Off the plane at 3pm, trick-or-treating by 6pm - the laughter of the kids running from house to house made it all worth it. Happy Halloween!

Mady was a trooper this week - she put up with us dragging her through Disney when all she wanted was a good nap, a place to crawl, and a warm bottle.
She finally found some joy with Daddy in the UK in Epcot.

Two of Mady's favorite activities: 1) standing and 2) looking out the window.

Dylan can now make himself and his sister peanut butter sandwiches all by himself. Brilliant. This allows me to actually, you know, eat lunch myself.

Bring it, Winter.
