Baby Yoga

Baby Jane is clearly a girl ahead of her time and wise beyond her years. She's already realized the physical, mental and spiritual benefits of yoga. Check out her awesome "downward dog". Trust me when I tell you she can hold this position for quite awhile, truly a sight to see.

Halloween stuffs

I'm tired and don't really have the energy to think of fun and exciting things to say, so here's my cute kids in their Halloween glory. Nothing too fancy or even super interesting this year. Connor insisted on being a clone trooper so you can't even see his face, but trust me when I say he's still good lookin'. Lily was Alice in Wonderland, which was so so cute. I kind of pushed this costume idea, mainly because I thought the color of the dress would be so pretty with her baby blues. And I was right! She was darling in every way. We carved pumpkins for Family Home Evening on Monday and because of the humidity, they were completely moldy and gross by Thursday, so next year we're carving the day before Halloween. But we all had fun and Connor and Darrin's pirate jack-o-lantern was pretty cool while it lasted. Lily and I went for a more traditional (and way way easier) smiley face. Maybe we'll be a little more ambitious next year...but I doubt it.

Lily did have her first sleepover on Halloween night. We went trick-or-treating with Sydney and then Lily slept over and watched the new Tinkerbell movie. Jon even got Lily to eat breakfast crepes the next morning, no small feat!! We're sending her over for peas next weekend. Apparently Lily was great and had a blast, but I couldn't handle the stress and found it difficult to sleep. Vanessa and I agreed that while Lily was completely ready for the world of sleepovers, I definitely WAS NOT. But maybe now that the band-aid has been pulled I'll be a little less of a freak....again, I seriously doubt it. Freak is my natural setting.
