Autumn Leaves

Our Halloween

We had a lot of fun dressing Matthew up for Halloween, and he was a really good sport with wearing his costume. I made a hat and a scarf to complete the Harry Potter look, and I think they added a lot to it.




Matthew even seemed to get into the spirit of Halloween when we let him get his hands on a Snickers.


We hope your Halloween was just as fun!

The Boy Who Lived

I had a lot of fun making Matthew's Halloween costume. We got the idea when my niece tried these glasses on Matthew to see if they fit.

Done!

Well, here it is! It's been functional for several weeks now (four to be exact), but now we've checked all the lingering to-do's off our list. Hooray!

Our Little Eater

Matthew has started eating rice cereal. He seems to enjoy it. He likes to put his hands in his mouth with every bite, so meal time gets pretty messy!

We have the kitchen mostly finished - we only have one little piece to screw in - but I figure that if I force myself to wait to post the pictures until it's totally finished then I'll be more motivated to get it done.

Good thing he's not walking yet...

We're Getting Close...

The last two weeks have been very busy, but today we reached another milestone - countertop installation! The workers were here for five hours and, voila, countertops. We're now working on putting the doors on and other finishing touches, but we are officially in the home stretch.
