We went to the Morton Aboretum today. There were lots of pretty trees and fall colors but not as many as we thought there would be. They have scarecrows set up around a lake and we had fun walking around the lake and looking at the different scarecrows. Here's a picture of Dad's favorite one, the Blues Brother Scarecrow! Kayla's trip there was her first one riding in the car facing forward. Her legs are getting long enough that we thought she was getting cramped facing the seat. Lately Kayla hasn't been sleeping through the night. When we went on Monday to the doctor for Kayla's 15 month check-up the doctor said it was probably just seperation anxiety. She wants to sleep in the bed with Mom and Dad, even if it isn't that comfortable for any of us!

So many happenings! :-)
Ok, so we're still terrible about posting on here..sue us! But really, we are bad. No promises to get better either. But on to the updating.
Our little one has been full of wonder as of late. Her few steps have become actual movement across a room-walking! Yeah for Kayla! She has also mastered crawling up the stairs, stopping while walking and picking things up, etc...etc....She still resorts to crawling most of the time to actually get around, but she's walking more and more everday. She keeps amazing us with all of her progress!
Still not so keen on the talking yet though. She signs some, and loves to say Dada..no Mama though :-( She waves hi and bye and also tries to say hi and bye as well. It's so cute-all the strangers think so ;-) She has a tendency to way at every single person at the grocery store! LOL.
We can't believe how fast time is flying. It's already October! Christmas will be here before you know it! Ah! At least we have her shopping done..not much else though yet :-( But first up is Halloween, which most of you probably know is huge in Kyle's book. After much ado, we've finally picked out her Halloween costumes. As you can see, she gets to be two things! Captain America (cause Daddy says) and an Elephant (cause I say) :-) But she will be soo cute in them! We're planning on taking her to several fall events at which to wear them, as well as trick or treating some on Halloween. Yes, I know she's little, but it will still be fun, even if we just go around the block :-) Right now my parents are at Disneyworld and hopefully will be bringing back an adorable Micky mouse trick or treat pumpkin for her to use...oh how fun time is becoming!
We have more pictures and video to post, but I'll try and do that later. That's all for now!
