Halloween

Yesterday was Hope's first Halloween. I'm not sure if she enjoyed it or not. I know that she definitely was not into keeping her duck hat on, and I hardly have any good pictures of her in full costume. Hopefully, she will learn to love this holiday, as it is my favorite. I'm also hoping that she will also learn to love dressing up, just like her brother, Shorty does.

Here are a few pics from trick or treat night.

Happy 21st, Caitlin!

Country House

I've mentioned a few times how much Evan and I enjoy spending time at my in-laws house, near the Catskills. Well this summer we had the good fortune of finding our very own country house, and our settlement will be this Monday. We are very excited to provide Hope with a city and country life. The house is an old farmhouse, built in the 1870's, and rests on 5 acres in close proximity to the Delaware River. Below are a few pictures of the land. I will post pics of the house once we close and there will be a new blog charting the progress of restoring our little country home.

Way to go Phillies!!

The Phanatic hat isn't perfected, yet, but it will be for when we win the World Series.

Canadian Thanksgiving

This past weekend we had the honor of celebrating our second (and Hope's first) Canadian Thanksgiving with our neighbors, and good friends, the Willsons. We feel very fortunate to live across the street these Canadian transplants. You can't beat two Thanksgiving meals in one year, aye!

Crunchy and Bouncy Time

Every morning between her first bottle of the day, and breakfast, Hope has "Crunchy and Bouncy" time. This is Short stack's favorite time of day because most of the crunchies fall on the floor for him to eat. It is also my favorite time, because for 15 minutes, each day, both my babies co-exist in harmony.

Here is Crunchy and Bouncy time captured on video.

BTW...the grunting and snorting is the dog and not me:)
