The rest of October

Preparing pumpkins is hard work...



that really pays off!


Some cars we made from the Toledo Blade activities page that Mimi sent us:


Face-paint practice.


School Halloween parade.


Yes, Mommy made these.





So what's the deal here? What's this trick-or-treating all about?


Oh!

What we've been singing

First day of school!


New things to play on.


Wyck harvest festival.



Mt. Airy Village Fair.




Look what Mimi got me!


Look what Mommy got us!



Battle of Germantown.


Yeah, yeah. Gunfire. Whatevs. I'm busy with my sandwich.


Keeping up with old friends.


Linvilla Orchards




Egg hatching at the zoo.


Phew! Let's hang out at home today.

Louisa counting

Not bad for a kid who hasn't even started school yet...

What we did with the end of the summer

About those last couple of months...

Packing for Chicago.


Flying to Chicago.


Ah, now that's what I call summer.


Riding the 'el' to the Sears Tower. Now that's what I call Chicago.




Fun in Holland, MI.









And back to Chicago for "The Emperor's New Clothes" at the Shakespeare Theater.


Aw, what the heck. Since we're here let's ride the ferris wheel.


Still my little bundle...


..but already two years old!




It's good to have a younger cousin.




Bye-bye Chicago! See you again soon!
