There. I said it! I hate Fall. I've actually come to the conclusion that I like Winter better than Fall. Here are my reasons:
- The fluctuating temperatures. At least in Winter, its cold. Its going to be cold all day. So you can just put on warm clothes in the morning and move on with your life. I'm over this heat in the morning AC in the afternoon crap.
- Its getting darker and darker.... At least in Winter it starts to get lighter slowly.
- In Fall the only thing there is to look forward to is the inevitable Winter... In Winter you get to look forward to Spring and Summer.. the two seasons that actually are worth celebrating!
Ok, now that I have that off my chest... moving on! ;)
I figured I need to do a blog entry. Gary was on my case about not doing one in so long. Karla checked in from Canada... The thing is, I've been busy doing nothing interesting or worth talking about. I knew that Fall and Lyla starting school was going to be a big transition for the three of us. I knew this going in. I wasn't counting on all the different obstacles that have been thrown our way in the last month and a half to make getting into any kind of routine nearly impossible! Its like every week we get a different roadblock. This week - Lyla has an ear infection.
So other than just desperately trying to get into some sort of routine... Fall has been very Lyla centric. She LOVES school and is doing very well! I would say the only downfall so far with school is not having a nap or any sort of down time. But she is slowly adjusting to that. She has also been loving Fall soccer. And she is a force to be reckoned with this season! I love watching her play!
And of course there has been football. Gary took Lyla to her first WVU game. He also got to go to a Steelers game with Gerald. A couple weeks ago he set up a tv in the backyard so we could watch football out there all weekend.
Other than that we have been trying to have pretty low key weekends so that we can recover from the week. Lyla is just exhausted by the time the weekend comes.
I haven't even taken many pictures, but here are a few:
I will do another post about the fun time Gary and Lyla had yesterday! And I will try to get back on track with my posts...
