See ya summer...HELLO fall!!!

It's been a crazy and kind of awful summer and I'm so glad to see it go.  My aunt became very ill (and very unexpectedly) and we almost lost her back in July.  The greatest birthday present I could have ever received was NOT having to plan her funeral.  (we got the call 2 days before my birthday that she wouldn't make it through the day.  It was the worst call I've ever received)  The Lord has truly had His hand on her and she's improving little by little each day.  SO thankful she's still here and praying for her during this long and difficult recovery process.

The pregnancy nausea pretty much did me in all summer...even now at 25 weeks I'm still dealing with it, although thankfully it's much better.  Then the heat...that wonderful heat we've all been putting up with has been terrible.  Being severely nauseous + 100* temps = very very sick me.  Yall...I used to want nothing more than to live on the beach.  This summer killed that dream.  So with all that going on...goodbye and good riddance summer!

Last Friday I put up the fall decorations.  It may be a little early, but I'm excited to welcome fall!  I'm excited about football (ROLL TIDE!!!), cooler weather, the holidays, school for the girls, the smells and colors of autumn and of course...getting closer and closer to meeting our newest baby girl!

The girls start Mother's Day Out tomorrow.  Kenley should have started Tuesday but power outages canceled school.  I can't believe this is her last year of MDO and certainly can't believe my little baby Taylor starts her first year!!  Thankfully tomorrow morning will be busy so I won't have time to cry!

My mom and I have slowly started fall shopping...and next week I'll hit up my BIG consignment sale and hopefully score some good fall/winter wardrobes for the girls.  All 3 of them.  Wow it still hits me that we're about to have 3 girls. 

And because any post is more fun with pictures, here's a sweet picture of the girls' new shoes!  Even Jelly Bean got a pair!!  I love this picture!!
