Greetings!

After a few years of this Mommy-business, I'm starting to get worried I'm going to forget most of the funny stories we've lived through. I'd also like to keep friends and family members who live far away informed. I don't have a ton of time to update this, but hopefully I'll take a nap-time break a day or two a week and let everyone know what's going on.


Here is are some pictures of Annika, Grams, and Liddon at the Keene Pumpkin Festival.
















For Halloween, Annika was an Elephant. She wore that darn costume everywhere! Around the house, to the grocery store, to playgroup, to music class, to Gram's house, in the Halloween parade, and to bed. Along with those pink rubber boots, I'm not sure she needed any other fall clothing items! We actually do have a second child, Eric, who was born last June 8th. He's 5 months old now. Last weekend he had solid food for the first time. It was hard to tell what he thought of it, although it was the first time he sat in his Bumbo seat without crying.


Lately, Annika has been interested in helping out with Eric, which is both cute and unnerving. She "suggests" things for me to do with him (like, "Put Baby Eric in bouncy seat" or "Exersaucer") and she wants to pick him up and carry him (especially the time I put him in her Elmo chair! Was she mad about that!) Here are some pictures of things she can do with Eric.
