Snow has Arrived!!


After a week of being cooped up in the house with a sick child and a weekend of cold rain / snow we don't have much to report this week. Kaitlyn's finally pretty much back to her old self and we've been quite creative with our indoor activities this week to help with the "cabin fever" I think we both have. We had our first official snowfall of the year this morning and I'm sure there's plenty more to come!!


Thanks to Mimi and Papa we've spent lots of time playing with our early Christmas present and learning all about Baby Jesus.....

Book Worm



Not too much exciting to report from last weekend. It's definitely starting to feel a lot like winter these days so we spent most of the weekend indoors trying to stay warm. I did get a video of our little book worm when she wasn't looking. She LOVES her books these days. Don't mind the no shirt - she had on a white shirt and we had ziti for lunch so I striped her down and didn't get a chance to redress her before she dashed off into her room to read :)

Congratulations Aunt Lindsey!!!

We have BIG news - Aunt Lindsey is engaged!!! We were so thrilled that Kaitlyn spent the afternoon running up and down the hallway in excitement!! Congratulations Aunt Lindsey and soon to be "Uncle" Alan!! Yeah!!

Aside from all of the engagement excitment we had lots of fun this weekend celebrating Halloween. Friday morning Kaitlyn and I met up with our pals Betsy and Avery for some "trick or treating" in downtown Ann Arbor. Yes, the girls were a bit young but the bumble bee and kitty cat were quite a cute pair :) and it was a beautiful day to stroll downtown. After being straped in for a bit we took the girls to the Children's Museum so they could run free for awhile. It was a great morning!



Then we put our costume back on Friday night for some chili and trick or treating - well actually we just had our friends come visit us. The Bumble Bee got to hang out with her pals the dinosaur (aka Jake), Buzz Lightyear (aka Bradley), and once again, the adorable kitty cat (aka Avery). It was a fun treat to have everyone over and "share" all of our toys :)






Both Friday and Saturday was beautiful Fall days so we spent some time outside playing in the leaves, playing with the big red ball, and waving to Dadda as he mowed the lawn....
