Pumpkin Patch, Take Two

Went to a pumpkin patch this afternoon with Grey and Grey's friend Helena. Awesome weather, good pumpkins and donuts for everyone.

Poconos Getaway

Back to back trips for the fam! This past weekend we went to the Poconos with Ashlyn, Uncle Andrew and Aunt Jackie. Great vacation!

Poconos

Dancin'

Babies apparently love music. Here's Raina dancing to her favorite song. She's got a ways to go if she wants to be competitive in the field though... this kid is raising the bar.

Rochester Vacay

Mom, Dad and little V spent a long weekend in Rochester with Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Jon. Perfect Fall weather.

We saw Aunt Jan, Uncle Jek, Lis and Dave. Uncle Dan came by and made us breakfast. Awesome.

Pics from the trip .. . .. .

Dinner Time

Raina enjoying some mango and cereal.

Aunt Kimmer!

Aunt Kimmer and Granny Diane were in town for a visit. Raina loved the extra attention and was happy to share her latest accomplishment: giving kisses!

Apple Puffs

Raina loves these flavorless apple puff things. Here's a video of her gobbling some. We need to work on slowing down the rate of consumption clearly.

Tutu!

Mom playing dress up with little V. The latter sporting a yellow tutu.

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Raina wanted to wish Grandma a very happy birthday. We were a touch slow in airing said wishes. Better late than never I'm told.

Without further delay, Raina, Mom and Aunt Kimmer wishing Grandma Sue a happy birthday.

Pumpkin

Raina tried pumpkin this week. She was more or less a fan. Well, actually we mixed it with pears and sweet potatoes so maybe she didn't know the difference.

Accident Report

Action Taken: Ice; TLC; Hugs;

Heh. Too cute. Ray's first accident report from day care.

Babies-sittin'

Mom and Dad watched Ashlyn on Saturday while Uncle Andrew and Aunt Jackie went on a date. We borrowed Crick and Kate's double-wide. Ashlyn, taking in the sights. Raina, too pooped to party.

Runnin'

Raina, Mom and Dad go for a run on Sunday morning... which is really just an excuse to get coffee on the way back. Raina was pleased with her Fall getup, clearly.

Bathtub w/ Momma

Mom decided to get in the tub w/ Raina the other night. Everyone had a blast.

Raina still hasn't eaten the rubber ducky, but it's only a matter of time given the amount of time she's devoting to the task.

Happy Hour

Happy Hour with Kate and Grey last Wednesday. Grey showed Raina how he walks. Raina lounged on Kate for a while, then crashed on Mommy.

The Wave

Raina has learned how to wave hello and goodbye. Mostly it consists of her slowly raising her arm up and then letting it down. Occasionally we see a little hand movement. It's officially our new favorite trick.

Mo' Scootin'

$300 in stuffed animals, toys, blocks, blankets, jumperoos and whatnot. Still we go after the water bottle. Babies. Anyway, full up crawl devolves in to a scoot.

Pulling Up

Eventful week. Dad put Raina in her crib for a minute to clean up the sink and walked balk in to find her pulling up on the crib rail. Guess we should've lowered the mattress a few weeks ago...

And some pictures ...

Raspberry

Raina learned how to blow raspberries from her friend Grey. Now it's all raspberries all the time.

Scootin'

Raina start scootin' a few feet at a time this week. Caught her on video chasing Dad's water bottle this weekend.
