Happy Halloween

This is the first year Susanna REALLY understood Trick or Treating and she LOVED IT!!! She kept saying, "More Trick or Treat Mommy, Lets do another house!" Noah joined in too and both kids had a great night!



"This is a nice ghost Mommy"


Posing with her candy after we got back home, she was VERY happy and proud of her full pumpkin!


"I wanna eat this one first please"


Even though the lolly was still covered Noah was trying to eat it through the paper!


Check out the candy stash!!!!


Happy Halloween Everyone!!!

Clap Clap Noah

Noah has been practicing clapping for a while now and finally figured out how it really works. And he has been clapping ever since, sooo cute!!!

Whoops, sorry!

I realize it has been a while since my last post and after logging onto the blog I now see it has been over a month, WOW!! Since coming home from our trip to Ohio we have been busy busy busy getting back into our normal routine. Susanna is back to her gymnastics class and playgroups. Noah's crawling VERY fast now and pulling up on anything and everything. He has not started walking along the furniture yet but I know it could be any day now. He had his 9 month appointment and weighed in at 23.1 pounds!!! So far he has been right on track with Susanna's growth but this time he weighed almost a half a pound more. He doesnt have fat rolls like many babies do but he is VERY solid and VERY strong!! He is trying new foods everyday and this week he ate his first spaghetti and loved it!! He looked soo cute all covered in noodles and sauce.




A few weeks ago we visited Hillridge Farms pumpkin patch. This trip has become a tradition for us and this year we went with The Rutkowski Family. We had a wonderful time with wonderful weather.











We now have four pumpkins decorating the front of our house and Susanna likes to point out which pumpkin belongs to each of us!


Two weekends ago Susanna and Noah met their cousin Sophia for the first time. Gabriel and Meagan came to visit and spent three fun days with us. Sophia was born in July and is almost 3 months old now. She is such a great baby with the cutest chubbiest little legs and we all loved having her here. Susanna and Noah love their newest cousin and look forward to growing bigger so they can play with her even more!!

Over the weekend Miguel and Gabriel smoked a pork shoulder, Meagan and I drank wine as we cooked lots of food, the kids played and napped, and we all enjoyed the first fire in our new patio firepit! Fun was had by all and we really enjoyed their visit and cant wait to see them again very soon!!

In other baby news I want to say a big CONGRATS to my friends Cara and Daryl as they are expecting their first baby due May 2011!! Cant wait to find out if I should be buying pink or blue for you!!!
Also, my best friend Vicki found out that her baby due in January is a GIRL! They are very excited to be adding another girl to their family, Congrats big sister Ava!!
