Karoline the Gymnast

Here's Karoline flipping around the living room, showing off some of her moves.

Julianna & Elmo

Proof that Julianna can get anywhere!

Julianna is trying desperately to crawl. She has just about mastered getting herself up on all fours, so it shouldn't be long till she's moving! But, that doesn't stop her from getting where she wants to be. She can scootch, wiggle & roll anywhere. We've found her stuck under chairs, rolling out of rooms & the best yet...this is how daddy found her on Sunday morning!

The Lottis

I've been trying to get better at taking more pictures. As I look back at Karoline's first year, we have hundreds pictures. Sadly, Julianna has fallen into the second child syndrome. Mommy is busy with day to day things & the camera is forgotten. So, I've been leaving the camera out so it reminds me to take some pictures every day. Here are some random pictures from the last couple of weeks!

Our Halloween Fun!

Halloween was a full day of fun. We started the day with a parade and party at Karoline's preschool. All of the kids dressed in their costumes & "paraded" through the school.

We went to the Halloween carnival in downtown Clayton that afternoon. Karoline has been every year since she was 2 & loves it! The kids parade down Main Street & the business owners pass out candy. The parade ends at the Town Square where the high school students put on a carnival complete with games, face painting and treats! Julianna had a great time at her first carnival & is looking forward to many more!

And, to end the day, we went trick or treating with our next door neighbors. The kids had a great time! Both Karoline & Julianna were beat by the end of the day!
