5 weeks since I last posted! What have we been doing?!
Well, I guess I'll just jump right in. Julia has started talking so much more. She repeats everything we say and even remembers things we've mentioned once or twice. Here's an example: Whenever we get home, she always wants to walk around the front of the car. She calls it "this way." I think once we must have asked her to go "this way" and now she feels like that's what she needs to do every time. Another one: she yells "STORE" (only it sounds like show) whenever we pass any Ingles.
She also started referring to herself as Jul-a. I'm a little scared she has dropped the adorable "Jule" for good. We're going to try to keep it going.
We (Jule and I) have also started working at Cheshire--the gym in Black Mountain--in the Kidzone. Two days a week we spend the morning with a bunch of other kids whose Moms are getting a few precious moments to themselves. I think it's a very good cause. Julia usually enjoys it, too. When I ask her what we are going to do at work, she usually says "play." And "run."
Here are a few recent pictures of Jule and friends. She is growing up so much!
Yesterday we went to the Hickory Nut Gap farm to pick a pumpkin, pet some baby animals, buy some apples, and basically kick off fall. (yay!) We picked the perfect day for it too. It was CHILLY and so beautiful!
We shared this apple on the way home. So delicious.
This is the promised picture of the shed. Nick did a great job on it. It's done just in time for storing firewood!

Love that picture of Jule with her pumpkin, it's good that she is talking more just in time for her album to come out. She was meant for me and I was meant for her...
ellen was convinced that that pic of julia and her was a video and was begging me to play it
I can't believe how big she's getting! The picture of her on that pumpkin is SO sweet! All of our babies are growing up so fast...didn't we just have them?!?
Oh Fall!!! I'm so glad it was chilly for your pumpkin picking trip. That backlit picture of Julia and the pumpkin is solid gold. I also love the one with the two boys in the playground, what a smile! And that shed, holy cow. That is so sweet and big! I'm sure it's bigger than our apartment, in fact, couldn't we move in? We'll live off your fruit trees and garden, you'll never know we're there.
oh my word look at that shed!!!i had no idea about it! way to go. Love all those pictures of the sweet JuJu. Thank you also for working in the gym so I can get a few precious moments. Too bad we can't take them when they are sick that is when we need it the most!
Jule and her pumpkin are oh so cute! And I love hearing about all her talking. How cute is that! They really do pick up on so much that we say and do too. The family photo is a cute one too! It reminds me of one you did last year, yet you and Nick are the same, but Jule has grown! And boy do they grow up fast!
Oh and the shed is amazing! Great job, NIck!
