Time Flies...


especially when you're busy having a second birthday party and being sick. I know I have been slacking on the blog, but sometimes that is just how it goes! You can see the pictures from Iris's birthday party (hosted by the lovely Taylor family) right here. Iris caught a little cold the day she turned two, which was kind of sad, but we still had a really good time. I think opening present and eating cake was a great distraction from the sniffles.

Just to get us caught up to the present day, Halloween was yesterday and even though we all got dressed up, our Trick or Treating ambitions were thwarted by a flat tire. Thankfully, Iris is still too young to really "get" the whole thing, so she couldn't have cared less. She probably did wonder why we dressed her up like a cat and then just wandered around our apartment building aimlessly for a half hour or so, but when you're two, you don't question these things too much.

I'm super happy with the Halloween pictures this year. Definitely some keepers there! I think the one in this post is my favorite, but I've already changed my mind 10 times today, so I expect it will change again. I'm a woman, so it's my prerogative! The only other thing to say about Halloween is that when I asked Iris what the kitty said, she replied with an emphatic, "Oh yeah!" I promise, she knows the correct response... but she has started giving us silly answers sometimes. It's a fun developmental milestone!

There are more Halloween pictures at Iris's Smug Mug page, so you can peruse at your leisure and order any prints you want. Because everyone needs an Iris-kitty on their mantel!
