Sugar Plum Fairy

What do you think of my Halloween costume? Aunt Bethie and Aunt Kathy dressed me up and took me to see my cousins Keara and Aidan in their school’s Halloween Parade. It was lots of fun! I can’t wait until Halloween so I can go trick or treating with Mommy and Daddy!

My baby brother (part III)

Baby Brother Stork Snapshot Mommy and Daddy took me to see new pictures of my baby brother. I guess he is kinda cute. Mommy said that I was kinda shy when I got my pictures taken. My brother must like showing off, because he posed for a lot of pictures! I can’t wait to meet him!

What a Big Girl

10/23/2006

Annalise has been working on this for a while, and she finally did it! She took a step by herself on Saturday, October 21st (2 days shy of her 9 month birthday). Both Pat and I were sitting on the playroom floor when she took a step to get from me to him. We’re so proud of her!

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Annalise

It's the Great Pumpkin, Annalise Whew, what a busy week! I’ve lost track of the time we’ve spent in corn mazes, the Morton Arboretum and picking apples…but I think Mommy’s caught a cold from all this farm air! Aunt Kathy took some photos our our trip to Kuiper’s Farm…and there’s some pictures of “Aunt” Lisa and Ali on our trips to the Morton Arboretum and Jonamac Orchard

In Columbus, They Have Christmas in October…

10/08/2006

xmas-temp.jpgLast weekend we went to Columbus, Ohio for Christmas! I know, that’s what I said….who ever heard of Christmas in October? In any case, as this was my very first “Christmas,” I wasn’t about to complain. It all started when Mommy and Daddy took me on another plane ride to visit my Aunt Amy and Uncle Chris and my cousins Zack and Addie - whom I met for the first time. Grandma and Grandpa were there with the rest of Daddy’s side of the family. I got my very own cell phone and car keys! They’re fun, but for some reason, I still prefer Mommys’. Zack and Addie’s new house is very nice and I had a great time crawling around with my cousin Samantha…but I didn’t get much sleep and by the end of weekend I was totally wiped out. The best part is I heard Mommy and Daddy say something about the next Christmas being in December in Naperville. If they have Christmas in Columbus in October and Naperville in December, where can we go to have Christmas in November? Maybe South Bend, Indianna?
