny bit easier (but not by much, we miss him terribly!) Rylie will ask me at least twice a day to "See Dada?" I have to explain that he's taking care of us, working hard on the Choo-Choo train! :) We are hoping come November, we will be able to head down and visit. It will be nice to see some cooler weather, as we are still pretty hot here right now! So, here's what we've been busy doing lately...

Hanging out at home, just the two of us...

Helping Nana water her plants (always a favorite of Rylie's, anything messy is good!)...

Playing in the plants at one of our coffee meetups with other mommas & kids
(they have been great, I'm so happy to have found such an awesome group of moms!)...

Spending time helping to babysit this little munchkin...

And even holding him for a couple minutes (melt my heart!)...

Visiting old friends in Las Cruces, New Mexico
(and seeing my great friend Kim getting married!)....


Getting a little more brave by the day...

Hitting up the pumpkin patch on a (HOT!) Fall day...


Enjoying the occasional popsicle (ok, like everyday but who's counting?)...

Riding a pony all by herself, GO Rylie!!! :)


And of course, playing outside... we miss you Chris, we love you!
