This morning sent us a chill with the weather. It's about time we are starting to have a start to "fall weather" for Texas. It has been getting cooler and cooler at night and especially in the morning. I have to go shopping for warmer clothing for Jordon. I didn't think it would get too cold, but around midnight Jordon was crying a little, he fell back asleep but i think he was doing it because his poor little feet were a little cold. Had to put some socks on him this morning. So today we are going to our CCA thrift store to get some 6-9 month and 9-12 month gowns for him. But i am so excited that it is getting to be wonderful weather outside. Yesterday i worked outside for a couple of hours in the morning during Jordon's nap to weed the front and it was so nice to not have to work up a sweat in the morning. We're going to plant some flowers up front to beautify our landscape and then we're going to attempt to do a fall garden, but we'll see if it's too late or not. Jordon is now on a better routine kindof, thanks to Laura's Happy Sleep Habits Happy Child Book, thank you thank you!. We're still trying to work on it, but he's doing much better. Ever since Sunday we've been trying to do it better. Now he wakes up at 6 AM and then takes a long 2 hour nap from 7-9, has another breakfast with a little rice cereal, down for a shorter nap at 10:45 or so, sleeps till 12 or so and has lunch, and then i put him down for his long afternoon nap around 2 and he sleeps till 3:30. And then i give him a bath at 5, try to feed him a little at 5:30 before he goes to bed a little until 6:30 or so. And then he has a couple extra feedings til he's down at 9. But things are working out pretty good. He actually had 2 TB rice cereal last night, and he kept it down pretty good, had a little spitup but not bad. I think he's almost read to move on to other things but i'll give it another week.
Chris has been working hard trying to finish up the last touches on the bathrooms. He got the guest bathroom tub tile regrouted so that is looking really good. And then we're going to reporcelain the tub a little in some spots that need it. And later we'll be putting up shower curtains and repainting the room. The master bathroom just needs a few more touchups and that will be done. We're also going to try to paint the hallway, living room, kitchen, and den this fall. So we'll send pictures when that is done. I've been trying to get around to it, but it hasn't happened yet especially with trying to figure out the time to do it with a baby. But he's getting older now. He's going to be a pumpkin this year for halloween. So we'll send pictures of that too.
We'll be sending more posts later! Take Care!

I love the fall too! That's so great that Jordan has acclimated to such a great schedule. Hopefully you can get some rest too.
