I just can’t help it – suddenly I feel like we’re living in a fall cliche!
At least there’s no pumpkin spice in my coffee 
But that’s a whole grain frozen waffle (I stole one of Birch’s) with my recent batch of pumpkin spice almond butter on top.
Cool, Crisp Mornings
I saw my breath on the way to school! Birch got a blanket added for his lap, and I broke out some gloves. Life is currently cold in the shade and hot in the sun. I’m taking my layers on and off all day!
Birchie’s New Boots
Aren’t they so cute! (They are these from Target.) He can put them on himself rather easily, so they are his shoes of choice all day, everyday now.
This Woodlands Playground
Our weekends are filled with soccer games and playgrounds.
We went to Mazen’s soccer game at an elementary school out in the Cville countryside and liked the playground so much we went back during the week!
Going…
Going…
Gone!
First S’mores
He looks like he’s into the s’more right? Wrong. He didn’t like that it made his hands sticky and actually threw it on the ground!
You bet that I picked it back up and ate it. No s’mores will go to waste!
Warm Oatmeal + Pumpkin Spice
I need to march myself to the store to get some canned pumpkin because I am late to the party on that one! Pumpkin cottage cheese is one of my all-time favorite oatmeal combos.
Quiche + Quiche
Plenty quiche is always so good!
Siri is so basic
This started auto playing when I turned it on. No, Siri, no!
Jocelyn says
Make sure to grab any pumpkin you find. At least on the west coast they keep telling me at the store there is a major shortage this year!!
Jocelyn says
Nope never mind just looked it up. There is just a delay in harvesting cause of rain should be in stock mid October.

Oh thanks for the head’s up!

Same here in CA with the weather. In the morning I have my seat warmers and heater on in the car, and by afternoon the A/C’s running. I like Birch’s boots!
Jordan says
Do you mind sharing Birch’s boots? I am looking for something similar for my little guy who just turned 2!
Kath Younger says
They’re linked in the post – from Target!
Maria says
Hey Kath, Love your blog and content! For some reason today I could barely read and scroll through this post due to the amount of ads and pop ups. I normally don’t have so many ads on your blog posts, just thought I would mention in case you have some control over it. Keep up the great work ?
Kath Younger says
Thanks – I’ve had my team tweaking them here and there and will give feedback
Susan says
What’s the recipe for the pumpkin cottage cheese oats? Thanks!
Kath Younger says
You simply stir pumpkin and cottage cheese (about 1/4 a cup of each) into the end of cooking stove-top oats!
Heather says
Beautiful photos of Birch. Where did you get his grey sweater? Looking for outfits for fall pictures. Thanks!!
Kath Younger says
It’s by Cherokee – it was Mazen’s!
Ellen says
Ahhh, I love his little boots! And I love little boys in sweaters!
