Weather

I had a million posts in my head as I was eating my lunch, lucky for the 2 maybe 3 of you that read this I have forgotten them. They were all kinda on the sad side.
So instead I will talk about the weather. It is most wonderful. Fall is in the air and I am sooo excited. Something I missed when I was not living here. O is excited too, talking about the red, purple, green, and blue leaves that are going to fall...and of course it will be her birthday and Halloween soon.
Which would bring us to what she is going to be for Halloween. She has so far wanted to be just about everything. It started with a bee than it was a kitty, pumpkin, bear, tiger, stick, butterfly...and so on. Butterfly has come up alot so we shall see.
So back to the weather, you can tell other people are excited too. Sweaters are getting pulled out, blankets are coming down, windows are opened.
Ahhh gotta love it!!
So maybe sad posts at a later date. Happy Fall!

I want my lovey....

Miss O has never had one particular item she has to have to sleep or go anywhere with her.
This is okay really cause we have never had to turn around because we did not have ___with us and we never had to go through a melt down for that reason either. (For other reasons yes)
That does not mean however that she does not want to sleep with things. And I do mean things...very random things. Last night for example it was candy corn foam shapes and a fairly large bat. I convinced her to let the bat sleep under her pillow but the candy corns were free game. Luckily I did not wake her up when I laughed very loudly when I went to check on her and she had a candy corn shape stuck to her forehead...
It does not stop there, she has taken Sonya Lee (Little People) a truck, a ziplock bag with a change of clothes in it, craft sticks, baby bottles, blocks, and other various toys. She goes to sleep clutching them to her chest but I can usually pry it away when she is good and asleep.
It is very funny really, I guess something does not have to be soft and cuddly to provide some kind of comfort for her. Whatever works....I do draw the line at food items!
