Happy Halloween!!

It is amazing just how much a little one can change in 12 short months! Here we are on Halloween last year:

And then this year! I didn't really realize just how much Abby had grown until I looked at these two photos side by side...so CRAZY!!

Daddy and Abby

Silly Time!!

Then it was on to Gramps and Grandma D's for a little Halloween fun!

Abby helped Grandma get ready for Trick-or-treaters!

Next we headed to Mark and Stacey's house to Trick-or-treat with the girls!

Snug as a bug in the wagon between houses.

Abby LOVED Trick-or-treating! Once we got to the door, Abby wanted to go into each house and visit which was sooo funny! Then as we left she would wave or say "Bye!!"

It was a GREAT night (other than Abby getting a fever and winding up in bed with us...) and I can't wait for next year!!

Here you go! Our Lil' Stinker!!

Windy Out, Fun Inside

Oh October, I don't enjoy your rainy/windy days as much as I once did. At one point in my life a day like today meant hot cider or hot coco, a good book and a cozy blanket. But, now I have Abby and even though she enjoys a good book, it doesn't keep her attention for more than a few minutes. What to do, what to do....

Obviously, Abby was thinking the same thing (and Snuggles too):




So, I got out the Discovery Tent and Tunnel for the first time and she loved it! I'm guessing that this gift will get more than its fair share of use!!

Snuggles (and later Konig) seem to like it too!

It turned out to be a fun day after all! Abby makes me laugh and smile more that I ever thought possible! On another note, Abby learned to say "Cracker" today too. Imagine that, fun and learning all in the same day ;)

A Great Fall Weekend

We went to the Ann Arbor Children's Museum with Emily and the girls on Saturday and the cider mill and pumpkin patch today! Other than Abby having her first case of the Snarphs for the season, it was a GREAT weekend!
