On our walk through the parks today, I met the guard at the gate with “I am watching the clock!” He warned me that they will be moving up the gate-locking time again tomorrow. It’s now dark at 6pm, and pitch-black by 7. I think we’re diving right into late-fall weather, too, with things a bit wet and windy. So, it’s time to dig out the hats and mittens!
We decided to have an English breakfast for dinner today: scrambled eggs, a side of mushrooms/bell pepper/onions, and baked beans. The kids were quite happy (protein-lovers that they are), and it was nice to keep things simple this evening.

Aww, the height discrepancy between the two is really amazing! Ms. K. has grown so much and it shows in her expressions too. 🙂
I have many not-so-fond memories of rushing from the Sainsbury’s to get to the gate before they locked up! I forgot how short the daylight hours are too.
We’ve had some winter hat mornings here in Chicago too — 29 degrees my first morning of work last week! In true Midwestern fashion, it was 61 degrees this morning, so we still have quite a range in fall 🙂
