Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

We have been so excited for Orli’s first Halloween.  We dressed her as a dinosaur – a triceratops to be specific.  She was adorable.

The business end of the costume

Orli’s school had a Halloween parade on Friday morning and we tagged along as the papparazzi.

Apparently it is fairly tiring to be a celebrity in a stroller parade.  Orli was quite tired by the end.

Orli’s aunt Missy sent an adorable post-parade outfit.

Can we go home now?

Aunt Missy and Uncle Mike also sent some hockey gear to get little O ready to support the reigning Stanley-cup champs this season.

Go Hawks!

We also took Orli to a pumpkin patch last week.  We had fun taking lots of photos and picking out a pumpkin (we got a cool striped orange and white variety like in this picture.  Orli seemed content to chew on her giraffe and hang out in our arms.

Visit to the pumpkin patch

Orli had the luxury of participating in her first daddy-driveway-haircut experience.  Yes, I am Jeff’s highly talented hair stylist…

Grandpa Michael came for a visit this weekend and had a great time playing with Miss O.

We discovered this weekend that Orli loves to play with the bread bag on the kitchen counter.  Who knew that baby toys could be so simple?

Orli continues to master sitting up unassisted.  She can look around now without losing her balance, but she still falls backwards every once in a while.

We went out for pizza with a bunch of friends last weekend.  It is always fun for the adults and the little ones to get together.

I hope you all had a great Halloween.  We had more trick-or-treaters this year than any other year since we’ve been in Corpus Christi.
