Thanksgiving

We had a really lovely Thanksgiving - Mimi, Pop Pop, and Aunt Heather came down for a visit, and we had a great dinner with Aunt Heather G and Uncle JR, Great Grandma, and my friends Melanie and Dan from Finding Nemo. The Maxwells stayed for the following week and kept the wee ones with them at Disney World while Jason and I commuted back and forth between jobs. I have pics to post, which shall be soon! (They are on the other computer)... coming soon to a theater near you...

The Pumpkin Patch

Last weekend we visited a pumpkin patch (well, the kind of pumpkin patch available to us in Florida - a church parking lot!), and had a great time picking out pumpkins with Aunt Heather and Uncle JR. I think Aunt Heather has more pictures... I had a little trouble (and I think this could be the story of our lives for a while) trying to hold Chloe, give her a bottle, change positions when she got fussy, and take pictures... Whew!

Chloe playing Dress Up


My mom saved several outfits of Heather's and mine, and we've been able to play dress up a bit with Chloe in our old clothes!

Hatching Butterflies

Jason found a butterfly habitat and decided the time was right for hatching some butterflies! Clearly, we didn't have enough to do at our house...




Cooper had a blast learning how caterpillars spin their cocoons and turn into chrysalids (or "kris-lits"), and then hatch to become "bootiful buh-er-flies!" Here are some photos of our release party:

Trying to do our best to combat any jealousy or resentment to Chloe getting all the attention, Cooper got to hang out with Mimi and Pop Pop at Disney World!
