Happy Halloween

We went to the ghetto mall tonight in Mefa for the Halloween Kiddie Disney Cahn-cet (concert in boston/mefa speak). :-)

Grammie and the Miskell's joined us too. I promise these are the last photos of Abby the Chicken.

(some photos by Grammie Jeannie)

Standing up

Sorry for the low quality picture from my mac computer camera but I wanted to capture the proud expression on her face. Abby is really into standing lately. Thanks to her cousin Ivy Jane for giving her this baby sized table to hold onto. She is lovin' it.

Runaway Chicken

Here's a halloween sneak preview. I don't know if Abby is down with being a Chicken...

Blog Reader Role Call

I often wonder who is reading our Blog. Some folks out there (you know who you are) tell me they have seen our blog but never comment.

If you are reading and lurking... now is the time to speak up. I'm taking attendance, Bueler? - pause - Bueler?.

Welcome to the LifeofCarrie Role Call - Leave a comment below and let me know who is out there (no login necessary).

Raspberries, Babbles & Laughs

Dinner has been fun lately.

Bathtime with Abby

Time for the big girl tub, no more baby baths.

Orange stripes

Thanks to Grammy Jeannie for Abby's new halloween shirt :-)

Lately it has been a challenge to take a photo of Abby without her tongue sticking out of her mouth. I decided to play along and my mom snapped this photo.

Abby news of the week: Last night I was sitting on the couch with Tighe and Abby was playing with her toys on the floor. I wasn't really paying attention to her much but the next minute I looked down towards her and she was standing up holding onto the couch. I'm glad we finally decided to drop her crib down the other day, don't want her to climb out and fall!

Purple Polka Dots

Jess and Josh are almost done with their Kitchen. I stopped by their place today to check out the progress. Abby was totally impressed with their home improvement skills.

Jess, Carolyn, Abby and the fabulous new kitchen



Abby in her snazzy outfit. Those stockings are called 'baby legs' and they are thigh-highs!


Abby decided she wanted a sip of 'dad juice' (which is what Aidan has decided to call beer).

Girly Friends

Here is some action packed Abby and Gwen footage.

Gwen is Abby's neighborhood friend and totally cute. You can't see it very well in this photo but she has precious chubby cheeks and fire red hair.

Kicking mom in the head

Expression

I like Abby's evil expression in this photo. Ignore me in the photo please, I'm in my pajamas.

Visiting Great Granny

Abby and I went to visit her Great Granny today. She's being taken care of by some great people at the overlook rehabilitation center. Lets hope she continues to improve and be able to return home soon.

Pillow fight with Abby

A few more from Lincoln's party

I just thought these were cute ones of Abby so I couldn't resist posting. Abby was wearing this little retro-mod party dress that we got at old navy. I really can't believe that it was warm enough to wear this sleeveless summer dress in OCTOBER.

Lincoln turns 1

Abby's cousin Lincoln turned 1 this past weekend and Kathy had a big party for him. Tighe, Abby and I made the trip down to Bristol. Here's some photos of Abby in on the party action.

Kathy let Lincoln dive into his own cake - in the shape of a wooden stacking block.


Party girl with dad

Abby with her pointed hat


Don't pay attention to the bad hair day I'm having - I was wearing my red sox cap earlier in the day.

Big smile with dimples and all

crawling baby

Abby is on the move lately. Check out this video. At the end she even does her impression of the Blair Witch Baby.

Alseep

My Dad's lap is so comfy I'll just take a nap here.

Shrinking doll series - October episode

From March^
From October ^

Is the doll shrinking?

Extreme Close up

Just think this is a funny picture.

Snuggling with my Auntie

Its the best when Abby gets in her snuggle mood. I know I'll miss this someday.

Weekend in Chelmsford

This post is a little out of date but I've stolen some photos from my mom's computer. I think Tighe took a few of them so this doesn't qualify as true plagiarism.


Here's my uncle Bobby - who turned 50 years old :-) We were celebrating his birthday this nice Sunday in September.

Abby chilling out in the port-a-high-chair. I love how you can see her chubby cheeks here.


Mattie with 4 kids. Kathy Gavin (Mattie's wife) was my sisters very close friend who was pretty much like a second sister to me. I think Mattie would be happy to have another baby girl ;-). Gavin's kids are 7 now and growing up way too fast.


Snuggling with not-so-little Lincoln.

Gotta love how lance has red frosting all over his face in this photo and doesn't care a bit.
