Five Things Friday

{penelope in the orchards; photo by carly arin photography}

Is it me or as we near the final third of the year, do the weeks just seem to fly by faster? I swear, Christmas will be here before we know it. This week was a rough one in the working mom department, and also in the sleep {or lack thereof} department in that I didn't get a whole lot. I also just lost half of my post after I finished writing it :\ So in other words, I'm ready for this week to end.

In any event, this weekend we plan to take Penelope pumpkin picking and perhaps catch a hay ride or corn maze. Last weekend, we took her to the apple orchards and had some professional photos taken {see above}. I really wanted to capture her at this fun-loving age where everything is interesting and exciting to her. My friend Carly took some really beautiful photos and I'll be sharing some of my favorites next week. I hope you all have a truly fantastic weekend filled with rest and apple cider donuts!
