Dominic loves Halloween!

Two years ago, he was a pumpkin, and last year, he was a guitar. This year, Dominic got to be a big boy and choose his very own Halloween costume. Not that this comes as a surprise or anything, but Dominic chose to be Elmo!!! Of course, I approved!!!

We had fun Trick-or-Treating in our neighborhood, and both Daddy and Mama took turns carrying around our adorable, fuzzy little guy.

At Dominic's daycare, he got to play several fun games. I think he looks especially cute here, playing with the pumpkin bean bag toss.

Dominic got to play with one of his friends, Zoe, a.k.a. the lion.

Doesn't Elmo make the sweetest little face???

Elmo's treat after a long, hard day of being cute...

Four years of being a Mrs.!!!!

Four years ago today, Todd and I officially became husband and wife. It was a beautiful day then, and I was reminded of the weather with the lovely sun we also had today.

I love my husband very much, and I know that marriage is work. But, it is worth it to have your best friend nearby on a daily basis. I look forward to at least 50-60 more years of happy marriage in our future!!!!

Big boy, bigger little boy?

If the title of this post seems a little confusing, please let me explain.

Last night, Dominic got to meet his new cousin Ethan (or "Baby Ephan" as Dominic says) for the first time. By the way, how sweet is this photo?

Anyway, Dominic has been dethroned as the heavyweight baby champion for Henry grandchildren. When he was born, he weighed 9 lbs. 12 ounces.

Well, Ethan's birth weight (on September 28, 2010) was a whopping 10 lbs. 9 ounces. The nurses nicknamed him "Kindergartener."

Welcome to the family Baby E! Your weight is just fine with us!
