Happy Halloween!




We were so lucky to have our cousin here for Halloween this year! Mommy got me a new Spiderman costume and Emerson said he wanted to be Thomas the train again. Trey brought 2 costumes, Batman and a Ninja. He decided he wanted to be a Ninja, so Aunt Jessy let Emerson wear his Batman costume. It was a little big, so Mommy and Aunt Jessy had to adjust it some. We were the 3 Super Heros! We went all around our block trick-or-treating. We kept going until our buckets got too heavy to carry (that's how you know when you're done!). Emerson was so tired that Uncle Carl had to carry him back to our house. It was an awesome night!

Treyman's Here!!!













Aunt Jessy, Uncle Carl, and our cousin Trey (we call him "Treyman") came to visit us for the week from NC. Trey is 4, so we all get along so well! We did so many fun things while they were here. On Wednesday they went with Emerson on his 1st preschool field trip. They drove together to Redding, CT to a pumpkin patch. It was so cold that day that is actually snowed! We've never seen snow in October before, and they rarely get to see it, so it made everyone happy (even though it was REALLY cold!). When I got home from school that day we were playing downstairs and Treyman ran into the spiral staircase in the kitchen and split open his head. Mommy and Aunt Jessy took him to Norwalk Hospital where they gave him 4 stitches! (I've been there twice myself!) The next day, Mommy said I could stay home from school to go to the Bronx Zoo. The zoo was AWESOME! We saw so many cool animals and got to go in the butterfly room. We even got to ride on the bug carousel. Friday was Halloween! I had a party at my school and when I got home we carved our pumpkins! This is the first year that I would took the "gook" inside! Mommy was so proud of me! After we finished our pumpkins, we got all dressed up in our costumes. It certainly was a full week! We can't wait for Aunt Jessy, Uncle Carl, and Treyman to come back to CT for Christmas!

Meeting the Newest Cousin!


This weekend we went to New Jersey so that Daddy could go out for the first day of duck hunting season. On Saturday when he got back from hunting, Aunt Autumn brought baby Averie over so we could meet her for the first time. She is only about 2 weeks old and soooo tiny. I was the first one to wash my hands so I got to hold her first! I didn't want to share her at all! Emma got to hold baby Averie next and then Mommy did too. She is so cute! I told my Mommy that I wouldn't mind having a baby sister! Emerson was asleep for most of the visit, but we woke him up before Aunt Autumn, Baby Averie, and Aunt Janice left. He really liked baby Averie too. He told Mommy that he wants TWO baby sisters! HA HA! Maybe one day...;) Mommy told us that though baby Averie was a cutie, there'd never be any babies as cute as hers!
