Ellie and her "almost' crawling...

A Weekend at Home...

Before:

1/2 Way Through...we still have to paint the bottom half and install the light fixture...

My favorite part of it getting colder outside...decorating for Christmas!

We DO still have a stocking for Pip, just haven't unpacked that box yet...Notice Ellie's stocking (on the far right) is already a little heavy...

And the best feature of the weekend...the star of OUR show...

Fun with Ellie

I had some fun with Ellie tonight and captured some new moments on film...

This is Ellie's new fun trick, we're not sure if it's a laugh or a "sound effect", but it's mostly a "monkey see, monkey do" trick. One thing's for sure...we think it's pretty cute.

Ellie's still not crawling, but this week has made progress in that area...pulling?

Chris...the world traveler...

This past week, Chris got the opportunity to travel to Santiago, Chile for work...funny thing is, once he got out there, they didn't end up needing him to work, so it ended up being a six day vacation in the Andes mountains! Poor thing...

Our little lamb...

Well, our little pumpkin's first Halloween came and went! First celebrations came with Grandma bringing her up to mommy's school to parade around in her costume. She left the house in her lamb costume but in protest, threw up lunch all over it. So...out came the pink poodle costume. Yes...mommy had two Halloween costumes for her. Saturday morning she started off pretty misreable and only wanted to lay with mommy because her incoming teeth hurt so bad. Mommy didn't mind... But, before the end of the weekend, she was tough enough to be able to visit the cider mill, meet second-cousin Aubree, and go trick-or-treating with mommy, daddy, Papa and Nana who came to celebrate with her!
