hello...summer?

As we get closer and closer to December I keep on waiting for the weather to cool down.  Well, it's not happening.  Today it was 71 degrees out!  At church during the children's sermon, about seasons, the woman giving it asked what season it was.  One of the little boys enthusiastically answered "summer"!  The lady said "no, it's not summer, it's fall".  Though it certainly does feel like summer out.

We had a slew of 6 month clothes that I thought Samantha wouldn't get to wear since at nearly 8 months, she is just fitting into her 6 month things.  We bought 6 month summer clothes!  So today, I put on this gorgeous plaid dress I received at my baby shower and paired it with some bake shop baby legs and we were good to go.  She looked adorable, and I was thrilled that we finally got to use the dress.

Wednesday, Samantha and I head to Chicago to visit with my family.  Forecasted temperatures are mostly in the 30's, sometimes dropping into the 20's.  So Samantha will get to experience a nice true winter after all.  I'm hoping while we are there she might even get to experience her first snow fall!!  How fun would that be?
