long time no post: fall update

here, finally, are the halloween photos...my sweet girl went as a vampire and my sweet boy went as a skateboarding corpse.


he was much perturbed when i told him he couldn't actually skateboard in the DARK!!!! so he just dressed the part.


here's his sweet face yesterday, on the day that he turned 11!

this is the cake his sister made for him....
the most disturbing part is that he seems to be growing .5 inches by the week...he might be taller than me by christmas!
