Really…we don’t need much. But these are things we’d buy ourselves…even though we won’t.

A Few Fall Moments
Yesterday was a lot of Trick Or Treating. Seven went around with his cousins Clay, Nate & Ben, then we met up with Rikki and Doug & their girls, Rae & Ryan, as well as Eric, Leslie, and Lainy. Wow…the streets were packed. Packed.
And you know what? Idiots driving around on residential streets at high speeds should not be ticketed…they should be shot. it was AWFUL.
Well, anyway…unless Dad managed to get a decent picture, here’s the best shot I got of Sev in his zebra outfit. The other pictures I took over at the golf course one afternoon.

Pumpkin Farm
On Sunday we took Sev to the Riner Pumpkin Farm with Adam, Nicole and Hudson. Addie was sweet enough to buy all of us tickets for the hayride, and of course Sev loved that! Anything tractor related gets his blood pumping.
Afterwards, we went to the Farmhouse for a nice lunch – and we were given the entire Caboose to ourselves! Fun times.

2 years old & time for his closeup
I put this little video together for a couple of reasons.
1. It was time. I should have made one last year, but just got around to it. It’s not perfect, but it’s good enough for now.
2. Jon’s out of town and itching to see the Boy. So, here he is.
Love ya, Kit.

bath time for a lonely daddy
Hiya, Kit...
Thought you might like to see and hear the Boy in tonight's bath. I love to hear him say "okay."
See you in a couple of days. We love you!

Hanging with Daddy!
Last weekend while I was working the wedding, Jon took Seven to Cass Railroad with his Mom, Dad, Keeli, Josh & Brant. They took to 2 hour scenic ride up the mountain and Seven seems to have had a big time! They bought him a "ChooChoo" that he loves to make racket with (thanks, Nonno)...

Pool Day
It took some waiting, but we finally had a nice enough day last week to take Seven and Nathan to the Country Club to swim. They seemed to have a big time...and I snapped this shot with my iPhone of them playing. Isn't it cute?
This week we have Clay, so hopefully the rain will let up enough tomorrow that I can take him out, too. We'll see!

So We Are Opinionated
Some of you may not know that one of Seven's favorite shows is Wheel of Fortune. He likes to sit in his highchair and watch it, yelling letters at Pat & Vanna. His favorites are C and G, sometimes O, but he covers most of them. Lately we have been watching Dancing With the Stars - because he likes the music and the dancing. Well, last night, this is what happened. Jon was upstairs taking a shower, and I really couldn't believe what was happening, so I tried to capture it for him, just in case he wouldn't believe me when I told him. Just as I was getting ready to catch it on film, he came down the stairs. Bummer.
But hey - we got it anyway!! Check this out - and sorry for the poor quality, but it isn't easy to hide a camera from a toddler and film in the dark. I think you'll get the depth of my bemusement.

A Lesson in Impressionism
Thanks Mom & Dad for putting me through college and paying for an Art History degree. As you can see, it has come in to be quite useful.
Of course, I think this makes him a genius, but I am biased.

No Worries, We Are Here
Sorry for the delay in updating you. We just found the internet point...we ended up sleeping all night last night- then all day today! Even Seven went back to bed with me after breakfast (Jon just stayed in bed through breakfast) and we slept until after 3!
Today is chilly and drizzly, making it not too much fun to be out and about, and right now, Sev is out there with Jon trying to muster up some take-out to take back to the apartment. We will see how that goes.
Tomorrow we will get our new phone number, and will try to call the parents. Just know that we are okay and having as much fun as possible in a closed up apartment with no microwave and only one scratchy TV station that plays Italian and English MTV.
Thank God for portable computers and DVD players! (Thanks, Jenn)
Until next time, Ciao!

Seven, Dancing.
Today as I was doing some work on the computer, I heard Seven figure out how to turn on the sound system - and then the CD player - and then change CDs - and finally, get the music to come on. I ignored the music for a couple of minutes, but when I turned around, this is what I saw. It continued for the biggest part of the afternoon, in fact, it caused a nap.
What you are watching is a compilation of the videos I took over the course of the event, set to the music he seemed to like the most. Surely, an unusual choice, but he liked it and so do I. I hope you enjoy watching him as much as I did.
