Fun Fall Firsts

The day after Hadley was born, it rained for a month. Seriously, an ENTIRE month. After that came summer. We have been cooped up indoors for far too long! But now the weather is FINALLY beginning to be a little more pleasant around here! I'm no longer breaking  a sweat carrying Hadley's carseat 10 feet from the garage to the house. Yay! Time for some fall weather fun! 

On Monday, Lissie and I took Hadley to the Dallas Arboretum's "Autumn at the Arboretum" exhibit to visit the pumpkins - all 75,000 of them! I know, I know... we've already done one pumpkin photo shoot this season, but I mean really... is there a such thing as having too many baby/pumpkin pictures? I think not. 

​Hadley did not disappoint! I'm convinced that she is the most photogenic baby alive!

Yes, we had a little wardrobe change halfway through... Gotta get pictures in all those cute pumpkin outfits while we still can! :) The Arboretum was a lot of fun, and I will definitely try to make this an annual activity! 

Then today I decided we'd waited long enough to take our girl to the park! She's not quite sitting up on her own yet, but can sit up with support. Time to test out the swings! 

As you can see this was a huge success! She laughed until she gave herself the hiccups! :) YAY! I'm so glad we can start adding trips to the park into our weekly routine. 

And lastly, we tried carrots for the first time today... ​

Another win! Loving experiencing all of these firsts with Hadley! Can't wait for more fun times to come... and we haven't even hit the holiday season yet! :) :) :)
