I am the Walrus (Ladybug, Shrek, Witch...actually)

Lennon has perfected the crawl.  She moves quite quickly now.  Her favourite things to crawl for are still the curtains but also the lamp plus cord.  Keeps me on my feet!  She's also been sleeping a little bit better.  Last weekend we had three nights in a row with no wake ups!  Wow!  The rest of the week she had a wake up here and there and another full night.  It's still very inconsistent, which is the frustrating part.  Just when you think there's a pattern or a corner has been turned, it all changes!

Last weekend we went to Cobb's Corn Maze with our friends Jerry and Danielle and their little guy, George.  It was cold!  It felt like winter out.  We walked through the maze even though the corn was barely knee high (doesn't make for a very good maze!).  There are lots of games and stuff there too, more for bigger kids though.  It was so cold we had a hot chocolate, took some pics of the kids and then hit the road.

This week we had a little Halloween party with our mommy group.  Our regular weekly gathering except all the kids were dressed in their costumes.  There were four ladybugs, Lennon being one of them!  It was very cute, but very difficult to get a group picture!  Just about all of the babies are on the move now.  

Friday was Halloween.  Lennon was just the most adorable little ladybug!  Fred's office had a costume contest and they had a lunch for everybody so I dressed up in my witch costume and took my ladybug over there.  Everyone in the office except one person was dressed up!  Fred actually won the contest with his Shrek costume!  Lennon, surprisingly, wasn't scared by any of the costumes, not even dad in a large green mask.  She just stared and looked around at everyone.

Halloween evening we went for an early walk and then we were home to hand out candy.  Last year we only had 1 kid at the door so I wasn't expecting much but still wanted to be prepared!  We ended up having 22 kids to the door.  Fred donned his Shrek mask to greet them at the door.  He only scared one little boy!

We are currently getting our first snowfall.  Well, besides that freak snowstorm we had in September!  It feels so cold.  I guess winter is coming:(  Time to start thinking about a warm winter holiday!?!
