One

 
Oh, my sweet baby boy! What a difference a year makes! I never knew I could love something so intensely, with such devotion. As I just told my sister Devan (who's visiting from Florida), motherhood is the hardest, yet most rewarding work I've ever done. 

We're off to an nearby orchard for a bit of apple-picking, donut-eating, cider-sipping, picnicing and general merriment. This is especially befitting for the little dude, as his favorite, and most often used, word is, you guessed it-"apple"!!! Photos to come! 

*We're also throwing Huxley a "Wild Things" birthday party next weekend, a bit closer to Halloween so that costumes can be on view (also, Hubs is attending the annual Asheville Scrabble Club Tournament this weekend-send him "big win" vibes, if you're so inclined...). Photos and full party details forthcoming!

    Happy Birthday wishes to little Huxley. Apples and donuts and cider is a pretty nice way to spend a fall birthday, best wishes to the whole family.
