Leaf us alone!

Yes, it's awfully pretty around here these days with the leaves changing colors.  The midwest is truly beautiful this time of year - something I didn't really see growing up in Texas.  While Ryan and I love to look at the beauty of it all, we can't help but curse it all at the same time.  We live on the corner, and because of the way the winds blow, we seem to get EVERYONE else's leaves.....not to mention, we have GIANT trees on our property to add to it.  Last year, we had 62 bags of leaves that took countless hours to clean up.  This year, I think we might be going for a record.  In the mean time......look at how pretty it is. 

I have another problem.  I've been a bit stroller obsessed since we found out we were pregnant with baby #2.  We do a lot of walking around here in our small town and the stroller purchase seems to carry as much weight as a vehicle!  So, thanks to my mom, we already have our fancy new double stroller!  Michael took a stroll this morning around the house with his pal Elmo.  On another note, if anyone has ANY questions about double strollers - I'm your hero.  I feel like I have a PhD on the subject!
