I just love the holidays. And everything that comes with them. And peppermint (Starbucks peppermint mocha is my favorite!) but I've also heard that peppermint can affect milk supply so I guess I'll have to be careful...?
ETA: I just love Fall period. And it's the best weather where I live!!
Oversized sweaters,leggings, leather boots, going hiking and seeing the colorful leaves, the smell of burning leaves (don't judge me), The Walking Dead, American horror story, corn mazes, and candy corn!!
Cool weather, fall foliage, homemade apple cider + Apple cider donuts, firing up the woodstove, cuddling DH and LO, drinking lots and lots of earl grey tea!

Pumpkin everything Experiencing the holidays w/ my LO Oversized sweaters Boots Hot chocolate My birthday Baking all the time Scandal and blacklist return
Love Halloween and all of the above! Pumpkin picking is one of our huge family traditions, we all go together, apple picking we do with just me, SO and DS. Really hoping I'm up for it this year! Oh and one more weird one, school supplies and the first day of school; something about new beginnings!
Everyone has pretty much hit the nail on the head. But, @DeeGreer, leggings? Really? That's pretty much my current uniform. I can't wait for jeans that button!

My husband and I were just saying we can't wait for fall weather last night particularly excited for: Pumpkin beers Boots Jeans that aren't maternity wear Hoodies Dressing my dog up in Halloween costumes (a pit bull as a banana split?! Get outta here. Adorable.) Cool nights by the fire pit Chunky scarves Turning off the AC and opening the windows
Basically all of the things.
Edit: how did I forget apple cider donuts?! Thanks for the reminder @MariahOBrien !

Walks in the forest with the leaves changing Fall fairs and the delicious food that comes with them Pumpkin everything Thanksgiving My birthday I second @DeeGreer on the leather boots Being off work!
@MariahOBrien I saw one that would fit a chihuahua at our local petsmart the other day, so now I'm on a mission to find one to fit her. I used to have our old dog wear a hot dog costume. It was hands down one of my favorite parts about fall:
@MariahOBrien I saw one that would fit a chihuahua at our local petsmart the other day, so now I'm on a mission to find one to fit her. I used to have our old dog wear a hot dog costume. It was hands down one of my favorite parts about fall:
Wool capes that are going to be even more perfect while baby carrying!
Baking and roasting
All of the fall produce, like apples, pumpkins, pears, and other goodies
Homemade hot cider with cinnamon sticks
Curling up and getting cozy
Our dating anniversary
The mountains turning red
The football mania here is a little overwhelming for me, so I'm going to have to try to avoid all of the black and yellow messing up my fall palette eye candy and people attempting to adorn baby girl in paraphernalia, but I think the fight is worth it for such a beautiful time of year.
@lnord7 errrmahgerrrd!!! So cute! I dressed my dog as a shark last year, but he tore it to shreds a few weeks after Halloween. I'm thinking this year I'll get a costume that looks like a mini jockey is riding him. Or if I can find a hot dog!? He's a random mix of chihuahua Yorkie dachshund so he's got the body for it!
I'm looking forward to pumpkin pie and pumpkin rolls! My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. There are no presents involved, it's all about visiting and enjoying food with family. My family has promised to have wine for me (squee!).
I love this thread! Agh, I'm so ready for fall. I love fall/winter. I'm ready for:
-Oversized sweaters -Boots -Roasting marshmallows over a fire -Pumpkin Spice Lattes -Thanksgiving -Anniversary -My birthday -Dh's birthday -Baby's due date -Burning leaves -HOODIES -Being able to walk the dogs without melting (thank you, Texas...) -Thanksgiving. Bring on the ham and dressing! MMMMMM.
Ahhhhh... I CAN'T WAIT.

Fall is my favorite season as well (except Christmas, but that's 4 days into Winter, so it's still practically Fall).
I'm looking forward to: The leaves changing colors Apple cider Cooler weather (and 1/3 my current electric bill) Boots! And jeans (even my elastic-waist jeans are better than shorts) Bonfires Playoff Baseball Going to the pumpkin patch Pumpkin spice everything Pumpkin beer My regular church activities like play group and Bible study starting up again (even though I'll have to miss a few weeks when DD arrives, I need my get out of the house routine back!)
Everyone has pretty much hit the nail on the head. But, @DeeGreer, leggings? Really? That's pretty much my current uniform. I can't wait for jeans that button!
I've been dreaming about fall for the leggings!! Its so hot here in FL I wouldn't dream of wearing leggings right now (and my shirts aren't long enough and no one wants to see all of that!). I've spotted some fun colors on Jane.com but I've been trying to resist because I have no idea what size I'll be. But I'm so happy I'll dealing with added weight during the season you can hide your body under leggings, oversized sweaters and scarfs!
We are moving right after the baby comes so I'm excited for our first holiday season in the new house with a baby! I can't wait to obsessively decorate and watch my husband complain about putting up christmas lights!
First - YES TO ALL THINGS LISTED! Cool breezes, crips air, pumpkin lattes, leggings, chunky sweaters, no humidity for my curly air. The return of all amazing Fall shows! Move in to my first house Our first wedding anniversary I can't wait
Eeek Fall!!! 1. FOOTBALL baby...we're major football heads around here . 2. Scarfs ,cute boots, cardigans and blazers 3. Cooler weather . Houstons humidity is ridic. 4. Thanksgiving food 5. Our anniversary 6. Starbucks drinks 7. holidays right around the corner as a newly family of 4 .
Fall is my favorite!! I used to look forward to the colors of leaves changing the most but then I moved to Texas... But Texas has some great fall weather! Looking forward to:
Crisp morning breezes Football! High school and college Not being pregnant
@lnord7, I dress my two pit mixes up every year. The best one I have ever bought was a squirrel costume. How can you NOT laugh at a dog dressed as a squirrel?! I'm looking forward to pumpkin beer, playoff baseball, football, and going hiking
@intheversa Thanks for this fun post! I had the crummiest pregnancy night to date last night and this cheered me right up! Fall's my favorite- I can't wait for: Bonfires Burning leaves Homemade apple pie Hard cider Pumpkin patches Crisp air Sweaters And maybe my sweet baby in a costume!
One of the best things about having and October baby, IMO, is that fall fashion is very postpartum-body-forgiving. Skinny jeans, knee high boots, and a flowy (read belly-hiding) top with a cardigan? Yes, please. It doesn't get cold enough here for really chunky sweaters till later, but then there's the option of hoodies, too. Plus the "I don't have time for a pedicure because all I do is nurse a newborn" chipped polish on my toes? Hidden away!
Oh and scarves, and layers make "discreetly" nursing in public easy.
