P & C's Wedding

  

Just before the New Year we took a (way too) quick trip down to Baton Rouge for P & C's wedding.  We had such a great time.  Nearly the whole Grooms clan was there and we were able to see family that we haven't seen since our wedding! 

We were even blessed to have 2 of our favorite cousins volunteer to babysit so I. and I could go to the rehearsal dinner and reception sans baby.  Amazing.  Doesn't she look so cute though?  This is her serious face:

 

The happy couple looked amazing and the ceremony was beautiful.  Welcome to the family C! 

Happy Halloween

Pictures from the Patch

We made our annual trip to the pumpkin patch this past weekend.   The past 2 years in NY we have gone "out east" on the island for a more rural experience.  However, this year we had a 1.5 y/o and nap time considerations so we decided to go to a local patch.  In typical NY fashion it was overcrowded and overpriced and more amusement park than I prefer in a pumpkin patch but we still had fun.  Noe loved riding in the wagon and seeing all the people.  Auntie T and Ninja came along for the day too!

It is finished....

It is official.  I've completed residency!  I had a beautiful last call on Thursday night.  Now I have a few weeks off to enjoy the fall, catch up on sleep and play with my sweet daughter before starting my "real" job.  Life is good.  Thanks for all the prayers these past 3 years.  I made it! 

Picture-Fest

Wow.  So many things have happened since my last post...Ian started his post-doc at NYU, I graduated residency (but am not finished until October...booo), we visited friends for July 4th, and went on a super vaca to Crested Butte CO with family and visited friends in Denver/Boulder while there.  Meanwhile, the baby girl has grown into a little girl!  She is still 95th % for height and 15th % for weight.  At 15 months she's jabbering, taking steps, using a fork, no more paci/bottles, saying "hi" to everyone and everything and altogether just the sweetest girl ever.  Here are some pictures!

 

Hurricane Irene

Please say a few prayers for the safety of everyone in Irene's path.
