The Big Sleepover

Halloween in Park Slope is grand, so Aidan, Chloe and Grandmother joined us in Brooklyn. It ended up being a big, crazy sleepover event - even Jonah joined us! Here's just a little taste... enjoy.

Jack Halloween 01

Jack was a Knight for halloween. I know this isn't the best picture of Jack in that costume, but I broke the camera in the middle of trick or treating and this will just have to do.
PS. No, Jack didn't actually eat any candy.

Eli on stump

After getting some party supplies for Jack's upcoming 1st Birthday (hence Eli wearing a little Birthday hat) we went for a walk through Prospect Park.

Jack uses a Spoon! - The video

We just handed Jack a spoon and he went to town!

Wonderful video of how he got this messy to follow.

Our Angel!

We Love Aunt Virginia!
And of course Aidan, Chloe and Harris too!!

We interrupt this blog for a day off!!!

That's right! We went "kid-free" this weekend from Saturday Morning to Sunday Afternoon!! All thanks to an angel we know named Virginia. She amazingly took on two additional children this weekend and did it all with a smile on her face and a relaxed attitude. We were very impressed and will be forever in her debt.
THANKS SOOO MUCH VIRGINIA!!! YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!

Can you believe this nap took place in Brooklyn?!?

Eli and Jack on "The Train"

Eli started pretending he was on a train, so of course Jack wanted a ride too.

Slice of Life, October 2010

Just an everyday moment, that I think captures a little slice of our life.

Jack falls asleep on swing

Jack was in need of a nap, but also in need of some swing. He ended up combining them!

Jack with the Gator Walker

Yes, Jack is on his way to walking!! As you can see we are all excited about it.

Just a great little pic of the boys doing their thing.

Jack climbing!!

Here's where he started!


Here's where he ended up!!

I left Jack at the bottom of that climb and without ANY assistance from me, he pulled and wiggled and squirmed himself up each and every step and eventually stood atop the slide victorious and acting very nonchalant about it.

Oh boy, we'll have to keep an eye on him!

Jack lovin' the swing!

Yes, Jack is really coming into his own when it comes to swinging!
