Autumn, Birthday and Camera Happy Andrew











We LOVE the season of autumn. The beautiful, vibrantly colored leaves, the cool crispness in the air, the smell of hot apple cider, wearing warm, snuggly sweaters. Oh, it is so wonderful! Even when I got pretty homesick for a while in Minnesota, as soon as Autumn came, I perked right up and couldn't stop smiling. We took a drive through the canyon the other day and enjoyed the red, orange and yellow leaves on the trees in the mountains. Our camera is kind of lame and I do not have a photoshop program so unfortunatly we were not able to catch the actual vibrancy of the colors but here are pictures of some of what we enjoyed.

I also had a Birthday! Yay! It was on a Sunday and it was very nice and relaxing. My mom made me a crazy large, rich cake. It had chocolate, cream cheese and reeses cups.

I only have 4 weeks left until the due date. I am so anxious and excited to nest. I hope I can get at least somewhat organized before the baby comes! We are planning on moving into our own place in two weeks! :)

Andrew took another prego picture of me today. He also took some pictures of me while I was crocheting. He called it 'capturing a classic Kim photo' :). He's a cutie. I love to crochet! I have made a couple of little beanies for the baby to keep her warm. I have also been crocheting flowers to put on the beanies. The picture of the beanie with the flower still needs a button in the middle but yeah. I think once I attach the button the little hat will be so cute! I am excited!

This little baby girl is already so much fun. She wiggles around so much! It is so fun to feel and watch! We are excited for her to come. I just really, really, really hope to be able to nest a little bit before hand so i can get things a little more prepared and organized for her. :)

Happy Fall!

Those pictures are gorgeous, even with no photo-shopping. And those hats are ADORABLE! If I was just a little more tacky, I'd invite myself right over and have you teach me :). I am so excited for you and Andrew and your little girl on the way. Enjoy the next 4 relaxing weeks before she comes! I just made my blog private, so if you'd like an invite, e-mail me at starleedawn@gmail.com (I didn't have your e-mail address). Take care!

Loved the autumn pictures (which is the season I miss the most) and Kim, you look so great and ready. The beanies are cute, do you make any for big people?

Kim! You learned how to make hats! Yay! I'm sad that I didn't get to teach you but they look awesome! I need to learn how you do flowers. Did you cut your hair? It looks very cute! I love your hair short! Your belly is so cute! I love it! I just luff my Kim!

You look absolutely gorgeous Kim and we are SO EXCITED for our little niece to arrive in the next few weeks. We are also excited for your beautiful new house and to help you move in. If you really want to nest and not have her come early- TAKE IT EASY. Just take little baby steps in your house, one box here, one box there. I am going to be checking on you and making sure you are not working too hard.(= And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the flower beanie hats. I think I am going to have to take lessons from you so Miss Makaylee can have one too. We love you guys. See you soon!
