Aunt Annie, This One's For You

Since I know how much my sweet sister loves her baby, this post is for her. I thought this was one of the cutest pics of Maggie that you left on my camera this weekend.

Lovin' Those Sweet Hugs

My heart hurts a bit every time my little fella' grows out of an outfit or becomes a little more independent. I am grateful beyond words for these things as well, but what mother doesn't want to hold onto her baby just a little longer. The first moment I laid eyes on him is forever etched into my memory. Like most moms, I thought he was the most beautiful and perfect little critter I'd ever seen. I can't believe how much he's grown since then.
All that being said, there are perks to this growing up thing. There's nothing in the world like hugging your newborn baby but when he starts to hug you back...well, now, there's something to write home about.

Feeding Time

Levi has an awful cold, so for the next couple of days, I'll probably just post pictures from our weekend. Aunt Annie came up for a visit. We had a fabulous time relaxing, and concocting crazy schemes, oh, yeah, and taking loads of pictures. These are some of the photos from a walk to the barn for feeding time. Down here, Autumn color can be a bit spotty. We don't get the crazy fabulous array of colors that the east coast is blessed with. However, we do get a little, and I'm pretty partial to it.

The weekend weather was stunning.
