Oh no, it's FALL already?!

Well, let me start off this post with some lovely fall pictures.

Now, if you are expecting me to go on and on about how much I love fall... you're on the wrong blog. I hate fall. Absolutely LOATHE it.
Let me give you some reasons why:
  • You know all those pretty colors that everyone oohs and ahhs about? To me, red and orange and yellow and brown leaves are not pretty. I see them for exactly what they are- dead. What's to love about a season where everything around you is DYING?
  • My favorite thing about nature is the color GREEN: Green grass, green leaves, green trees. Fall zaps all the "green" out of everything :(
  • Fall in northern Michigan is like a fleeting, pretty moment before winter... when everything will be buried under snow... for over six months.
  • Raking the yard is always a losing battle. I don't know about you, but after I've been working all day, I like to feel a sense of accomplishment. And, when a gust of wind scatters 1,000 leaves all over your freshly raked yard... that's just not cool.
  • My nose and knuckles are always chapped in fall. Ouch.
  • Fall = the season of runny noses and colds.
  • I just DON'T like it!
... but, at least I can get some pretty pictures.

It took me far longer to type out that list than it would for you to click below and vote for me... ;) Vote For Us @ topbabyblogs.com!

  2. First off, YOU ARE SO CUTE!! Your bump is perfect, I love it!

    I'm in Michigan as well, and I love Fall! It's not so much the leaves, but it's the weather. Not too hot, not too cold, and not snowing. Perfect! I also love Fall because when I first found out I was pregnant, I calculated my pregnancy out, and making it to Fall while still pregnant was one of my biggest hopes and dreams. And it's here! Yaaaay!

  5. I love this post! I like the fall but *only* b/c I don't like really hot weather, so it cools down some. Spring is my favorite season. I agree with AmyLee, everyone is posting about how much they love the fall so it was refreshing to read your post. ;) I love this pic of you btw. Can't wait to see Elliot!

  7. Um, yeah....you are friggin' adorable! Love your belly, and the fact that you actually do your hair. I think I did my hair about 40% of the time when I was pregnant and now I just wear it up all the time to keep it out of the baby's (I mean Toddler, but I'm not ready to say that yet)grasp!
