The beginning of November

Ready for a walk....gotta bundle up it's getting cold and it's November.

Check out the bow in her hair....Cute!
Yeah I have jeans on. There the best and are hand me downs from my sister and cousin Kate.
Made my day...we got chickadees at out bird feeder.
Snack time with Dad.
Digging for the goodies in her Halloween bag. I think Pat ate the lollipop and I had the peanut butter cup....she'll forgive us later for sneaking those from her :)
"Trick or Treaters Stop Here"... and we did!
Swinging baby at the park.

The sweet park we go to in town.

Happy Halloween from the Cow and Penguin :)

On Friday night Holderness School had a photographer taking pictures of all the students in their costumes so we were able to get in on the action...FUN.

This is Caroline...she is a freshman day student at Holderness and she is so great with kids...Mabel adores her and they play a lot when we go to dinner. Thanks Caroline. Dad dressed up as Rex Quan Do!

Long Weekend!

Holderness gave us a much needed long weekend last weekend and we were all smiles!

Swing of things!

Lately we are really getting into the swing of things....here are some pictures from the "swing"

Hannah watching the racking of many leaves...she loves hanging out outside, but who doesn't really.
Mabel helping Opi rack the front yard...and running through the leaves.
Setting up "camp" in all parts of the house.
A beautiful morning with Dad home...another keeper.
Sacked out. Mabel plays hard...especially when we go to school for dinner...she loves it and loves seeing everyone there, her shyness has gone right out the window and she's hamming it up, the key is to get her to eat while we are there. You think when I put her in bed tonight she would have sacked right out but no she stayed up playing in her crib another hour...what does she do in there in the dark? She only has George, Baby and Mouse with her? Party time I guess! It's rare I get a picture of her sleeping but I have been shorting her naps so I go in a wake her up these days and couldn't resist taking this picture :)
I've been thinking about how I really need to do a blog just on Binky's as a kind of Ode to them. My girls are pretty much the only babies I know that use them. Both my girls love them. The both pretty much just sleep with them at this point which is great and since Hannah can get it into her mouth herself now we are doing really well. You should see the two of them maneuver them in there mouths....very tricky.

Going for a stroll. Mabel was about Hannah's age when we got this stroller...WOW time flies...hold on tight!

These are Mabel pictures - she sure is getting better.

Beautiful wood paneling and cabinets

Fall in New Hampshire

I had my own little photo shot with the girls yesterday and it went well but I took a lot of pictures and I didn't get one with both girls looking at me...next time, maybe for the Christmas card.

Bella Dog
Mabelina
Peek a boo
Does Bella look a little annoyed in the picture :)

Well here is one with both girls looking at the camera....must have been the red blinking light.

Hannah B.
Mabel looks so in control here...which of course she is...she really wanted a picture with the stroller and baby....she set it up.

I think she ate a bunch of leaves, you know where this one is headed.

If I was only where Bella was I would have gotten it. Bella has so much pull in this Family :)
To cute to pass up...Mabel helping Hannah get some leafs off her face.

Ok Ok Yeah - Video

Mabel says this to me all the time these days untill she gets what she wants.
