I am beyond amazed at how fast time flies right now… it seems like we make it through the week and the weekend is over in a blink of an eye and we’re back to the 6am bus stop. Sleeping in really isn’t a thing in this house…

Our 6 month tax ‘season’ has finally ended for now just in time to get ready for year-end prep! Head’s up to my clients – I’ll be emailing you soon with reminders

In the meantime, I’m loving the cooler weather here now and have been able to get some gardening done in the front of the house…We’ve been passing some nasal/cough/icky funk back and forth between the kids and adults and I’m hoping that this week is the last of it! We are all super tired lately.

I took Aléa to her two month visit – WHAT?? and the little (not so little) angel now weighs in at a healthy 10 1/2 lbs – she’s really growing sooo fast.I got baby snuggles this am while mom made breakfast for the boys… Then Remi came in as a monster… he does that a lot lately

But I have to admit the highlight of the week was teaching Cam how to ride his bike The first attempts were painful and we will spare you those videos – but the look on his face was the BEST when he realized he finally got it! Today Mimi even ran while he rode his bike around the ‘block’. (NO – there are no pictures/video of that – thank goodness…)

And the Mimi lessons still keep coming…

• No matter how many times I get to hold/feed Aléa I still forget to get a burp cloth first… My outfits are great at catching liquids
• NEVER start a question with ‘Would you like to….” For these boys, it’s “Now it’s time to…”
• Remi can now open the bathroom door **Ahem** and the refrigerator – of course the latter is more important for Remi…

I can’t believe we’re half way through October… the goal is to stay safe and healthy for the rest of the year!! Rest assured, more stories to come
