Showers of Blessings {6}

It's time for another blog about a few blessings this past week!

We went to Epcot last Friday in the afternoon and enjoyed walking around the world exhibits and trying different foods from the various countries. During the Food and Wine Festival they have dozens of mini restaurants set up in the various countries where you can sample foods and drinks that are special to those places. We love food and the weather was perfect and it wasn't very crowded. It was a really fun family date and James was content in his stroller which was an added bonus! Next year our goal is to "eat our way around the world" where you get a passports and have it stamped at each country after you sample some food. That will be fun!

It's finally feeling like fall here in Florida! The weather is beautiful, mid-60's to mid-70's and sunny and it actually feels cold in our apartment in the mornings. (I don't think our air has turned on at all in the last 24 hours!) Two weeks ago I was feeling a little down about missing out on the beautiful fall where the leaves change and you need a sweatshirt so Tyler suggested I go get a few decorations that would make it feel more like fall. What a sweet husband he is! So here is what I got and we've been enjoying them!

I saw something similar to this on pinterest and I've never made a table centerpiece so I really enjoyed this craft.

We moved James into his own room to sleep. This has been a blessing because Tyler and I can read at night and not worry about waking James up BUT it has also been hard because James hasn't slept as well as usual. I've decided I need to be grateful for the past three months of sleep and let go of what the future holds, although overall James is still a good sleeper. We are trying to transition him out of being swaddled which has distrupted his routine so we'll see how it goes for the next few weeks!

We've been trying a lot of new recipes for dinner! It's been fun to cook different meals than we normally cook and also plan dinners based on healthy food instead of whatever we have around the kitchen or what is easiest. I'll post some of our favorite new meals in another blog!
