beautiful fall

Fall weather here is getting really lovely. Cool in the mornings, but the afternoons are gorgeous. Trees aren't quite turning yet, but starting. We try to get outside for at least an hour evreyday. Elden loves it.

Last weekend we went to see my father. My step sister Christie watched Elden on Thursday morning so I could run some errands. When I got back they seemed to have had a good time. We enjoyed lunch at country's bbq, then Elden had a nap. Seems normal enough, well when he awoke, something was amiss. No longer my sweet toddler, a little temper tantrum, jumping up and down, crying, arm flailing little monster had awoken instead.

He proceded to behave this way for the rest of the eveing, even though Gran Janny, Dad and myself took him to Hollywood Connection. He screamed on the carosel, they had to stop it and let him and Grandpa Erm off! He screamed on the little train ride! He did not scream on the mini ferris wheel, but he looked incredibly unhappy as he rode it with Gran Janny.

I did get him to go on the carosel one time with me. I let him chose his animal, and of course he chose the zebra! He knows!!

Well, glad to say the rest of the weekend was better, the next morning, he woke up normal again. We got to see my brother and his wife and even stopped at the lake house on our way home and took a nice nature walk with Uncle Alex and Aunt Lyn.
