This is the MOST perfect time of year, most definitely my favorite. I love the weather and all of the changing colors and all of the apple cider up in my face. This has also been the busiest month so far (probably the busiest since Max was born!) and I can’t wait to take our favorite fall drive in another week or two. Today is actually our wedding anniversary (!!!) so we will probably eat some delicious food and go play outside!

Next week we are heading to NYC for some work things, but since I can’t leave my little chubbanugget for a moment, he’s coming along. Baby friendly ideas?

This past week I shared chipotle bacon turkey sliders AND confetti snack cake over on the pioneer woman! Check it out, because when cake is cut into tiny little squares, it is totally a snack. Truth.
