3 Little Birds

It's *almost* old news that Amelie started at a new school. The new school is called 3 Little Birds and they have a blog that is updated weekly, at least. Feel free to take a look at the pictures of the kiddos, doing what they do best, having all sorts of fun!

This is Amelie during her first week, what a sweetheart:

Late Update

This is from a few weeks ago. The family took a walk to the park, super fun & perfect Fall day. Yay!

The Perfect Fall Day.

The H-Dub family had a great day today! Not only was it amazing October weather, mid-60s with a perfectly clear blue sky all day... but we got to spend most of it outdoors together! It started with a friends 1st-year birthday party (happy day to Weston!) and then we hung out in the neighborhood taking a walk to the park.

We have the prettiest tree in the front yard. It's gotta be the first one in St. Paul to change and it's the most amazing shape.



At the park, this girl never 'tires' of spinning on the tire-ring (yes, pun intended).



Best.Fall.Day.Ever.

Don't forget about me!!

I always make excuses as to why I don't blog. Many of my excuses are probably familiar to dedicated readers so I won't even list them off today.

My reason for writing is mostly because I'm procrastinating. I'm hitting the end of my semester and papers are starting to be due, outlines should be written, and exams should be prepared for... ouch. It is also the crispy fall weather that deserves time outside in leaves with dogs and savored as the last moment before winter arrives. It's a good thing that Craig is enjoying it while I'm sitting in the library; "only two more years of this" keeps repeating in my mind.

The hard work is really not that bad, it's enjoyable stuff. I just hope that my little A doesn't blame me when she's 3.5 that I wasn't around during her first couple of years. I know, I know, fat chance...

This was pretty pointless. But I do feel the need to say that I will be available for fun starting the 2nd week of December until the 2nd week of January. If anyone wants to visit, chat, hang out, have dinner, watch tennis (hallelujah the Australia Open in January!), or just be boring together - please please please find me!

I miss my friends.

Here an adorable pic of the A last weekend playing in the leaves (I took a 5 minute break to take pictures of her per Craig's request). Nice, huh?!
