Fall, Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins, and 38 Weeks

I'm Yesterday was the first official day of fall. Yay yay yay!! Fall is by far the best season and I have been looking forward to it more than ever this year due to the arrival of my little nugget.

It also just so happens that my baby app informed me that this week Baby M is the size of a pumpkin! How perfect is that?! I'm skipping the stats this week because basically everything is the same as last week,  but here's a picture anyway for your enjoyment. And for documentation purposes.

So in honor of fall, and of the size of Baby M, I am going to share an amazing recipe with you all. Last year a coworker gave me this recipe and it has become one of my favorites, for all year round, but especially during fall. Be careful though… you can't just have one!
