Blow Your House Down
She’ll huff, and she’ll puff.
ready for winter
Grandma had Nora try on all her winter hats, one after the other. I think there were two or three others before it dawned on me to run for my camera.
This is Halloween
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.
Trick or Treat
Princess Nora gets the Halloween basics down.
High Jump
You would think with all that buildup, there would be a little more height to Nora’s hops. You would be mistaken.
Fall
A new haircut and a giant pile of fall leaves.
and now I’m jealous
I had to do SOMETHING to keep the brush-averse Nora from looking like a rock chewer every day, so we went back to Cookie Cutters and got her an adorable baby-sized bob.
funereal
I decided the internet should no longer be denied the sight of Nora in her Victorian Gothic Funeral costume for Jillian‘s yearly costume birthday party. Some day I may write over on Two Loose Teeth about the dress I sewed from a 1960s pattern, or Blake’s goth/punk/kilt situation, or about how Sarah and I wowed everyone with our Bette Midler song stylings, but today is not that day. In the meantime, there are more photos of this glorious (gorious?) event on Facebook here, here, here, and here.
Hulking out
When you find a combination this good, you just keep going back to it.
