Happy Fall everyone! What beautiful weather we've been having in the Midwest the last couple of days. We've enjoyed trips to the farmer's market and park in the beautiful crisp fall air, and heading down to New Glarus to keep tabs on the house progress.
The summer was full of trips to Lakeside, Woodstock, and Downers Grove to see family and friends. The adjustment to apartment living hasn't been terrible, but we will be very happy to have a yard for Tate and Zoey to run around in soon. The builder thinks we can be in sometime in January; here's hoping!!!
Work has been very busy for me, as I am now working with a second breast oncologist in clinic on Fridays, and the chemo room is nuts as always. There's always job security, unfortunately ;( Some days it feels like I'm being pulled in a million different directions at once; I'm sure that sounds familiar to many of you out there ;)
Kenny is glad the busy season for Sara Lee is now over, and he can say good-bye to the 16 hour days. Tate is 20 months now! Chattering up a storm (mostly jibberish) and getting into lots of mischief. He loves books and trains (pretty much anything that moves), bike rides and trips to the zoo.

Here are the boys on Tate's first bike ride!!!
One of our trips home was for Tyler's 1st birthday on August 27th!!!
He really loved the awesome monkey cake his Mommy made him:
"I'm all set to go water the plants, Mommy!"
A new favorite, corn on the cob!
Tate loves his Papa's (Kenny's dad) cowboy boots, even if they might be a touch big:
Modeling his fall wardrobe for Mommy:
"CHEESE!!!!"
So we finally broke ground in early September, only a month behind schedule :/
We had fun showing Tate the big "dirt-scooper" and the giant hole that our house will soon sit in...
A week after breaking ground.. Voila, there's a foundation! The "house package" arrives from the Wausau company on October 12th, so I'll be sure to post more pics soon when things actually start to resemble a house:
This is looking southeast through the dining room:
Fun at Edward's Orchard last weekend in Poplar Grove; "Look, Dad, it's a fly!":
Nothing makes Tate happier than a train or tractor:
Trying on one of his Halloween options.... it's SUPER TATE:
Well, Happy October to all! Take care and enjoy the pumpkin spice lattes while you can!XOXO,
Meredith
