Annual Halloween Party

This year, the Giard's hosted the Halloween party. I wasn't sure I'd be able to make it, with a newborn, so my last minute costume was my vampire costume I was supposed to wear to the Vampire Bunco that I didn't get to attend. Kevin went as Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I absolutely loved my mom and dad's costumes-The Situation and Snookie from Jersey Shore. Chad was Dr. Funkenstein and Molly was Betty Boop. I'll let you guess the rest... When I left Nadia with Heather and Billy for the hour I was gone, I told them to call me if she stopped crying, because Nadia is quite the crying diva. Sure enough, she cried the whole time I was gone. Poor angel! Thanks Giards for a wonderful party, as always!

Side note-the party was actually busted long after I left, and of course, the Situation tried to make a run for it. I miss all of the fun ;)

Halloween Slumber Party

We were lucky enough to have Ella & Nathan spend the night with us the night of the annual Halloween Party. While the adults over 21 went and partied it up at the Giard's house, Heather & Billy watched Ella, Nathan, Hayden, Rowan, Nadia, and even Gracy and Landry for a bit at my house. They ate pizza, played Wii, sword fought, and even made cupcakes to take to the party.

Here are some of my favorite pics of Nadia during her second month (weeks 5-8). Love her!

Little Boy Blue

Kevin was lucky enough to chaperone Hayden's Kindergarten class field trip to the Elgin Christmas Tree Farm. I asked Kevin to take a lot of pictures, since I couldn't go. Hayden got to ride a school bus for the first time, and he had a blast. Kevin did, too. And, mama got her pictures :)
