At 5am this morning the news informed me it was officially Fall! Oh how I love fall weather. I will say that it's too bad we live in Florida though. Fall weather in Florida is NOT the same as Fall weather in Arkansas! I miss the beautiful colors of the leaves when they change colors, all the orange and reds. It's really breathtaking, not to mention the perfect temperatures for just about everything!
Something else really amazing happened today too... Brooklyn laughed for the first time! It was the cutest thing ever and it was a true laugh, not her raspy laugh that sounds more like a grunt/cough either. I stood her up on my dresser where she could see herself in my big mirror. She loved it. She stood there making faces at herself then just started laughing really hard. Jay got his mom on the phone so she could hear Brooklyn laugh too. I tried to get her to laugh when I had Stella on the phone but I guess she had had enough of the mirror by that time.
I have a countdown going on till income taxes! I really can't wait. I finally get my sewing machine. I'm in the process of trying to start up a business too. I have this natural talent of sewing and would at least like to put it to good use. I already have my first order and I made it clear that I wouldn't be ready to start until February. She was okay with that too. I'm not looking to start making a bunch of money right away either. I'm trying to keep a realistic mind about everything. I'm am pretty confident that I can do it though.
My "All My Children" ended today. It was sad watching it all this week. I don't think there wasn't a day that I didn't cry. I know that sounds pretty dumb but I've been watching this show since I was in Kindergarten. The last show really sucked though. I hated the way the ended it. I mean come on, who ends a show (completely done, never making another one) with a cliffhanger? Who the hell did J.R. shoot? Was it Marissa or did Erica get in the way and she was shot instead? And who was the second person that David had hidden? So many questions and there will never be any answers. I wonder if we could get lucky and they make a movie with all these answers? That would be pretty awesome. Though I know I could never go see it in theaters, definitely have to wait for that one to go on DVD lol.
All the kids are finally in bed and now I'm thinking that I should probably get things picked up and get in bed too. Brooklyn hasn't been sleeping as late at night the last few nights. Last night she woke up after 3 1/2 hours. I can't wait for her to start sleeping 5+ hours again! Goodnight everyone!
