Halloween!

Well, we didn't take Natalie trick or treating in the neighborhood, but we went to Zoolie Ghoulie at the Henson Robinson Zoo with Rod and his kids. Natalie was a Unicorn this year, and loved to "fly" (running with her arms spread out).

She also got to trick or treat at the retirement home adjacent to her daycare this morning with the rest of her class friends! Here are a few photos of our little Unicorn (and a bonus shot of Natalie dressed as the late Steve Jobs!):

Best Buds!

Nickie took this shot of Natalie and Pumba. Love that smile!

Pumpkin Picker!

We took Natalie to the Apple Barn in Chatham last Sunday to pick out a few pumpkins. We had fun examining all of the possible choices and picking out a few treats from their bakery!

Talking to Grammie

Natalie often talks on her "phone" (a book light that she adopted as her cell phone) to her Grammie. It's interesting, because she seems to be talking to Grammie a lot since my mom passed in September. It makes me happy and sad all at the same time, but I like to think that she is really talking to her.

I told Natalie to tell Grammie that I say hi and I miss her next time she talks to her. Hope my mom got the message one way or the other.

Another cute quote

While driving to daycare the other day, Natalie exclaimed "bus!!" (she has an obsession with spotting school buses). I saw in my rear view that a bus had passed us, and replied "good eye, Natalie- daddy didn't see it!" She immediately said "me either". I got a good laugh out of that one.

Silliness leads to sleepiness!

Just a quick quote

Nickie told me that on their way home from daycare, the sun was in Natalie's eyes. Natalie said (to the sun) "leave Natalie alone!!"
