fall! [or don’t fall!]

the leaves are falling, there’s finally a hint of chill in the air! and here i am, walking an almost one year old baby around in the same grassy spot for the third time. maddalena! rocco! oh, life, you are too much. ♡

this past year of having a baby in my arms aaaaaall of the time has just gone by way too quickly. luca is a busy boy now! i love watching him play and follow fluffies around and flat out adore his siblings. he’s been going about growing up in his very own way, and it’s. the. best. he is a head-to-toe smile, this boy. what a gift he gives us all daily!!

gosh. we love you, lu!

[and thank you to my sissy, a thirdborn, for helping me properly capture my thirdborn. it’s a bit more challenging these days!]

[also!! re: the last photo, upon my mother’s inquiry… “i was cooking poop with a stick.” -rocco]
