This is Halloween

Posted on October 31, 2009 by lisa

Between putting together costumes for Jillian‘s birthday party, Voices rehearsals, and starting all the homemade Christmas gifts, this was not the year for making Nora an incredible hand sewn Halloween costume. The princess outfit (complete with accessories) that my mom bought for Nora fit the bill perfectly, and she loved it. No bad-mom guilt necessary.
Also starring: Blake, in his goth funeral outfit, Jami and Alex (looking adorable as a tiger), and E–who became Alex’s favorite walking buddy.

Excited Face

I tried to get a video of Nora performing all her current tricks: Excited Face, snoring, saying “cheese,” and repeating the phrases “it’s complicated” and “super busted” (I have no idea). Alex makes a very supportive–if sometimes confusing–audience.

Who doesn’t like to cuddle during a movie? With some snacks?

Who is in charge, here?

My mom brought over a new swimsuit for Nora while I was tending Alex, and before I knew what was happening she was wearing it, then she and Alex were dragging out the pool, Alex was filling it with the hose, and they were hopping in.
