Standing Up

Olivia has been pulling herself up for a while. Here is one of the first times we caught her standing up in her crib...

Natalie & Rita

Lots of times when I have to go back to work in the evenings for leadership events, I take Natalie with me. We had a leadership party this week to celebrate that homecoming went well. Natalie had fun with my students playing red light, green light, eating pizza & ice cream, and watching the Giants game on the big screen. Natalie made friends with Rita, one of my students, and they drew each others pictures on the white board.

Halloween Parade

I got to sneak out of work for a few hours on Thursday to go to the Halloween Parade & party at Natalie's preschool.

The preschoolers trick-or-treated through the K-8 classrooms. My cute cheerleader

Peek A Boo

Yummy!

Baby cookies are so yummy...
...but you have to eat them with your clothes off because they are a little bit messy too :)

The Piano is Fun Again

Remember this... ...it's Natalie playing with her piano after her first Christmas. Well, Olivia loves the piano now too. Especiallly because she can do her favorite thing with it. Pull herself up. But, she also likes banging on it and bouncing to the music. You know? The actual purposes of the piano :)

Nana is the best!

Natalie took this one of Nana & Olivia. Nana found these princess crowns for Natalie to decorate.

Little Witches

Natalie's friend Bryana came over to play this morning. One of the things the girls did to keep busy was putting on these little witch hats. They were dancing around in them. Too cute!

We call her "Sassy"...

...for obvious reasons!
