I’m nine months old people!!!! Can you believe it? That’s right, yesterday was my birthday. To celebrate I slept through the night!!! And I’m not talking any piddly 6 to 8 hour stretch. Mom put me down at 6:45 pm and I slept, and slept, and slept, until 6:20 am!!!! Mom’s hoping for a repeat performance tonight, but I can’t make any promises as it took quite a bit of concentration.

In other news, this past weekend was a big family reunion for me. I traveled to Connecticut with Mom and Dad, and saw tons of aunts and uncles, and a bunch of my cousins. Here I am with all my beautiful big girl cousins.

Overall I have to say it was a perfect Fall weekend. We went for a walk in the woods to check out the foliage, here I am playing with the big girls in the leaves. What, you can’t see me? Oh, I’m just outside the shot kicking up leaves in my stroller.

After our stroll in the woods we went back to the house and cousin Vivi and I played a few duets on the piano.

Dewd, my cousins are so lucky, they have an actual life sized Trampoline in their yard!!! If you don’t know what a Trampoline is, it’s sort of like a giant Exersaucer that your whole family can play on at once! Check it out:

We worked up quite an appetite so later we built a huge fire outside and made Smores! Too bad I’m not allowed chocolate until one year. I tried to tell Mom I could handle a roasted marshmallow or two, but she wouldn’t listen. Bummer. I told Mom I wanted a Smores Cake for my 1st Birthday.

Here I am all bundled up with Dad before we went out to roast marshmallows.

What great weekend.

You all know I’m a Winter baby, going out in the snow before I was even a month old. And I’ve been all around the Spring and Summer months. So now, after this weekend of official Fall weather, I think I’m finally qualified to declare a winner. After what I’ve heard about this Halloween stuff, I have to declare Fall the Best Season Ever!

Speaking of Halloween, do you have your costume ready yet??? There’s only 14 days left!!!

Well, gotta run, it’s time for bed!
