of October!!
———-
One of the reasons I love blogging is that I love to read blogs. I’m a big ol’ snoop. If I use your bathroom, chances are I may have peeked in your medicine cabinet. I KNOW!! It’s a character flaw. I just love getting a glimpse into your lives! I’m the weirdo who loves it when it’s dark outside and the lights are on in your kitchen and I can see your family doing family things.
I have never sounded creepier than I do right now.
Will I be redeemed if I offer you an unedited peek into our day? The first day of October? In pictures? Please say yes. And please still like me, even though I’m a freak show.

| yes, that’s a rug on my coffee table. |
 |
| don’t judge. it’s clean. |
 |
| how he entertains himself while I gaze over Mt. St. Laundry. Toys? Nah – I want the baby gate that’s not even up yet! |
 |
|
I said unedited. I meant ‘no makeup’. My tiny Boy is so good at being his own nursing cover, isn’t he? |
 |
| hard to tell, but this video monitor is unreal. one of our favorite baby items. |
 |
| a little work during naptime |
 |
| simple whole food crockpot recipe: apple juice, pork chops, apples. chop apples; layer on bottom of crock. top w/chops. pour juice over top. cook low for 8hrs. you can add brown sugar and ginger if you like. so good! |
 |
| awake for snack time |
 |
| squeezing in a little work on the porch |
 |
| nursing and nap. and puppy. |
 |
| waiting for daddy. |
 |
| this tree was ethereal in its autumn beauty. unbelieveable. |

Encouragement straight to your inbox
I'd love to meet you over a picket fence in our backyards with a cup of coffee and a good story. We'd talk real life, real motherhood, and real encouragement.
Add your email below to get spam-free encouragement in your inbox. I share about the extraordinary ordinary found in mothering. Join me at the fence? I'll send you an email when blog posts come out, and occasional other updates. By the way, you can read my privacy policy here: annarendell.com/privacy.
I feel like we are kindred spirits. I love seeing into people’s lives too! I swear it’s all done in love. It’s nice to hear when someone else is as creepy as I am though 😛
And goodness sake those fall pictures make my heart ache for home. Fall and Christmas time are the hardest times to be so far from home.
Right?! So glad someone else understands the draw to the outside window =)
Where was home, Lauren? I could never leave the midwest. I love the seasons too.
Minnesota! I don’t believe I would have left if it weren’t for my husband the soldier 🙂
Love it!
That dinner looks like Fall at it’s finest. And your baby is edible as well.
Hope you got some good peeking in! Thanks for linking up!
Thanks Nicole!!
I love the sneak peek into your world for a day! How wonderful. I LOVE the fall colors and winter is around the corner. I am thankful to live in a place with all four seasons. I am enjoying the changing of them for sure.
Your dinner looked super yummy.
I love having seasons too! And fall is my favorite, with winter following close behind =)
You’ll have to look under the sink in my bathroom. We don’t have a medicine cabinet. Feel free to help yourself to the dozens of rarely used lotions under there. I want to like lotion, but I don’t like having it on me. Also, bring the baby. I have plenty of laundry for him to play on. I think I even still have a baby gate to keep him entertained. WHY AREN’T YOU HERE YET???
On my way!!!
=)
🙂 I like to peek in windows too, when we’re on our evening walk. I love this little peek into your life. Why is there a rug on your coffee table, btw? Also, I’m super impressed that your laundry is all folded, AND that S didn’t knock it all over.
The rug was in the dollar section at Target, and when I put my inRL tray from DaySpring on it it actually looks really cute! But without the tray (like in this picture) it just looks like a rug on my table =)
Love the peek into your world :)Looks like you are quiet ready for fall. Me, not so much. Not yet, anyway!!
You’ve still got time!! It’s only October =)
I love this peek into your life! I totally have to get Logan some little plates like Sam has. Thus far I have put all his food directly on his tray and the few bowls I put on the tray he immediately flips upside down. But maybe I can train him on the plate thing. Looks WAY easier to clean up that the entire tray is. = D
The plates work pretty well! He was having trouble picking pieces up off the actual tray – they were super sticky. The plate helps him a lot, and like you said they’re WAY easier to clean!
I love the fall colors!!! And squash! YUM was that delicious or what?
