Ahhhh! The joys of Autumn...

While the babies are sleeping, Bill and Jordan have been busy outside raking up all the fallen leaves. This is the most dreaded part of Autumn. Jordan, with the natural exuberance of a two year old thought that running and jumping in the piles was the best way to help "Grampie". He is having so much fun out there I just hate to go and haul him into the house for a nap. Maybe a little later.



It took me a while to get some pictures. I had to wait while Jordan ran all over the yard yelling "NO Picture". I can hardly believe that he is camera shy. He's not shy about very much in life.
He was refusing to get up off the pile here, and really having so much fun. Bill was trying to get those leaves into a bag and Jordan thought it was so funny that Bill was scooping him into the bag as well.

We have all been sick since just before Thanksgiving, but I think we are on the mend now. The babies haven't been sleeping well at night and I think that has greatly contributed to Bill and I not being able to shake the "crud" quickly. Since Bill was the last one to get it, he is still coughing quite a bit but the medication the Dr. gave him is helping a lot...
