September through November 2011

The fall went pretty well for us....we were certainly busy with Madi playing middle school field hockey and Andrew playing travel soccer. Abby continued to grow and want to be a big kid...she is looking older as well...


Andrew and Madi are great siblings. Abby loves to mock Andrew when he plays all types of ball in the yard. Here she is with Andrew....


She also got a tricycle to be like the big kids...


This fall brought a ton of rain, a hurricane with a subsequent flood, an earthquake and finally snow in October...we survived them all without any real impact...but it sure was memorable...Here are some pics of the October snow...



We also participated in Trick or Treat in our neighborhood. Madi was pajama girl, Andrew was Ryan Howard and Abby was a Lady Bug. It was a cold night, so Andrew, Abby and I made it about 45minutes and Madi her friend went much later....Abby got the hang of walking up to doors, getting candy and saying thank you very quickly...it was a fun night.



Abby now can say two to three word combinations and is also starting to sing words to songs...it is cute.
We had a good Thanksgiving with everyone. The kids got to play football with their Grandpa and cousins...and Abby's shirt says it all ( Everyone is thankful for me )



We also had construction begin on our house finally....it has been a long time coming (it seems). It is exciting but will present challenges over the next few months. We are looking forward to a bigger living room, new kitchen and a real room for Abby...



Happy Holidays to all. The post will be the Christmas..hard to believe.
