The Garden

We love Fall.  We love the coolness of the weather and the changing colors in the trees.  Oliver loves the pumpkins he is seeing every time we walk in to a grocery store.  We took a ride up to the Botanic Garden again yesterday because we just needed to be outside. It's one of our favorite places in the Chicago area. It is our place of peace and calm.  Now that Oliver is on the go he loves wandering through the garden paths.

He also loves climbing up on the benches.  He thinks he's pretty big stuff sitting on them.

He's also becoming a little ham for the cameras.  Say cheese!

Oliver couldn't get enough of this giant pumpkin.  (It's not real - just a statue.)  He sat on the bench in front of it and you could tell he was just trying to figure that thing out.

Our fingers are crossed for some more gorgeous Autumn days like yesterday!
