Fall in August

Yesterday was just too perfect of weather to ignore! It was absolutely georgeous outside...breezy, crisp, sunny. It was also a rare day during fall outreach where Logan didn't have to work at any point in the day, so we enjoyed a carefree timelessness family day. 
We decided the farmers market would be fun, so we met up with friends and ended up just sitting at the park along the market while the kids played for three hours. We took a picnic lunch too. I looked at five booths tops. I'll have to go back. 
Elias tried out the Boba for the first time and loved it! I don't know how long he slept in it, but it was awesome. My back never hurt, which is amazing when it comes to baby wearing. I'm not surprised he liked it because both of his brothers hated riding on the front (Lewis loved riding in it on my back), and he is the complete opposite of them. I'll keep using it so by November we're pros...a little Momma/baby weekend getaway is in the works, and it'll come in handy in the airport. 
We closed down the farmers market at noon and decided to take a campus walk. Students were everywhere moving in, and Rush girls were finding out what house they were accepted to, so it was bustling. 
We stopped at the Union fountain and no one (read: Lewis) fell in! Then we stopped at the Newman Center and then headed home. It was a great morning/afternoon. At one point I asked Logan what he would give me if I randomly went running up to a sorority front door where all the girls were screaming with excitement when a new member came in and acted like I was a new member. It would have been hilarious to watch their confused faces. 
When we got home, Lewis and I delivered some too-small diapers to some neighbor's. 
He filled his wagon with treasures on the way home. 
He talked to me A LOT. He's very into asking "where ______ come from?"
We had ice cream cones to end the day and Lewis learned a hard lesson: don't eat the bottom of the cone first. 
We ended the day with reading library books. It was a great family day!
