September

This post is dedicated to our busiest month of the year! We have just come to the realization that September is always going to be a bit crazy in our house, as it involves the start of a new routine...and with change comes challenges.
Neela has started preschool, so this means a new schedule for all of us, and a lot of driving! Poor Ashton is having to adjust to spending a lot of time in the car, without his morning nap. No nap = cranky kid. And I am learning how to organize myself to get all of us up, dressed, fed and out the door by 815am three days a week. Whew.
Our babysitter has returned this month, so I can dedicate more time to my job. Although the kids know her well, it is still an adjustment in routine having her back around the house. And September is the start of birthday season...lots of birthdays this Fall, starting with Ashton's 1st birthday on the 17th. Amazing how fast this past year flew by!
Finally, we have houseguests for a portion of this month, and at any time this could be challenging, but it is even more so because it is happening this month!!!
Oh October....we are waiting for you! =)
Here are a few pics of the kids taken over the past month:

Ashton is finally able to sit forward facing in the car. Too cute!


Our little man is so grown up already

Big smiles
