October Snapshots

All of a sudden, it's fall.

 To get in the spirit, we did some baking & some shopping.

 We made some banana muffins. Pumpkin muffins are more fall-ish. But we already tried those and they turned out, kind of, not so great. 

These were super easy. All we needed were regular baking ingredients (Flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, eggs) + ripe bananas.

 Jack helped.

I'm always the last parent to remember fall gear. All the other kids are arriving to school with rain jackets and hats, and my little ones are still in flip flops. So I jetted off to Old Navy the other night and grabbed some coats, mittens, hats, boots, and an umbrella.  Just my luck, they didn't have Jack's size so his coat is too big and I couldn't find one for Hope (but I did find like eight adorable pairs of baby boots, and that's like winning the jackpot right there).

 

And I think the best fall weather purchase so far was...cowboy boots from Goodwill. Five dollars! (Half off from $10). Finding good boots is soooooo difficult, so to find super cheap ones that are cute too? My toes are happy:
