I think fall is my favorite time of year. The leaves are changing and the weather starts cooling off. Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas means tons of family time. It's exciting to see Brixton start to do all the things I love doing in the fall.
We took a tiny road trip up to Ames to visit Aubrey and to of course get some Great Plains pizza. We had some lunch and then Aubrey gave us a tour of her new apartment before we left. Brixton got to meet Gizmo. They are old friends from when Aubrey used to watch Brixton for me so it was nice for them to rekindle their friendship! He also got a new balloon and met her roommate's rabbit. Great day in Ames!
Brixton has also fallen into another one of my old habits. When I was younger, I had a "car". It was an old cardboard box that I piled all my favorite toys and my blanket in so I could go bub-bye. I was getting ready to put this box from his diapers in the recycle bin when Brixton started putting his stuff in it and pushing it around. I just couldn't take it from him after that. It just took me back to pictures my mom took of me when I was a little girl. One day he'll grow out of it, but until then I'll let him keep "driving on".
Halloween is one of my favorite holidays of the year. Getting to dress up in a fun costume and of course FREE CANDY. I love candy and I'm afraid Brixton is taking after me fast. He loves m&m's just like his mommy. I also enjoy seeing the cool things people carve into their pumpkins. My friend Cara and I took Brixton to the pumpkin patch and he loved it. He just wouldn't stop saying "punkin, punkin, punkin" the whole way to pick up Cara. He was running in and out of the rows of pumpkins. The funny part was he didn't want to take one home. He picked out some gourds instead. It was a fun trip to the patch, and we are hoping to go again to get one to carve... or paint that might be a safer option.
Thank you for spending time reading and catching up with me and Brixton's life. We are truly blessed to have such amazing people in out lives, and I am extremely blessed to have such a great little inspiration in my life. Stay tuned for more of our fall adventures!
Brixton sure loves animals! Gizmo is Brixton's favorite cat.
Aubrey is probably Brixton's favorite Bella girl because she gives him balloons.

Brixton met a new bunny friend... one of Aubrey's roommates.

Best picture of the day... his smile all because he loves "punkins" as he calls them...
The best little guy ever. I just love him!
