Xmas 2009
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!
We had a wonderful Christmas break, though it was shorter than we usually stay in NH, since Mommy is so close to her due date and needs to save her vacation time for when the baby comes. But we got to spend time with family and friends and celebrate.
Miles had a great Christmas morning and Santa was very good to him. He got the 3 things he wanted most, a remote control helicopter (like Grant has), and Frosty with a snowflake, and a fish tank!
We also made a a trip to Ski Haus so that we could all get ski boots and Miles and Daddy got the works so they can go skiing at Mt Southington! Miles was excited to get his red boots and red helmet!
Enjoy the pictures!

Thanksgiving through December...
Some of the things we've done since Thanksgiving....
We weren't able to make it to the Breakfast with Santa that we usually go to, but thankfully Santa came to Miles school for their winter carnival. Miles is getting really excited for Christmas to get here. We have a new family member, Criddler, the Elf on the Shelf. He came to us at Nanna's house around Thanksgiving time and every day he watches over Miles and flies back to the North Pole at night to tell Santa is Miles has been good or not. I think he can feel pretty confident that he has made it to the "nice" list this year.
Along with the excitement of Christmas it also means we are that much closer to meeting the new baby sometime at the end of January (or as Mommy keeps saying, the beginning of February). Miles is going to make a great big brother and has already been helping out so much, especially when Mommy hasn't felt too good, or is feeling tired. We all can't wait for the baby to arrive (we'll start a new blog for the baby when it gets here, including the progressions of Mommy's expanding belly!).
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all!!!

Halloween Night!
Halloween Night here in New Britain can get crazy so we were prepared for a lot of Trick-or-Treaters since it fell on Saturday this year. Miles was much more interested and excited to sit on the steps and hand our candy than go and get any for himself. He commented on everyone's costume and how nice it was or how the girls had pretty princess dresses. He's just too cute!
It ended up starting to rain shortly before 8pm and we only got a few kids after that- in the past we've had kids come to the door as early as 5 and as late as 10! Needless to say we have some candy leftover, but I'm sure Daddy won't have a problem taking it over to the headquarters and disposing of it in the few days left till the election :)

Halloween Party at School!
Today was Miles' Halloween party at school and since we finally got a new camera, we were able to take some shots of the kids during the festivities. Miles and Mommy made Cream Cheese Mummies and Pumpkins for the party the night before (so many sweets, we thought it might be good to have something healthy).
Miles is a Bat this year- a scary bat, according to him. Though in line one of the girls said she was frightened by the scary sounds he was making, so he told her that for today he "could be a nice bat, and tomorrow I'll be a scary bat" (it was so sweet). The kids all lined up and went Trick-or-Treating from classroom to classroom and then came back to their room for the party. They ate snacks and played games and everyone had a great time.
Here are the pics- check back soon for the pictures form Halloween Night!

Updates and new pics!
So, Miles started at his new school the beginning of September. He is now at the YMCA in the pre-school program there and loving every minute of it. He has made a lot of new friends and continues to thrive socially and academically.
This past weekend we went up to the beach to help close for the winter. It's always a sad weekend when those shutters go up! It was cold and a bit rainy, so we decided to go out and get some pumpkins to carve. Everyone had a lot of fun- enjoy the pics!
