Baby's First Cold

It's a doozie...

This is Elijah every few minutes...

And if we try to cheer him, this is the best he's willing to offer, the patented "laugh cry"...

Grandma Blanche was over earlier in the week. That was a much happier day...

Come back, Grandma! ; )

The Pumpkin Patch

Thanks to Elijah, we're rediscovering the spirit of Halloween. Honestly, we think we might enjoy it more as parents than we did as kids, and that's saying a lot! We had so much fun picking out the perfect pumpkins, carving them up and roasting the pumpkin seeds. Elijah just watched...I'm sure he was wondering who's the kid here. ~Nasreen

Photos from Grandma Jean

What cute photos! Grandma Jean captured some wonderful moments...

...our little ladies' man ; )

I wish we could include a sound bite for these pictures so that you could hear him laugh and squeal as we stack the cups. Little did I know, back in the day, how much joy my Mai Tai cup collection from Wrigley Field would bring to our child. Funny! ~Nasreen
