Grayson celebrated her first Halloween today. Our great neighbrors, the Bensons, came over for some pictures before the trick-or-treating began. Grayson enjoyed watching Nash, the blue monster, run around and play with Herbie. We then took Grayson on a short stroll around the neigborhood to say hi to some other neighbors. She quickly fell asleep and got a good nap in well we handed out candy. I might be partial but I thought she was the cutest pumpkin on the block!
Grayson took part in her first Halloween tradition this past week. She helped Aunt Kristen, who was visiting from Michigan, carve a pumpkin. I wasn't home when they did it but they told me that Grayson just loved sitting on the table watching Kristen carve. Kristen did a special pumpkin in honor of G's first Halloween. She carved an owl sitting on a tree with the letter G growing out of it. Grayson's nursery theme is owls so it's perfect. It's a good thing that Kristen was here for the first Halloween because if mom had been carving, it would have most likely been a few triangles and a really horrible looking mouth. I am going to have to start stepping up my game now that I have a baby I guess! Enjoy the pics!
Welcome to 0ur blog! Up until now, it's been me, Stephen and Herbie make three, but over the past couple years, we have been wishing, hoping and praying to expand the Polanski clan - in June, we are on track to become four! For all of the fun that we had in our 20's, we have no doubt that our best times are still to come. We hope you enjoy following our journey here!
