First Halloween





This is Leia's first Halloween so we thought we would start it off right. We took her down the road to Snead's Farm where they have fall weekend where they sell pumpkins, do tractor rides, kettle corn consumption, and hot cider. Leia loved it. Especially the chickens. She has actually learned to communicate with them using the "buck buck buck" chicken vernacular. There were cows there also whom she saluted with a "moooooo". With that done we picked out our pumpkin and headed home to put on Leia's Halloween costume. Pics above.

BBQ






The other day we had a BBQ at our house with friends and family attending. It was a great time. I even had 5 gallons of home brew for everyone to enjoy. Leia enjoyed all of the attention especially from Mary Cunningham who taught Leia how to shake hands.

Leia is doing exceedingly well. She runs all over the house climbing chairs, sofas, stairs, and even the dining room table She loves playing on the phone and has even accidently called 911 from my cell phone. Luckily I was able to catch the operator before firetrucks and ambulances were dispatched to our house.

Leia is also learning many new words and is making a strong effort to get her point across. Our next trip out of town will be Thanksgiving to our family in New Jersey.
