He's just started doing this, the making noise with toys and stuff. That's a pretty advanced skill, actually, so I'm impressed with Annabel all over again.

The other day she was doing it with puzzle pieces off the couch arm rests.

I have no idea where she got it from.

Cutie princess Kara!

Have put Lily in her costume. About to go get Daddy. Must make pictures happen. Overwhelmed with cute. Even more than the babykittyhead combo.

If I still had a pair of cat ears, I'd throw on my Schrodinger's Equation shirt again and re-use the costume no one ever gets.

annabel wishes to be a top gun. parents are so slow.

I sent DH and email about what I was where gmail ads - talk about britany spears pictures. umm...eww.

Em did a little trick or treating in my office today. She met a lion, a dinosaur and Frankenstein!

Oh my!

That would explain the Kenny Loggins CDs I keep finding around the house.

Em was the bestest ! now I need to go to work.

Pictures of all buffista babies by 945pm. I demand it

Franny did a bit of trick or treating at daycare (for healthy treats, oh well) but I didn't want to send her to school in her costume, so she just wore a pumpkin hat.

yes, there will be pictures. eventually.

That'd be something, if the girl whose mom won't climb a ladder grows up to be a fighter pilot.

When Dylan gets home from work, we're going to put her in her costume, take pictures, and go to our immediate neighbors' houses for trick-or-treating. That's enough Halloween for her age, IMO.

ETA and then I'm meeting the only one of my IRL CPs who can make this week's meeting to discuss whether I can actually ignore part of the advice Mary Balogh gave me. She gave me brilliant advice, on the whole, but I feel like if I followed all of it, my lovely Jack would be way too much of a Samwise Gamgee type. And while I love Sam, Jack was never meant to match up with that particular trope.
