Fall 2010

I've been so busy lately, that I haven't been able to give the blog the attention it needs.
Let me tell you about Halloween. We were invited to go trick or treating with my colleagues' families. A group picture was taken, but I haven't seen a copy. I was super nervous about how Eve would do. Would she freak out? Would she hate it? How hard would it be on us lifting her in and out of her stroller. I was so worried I made myself feel a little sick. For no reason. She loved it. It took her about 4 houses to get the idea. At the first house, she cried when we left. It was like, "Why are we leaving?? They have candy here!!!" But after a while she was squealing with delight as we approached each house. It was hard work for Jim, lifting her in and out of the stroller. But she had a wonderful time.

All else is well. Eve has a stuffy nose that she can't seem to shake and has been waking up crying a lot more in the middle of the night. Motrin does the trick. I've begun to wonder if she is suffering from the same horrible leg cramps I got as a child. I'll have to ask my parents how old I was when I started getting them. I used to get them mostly at night. But other than that things are fine. I have her parent-teacher conference tomorrow.
