Well, yep it is true Alli is walking. She just loves it and is so proud of herself. she gets the biggest smile on her face when she is done. The other day I was working out and i looked over and found her standing up with nothing around her to help her stand up, I quickly went and sat down and told her to walk to me and she hasn't really slowed down since. It is easy for her to get too excited and loose her focus and faceplant, so we still need to watch that, but she is a walking fool, and we are so proud of her.


I know that Halloween has been over for a little while, and I am finally posting some pictures. Pretty lame really, but I guess better late than never. Alli is in the middle, (she is a frog not a dinosaur). Her cousins that are the same age are on both side of her. Lexi on the left is a muchin from the Wizard of Oz, and Evelyn on the right is Little Red Riding Hood. They were just so cute.

Alli lovedHalloween this year. We went trick or treating and loved it. Alli got some of the candy, but of course, her parents had to help her eat it.

We had free pick up leaves day for the city. WE thought we could get by with a couple 13 gallon garbage bags. Well, as you can see it took a little more than a couple. The grand total 28 bags, therefore 364 gallons of leaves. Our legs and backs were really sore the next day. It sure looks better around this place.
