The Halloween photo opps begin

Dancing with funfit on stage. Listening 10% of the time....

Yeah, she was a cute minnie mouse today
Practice, no the ears will not stay on long...A halloween witch is more suitable : )
Since Caroline is attached to me in the bjorn, she's often not in photos. I wore the dinosaur outfit outside the bjorn and made felt feet that I pinned up my pant leg. I decided I should be "prehistoric" as more and more grays dapple my head.

My kid loves to dance, she made a B-line for the stage....

Mommy braves (really) the girls on her own
for a morning out with the SSC...

A family day in St. Michaels, MD


Halina talks a lot, and more and more words are becoming clear.
Often she'll watch Winnie the Pooh,

a classic film when I'm feeding Caroline and owl seems to be her favorite.
Turtles are also a big hit.
Maryland Crabs at the Maritime Museum

A fall display, drawing with our new window markers.

Dinner out at a local Mexican restaurant.
We have to start by 5PM to make it through dinner with the "wild thing".


Sisters: Caroline at 5 weeks



Halina counts, sort of....

My how time flies... Caroline is 1 month +

Over the past two weeks we've had several close friends visit.
Erin flew from NC and spent 2 full days taking care of us.
Here are some of the photographs she took, I wish we had one all together, but that will have to wait for our next visit to Wilmington......

Halina LOVES her sister and has become increasingly aware of her.
She often goes over and pets her head,
pionts out her "eyes" and "nose" and will take her hand.
It's so incredibly sweet.

Guenevere & Mike visited and brought Bones,
much to Halina's delight.
Halina calls him "Bo" and had to be next to him every second.
