Fast forward through September, tomorrow's October!

I realized I only had three posts in September besides this one; thought I'd fast-forward through the last couple of weeks in one post. We have a busy few weeks ahead of us, so that means many more posts in October. :)

- Fall has finally arrived in South Georgia! Cooler temperatures mean we have been able to go walking in the early morning or evening with Cooper. The three of us really enjoy the family time together! (Molly would join us, but she is still recovering from her second knee surgery.)

- Our long-time friends, Eric and Lindsay, came to visit last Sunday and spent the night with us on their way to Knoxville. We enjoyed the conversations, laughs, pancakes, and coffee shop visit. Great to catch up with them! They can vouch that Cooper does sleep well now. :)

- Cooper continues to sleep through the night.. and by "through the night," I mean 10+ hours every night. He's growing right before our eyes, being more verbal and interacting with his environment. He loves being read to, riding in the jogging stroller on walks, being in his swing, and listening to music. He is such a happy little guy and joy to be around, smiling and laughing all the time! 

- Timothy is right in the thick of the fall semester/schedule at church. He's preaching every other week at Sunday@Six as part of our church's new series, Truthipedia. The Youth beach trip is very soon; the planning stage is in full force! He's also taking an online seminar through Pittsburgh Seminary entitled "Ancient Christian Faith Initiative."

- And I am plugging away at my quilt every chance I get (between taking care of Cooper and working for Young Life). So fun! :)

- Lastly, we have embarked upon the adventure of painting the outside of our house! So excited to get started! Many more posts to come...
