First Day at School

Merrill's first day of school was Monday, November 3.  She had a great day and really enjoys going!  Everyone loves her!  She isn't getting her naps in though, so by the time we get home, she's wiped out and I usually put her straight to bed.  Chris takes her in the morning and I pick her up in the afternoons.  We really are blessed to have found such a wonderful center.

Halloween

So the first of the wonderful holidays began with Halloween.  At school, it is tradition for the second grade teachers to dress as a 'group'.  Everyone is always excited to see what we are dressed up as.  This year, our theme was Super Heros.  I was Wonder Woman!  Later that evening, it was time to dress Merrill... She was an adorable little lamb!  We went to our 3 neighbors home so she could really partake in the full Halloween experience.  She had so much fun!  It was too cute when she would crawl, because her costume had a little tail that would wag everytime her bottom moved.  Also, her head piece was a tad too small... she has a massive head! We then had to dress her up in my Wonder Woman cape and crown... I have to say, she may have to be Wonder Woman next year... I think it suited her!

Long Time!




I'm sorry it's been so long since our last post... With me starting back to school, it's been a little crazy to say the least.  Merrill is attending a wonderful day care 3 days a week.  My mom is still keeping her on the other two days.  She's crawling, babbling away, pulling up and creeping along furniture.  She eats virtually anything and thinks your drink is hers.  We're having so much fun and looking forward to her 1st Thanksgiving and Christmas.
