going summer to fall with my little bunny lady

the days are long, but the years are short... that's what they say, right! but actually, i really feel like the days are short, too, because we mostly have fun, me and the lady girl. i am so in love with her every single inch, and two years in, it's still pretty mind blowing. ugh, she's so cool! (total mom stuff coming...) and funny. and smart. and when she dances i fall over dead, i can't even handle it. and her little voice! i know every mom feels this way about their little one, but still, i just neeeeed to talk about it! and sure, there are days where i want to pull all my hair out, but those days end, and new ones begin, and generally the new ones get right back to amazing. at least that's the way i see it.
but really, now that she's not a baby, it feels a lot like we're just two girls hangin' out together ever day, and it's absolutely my dream come true. i was just never meant to be one lone lady during my days while husband charming is off slaying the dragons! and i sure as heck wasn't meant to be the dragon slayer, either. no, clearly, i was meant to be the one getting very little sleep and drinking much too much coffee. yep, bye sleep! see ya never, i guess! xoxoxo!
and so, we've been going from summer to fall around here, and it changes how we do things a little bit! i kind of really savor this seasonal transition, to be honest. it's such a calm before the storm, is it not?! oh yes, a big, glittery birthday/holiday storm is a-brewing, and i can feel it in my bones! and while i love it, love it, idoidoidoooo, it makes me straight up crazy at the same time, and then i'm only semi-recovered by the following june.
so!!! here we are. and it's officially fall. and i put cinnamon in my coffee today! and it was a whole new level of cozy, and i never argue with cozy.
aaand ps! photo cred to maddalena on the b&w solo shot of moi! i tend to think i look like an alien feline in many photos, but i was impressed, still. and while we're at it, a bonus shot by maddalena this morning...

...ahh yes! the man with the yellow hat and his secret lover, professor wiseman! i can't even with those two. why don't they just announce their love, already?! maddalena is pretty proud of this shot, by the way! "mia! take! picture! of! man wis yellow hat! and... fessor! sizemnnn!" oh, mornings with maddalena... and curious george. aka. confessions of a mom who will never be a morning person. :)
happy fall to you!
