halloween 2011.

MaryRyan loves loves loves halloween. we were a little unsure at first because she didn't want to put on her costume for school. we even made a ladybug costume for teddy! but she didn't go for it. As soon as I picked her up from school all she talked about was how excited she was to go home and get in her costume. she and brian went out trick-or-treating and they hit up a ton of houses. she LOVED it!!!!! fiona is wearing MR's old pumpkin costume. she got tired out from all the excitement and was fast asleep by 6pm.

can you tell they're sisters?

october 2011

3 year check up.

'at work' - playing at school with claire

loves to dance

nightly feeding with fiona

fiona and teddy!

MR had her 3 year check up on friday. she got a great report. she is 33 lbs (75 %) and 39.5 inches (95 %). she is really into 'helping out' with fiona. she has to help feed, bathe, you name it, she wants to be a part of it. Teddy is still her best friend. she let's fiona play with him, sometimes, which in her mind is a very big deal! she loves school and her new classmates. according to her teachers she is quite the flirt. she loves to chat up a storm, but she is also very shy if she doesn't know you. she has been like that since birth and will probably always be like that. it amazes us on how much she picks up. she imitates the way we talk, our mannerisms. it's pretty crazy!

on her way..

Fiona is bound and dertimned to crawl. She is getting sick and tired of MR taking all of her toys away so i'm pretty sure that is her motivation. she is up on all fours rocking so i'm thinking it should be soon.

hail!

happy household with all the wins the redskins are scoring! Maybe we'll have to make a trip to DC to see them :)
