A few weeks ago for our Life Group, we had a "soups and chili" night since it was rainy and cold. Perfect weather for our meal. I made butternut squash soup and pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. Yummy! I'm mad now that I didn't think to take a picture. Oh well. It was delicious though!
With the whole pregnancy, I've been feeling so out of the loop. Normally, I would have been thinking fall in September, but somehow it just slipped by me until it started getting cooler outside. Then it just hit me, and I got really excited. So to go with our soups and chili and the colder weather, I finally got around to decorating for Fall.
Last year, I didn't really decorate the front entryway since we lived in an apartment. This year, though, I decided to buy a few mums and a pumpkin to put on my front porch. And it looks so cozy.

I'm still debating on how I should decorate the mantle. I've been looking for ideas on Pinterest and found a few that I like. We'll see....I'm not set on anything right now....maybe I'll start thinking Christmas.

On a side note, I'm at 24 weeks this Friday. Over halfway to seeing our little girl! I cannot wait to meet her! She's been so active lately, kicking and moving all around! It weird to watch my whole stomach shift as she moves. I can usually see exactly where her head and feet are. So exciting! I registered last weekend and found the perfect bedding set! I finally know what color I'm going to paint the nursery, so now it's just a matter of getting the paint. And if I think of it this way....there's only 8 weeks til Christmas, then only 8 weeks after that until my due date!!! She'll be here before I know it!
