Leaf Jumping!

The leaves finally started to fall off the trees! The older girls grabbed their rakes to help me make some leaf piles to jump in while their younger siblings napped. I love that you can see their personalities in these pictures!

 Azucena is meticulous. The leaves had to be gathered just so, and the different kinds needs to be separated. She also analyzed how to jump in. Always started from the same place, used a countdown, and jumped into the same part.

 Adelaide is such a crazy ball of energy! She also hams it up for the camera. She'd run back and forth, leap into the pile, throw leaves into the air, anything and everything!

 

 Austin woke up so I brought him out into the leaves. He was confused about all the pokey things jabbing into him but took his time looking around at his new surroundings.

 Aurora was very upset that she was awake. (We did not wake her. But she apparently needed more nap time.) She pouted because we made her participate. :D
