It's been a lovely, albeit chillier-than-expected fall. We've gone apple picking, picked out pumpkins, played in the leaves... and watched Iris start smiling at us! She's so beautiful when she gives us a big grin. She's gotten a cold recently, so she hasn't been sleeping quite as well (only giving me 3 hour stretches or so), but that's getting better.
October 31st was quite a day for us, happy and sad. While Iris and I went to her 2-month check-up at the doctor, Nick was on his way to his aunt's funeral. Iris got her first set of shots and was pretty cranky when she wasn't sleeping. I think I jostled her poor little thighs a bit. Poor sweetie. I dressed up Iris in a few Halloween outfits during the day (changes necessitated by her spitting up...). That did not make her any happier, alas.
This evening, we took both kids trick-or-treating. Felix was very proud of his skeleton costume. We dressed Iris up in Felix's old giraffe costume to show her off to the neighbors who've only met her once or twice. Felix kept wanting to go to "one more house," just like last year.
Felix: 3 yrs & Iris: 8 wks
