Caroline is Three

Three. It's crazy.

Caroline's birthday festivities kicked off with presents and sprinkles pancakes on her actual birthday last Thursday.  Then she brought (christmas) cookies to her class on Friday and her big party was Saturday!

We gathered friends and family in our back yard and alley for some running and scooting!  John made hot cocoa for the kids and we served it in little cups with tiny lids.  How cute! (Photo courtesy of M. Madigan).

Then we sang happy birthday and her FAVORITE SONG before digging into cake and rainbow shore-bert (as C says it).

I think she had an amazing birthday.  Thanks to all who made her day very special (and to M and B for sharing pics since I took zero, and for A for grabbing my camera for me).

Boo!

Halloween was great this year.  Caroline was Olivia the Pig.  Eleanor a cow.  And Olivia was Black Widow. Quite a group!  Trick or treating is the best.  And lots of candy was consumed.  E loved walking and strolling with Nana.  Babs and I bribed the girls with candy to do a photo shoot when it was still light out.

This is perfection:

A few shots before we headed out in the Palisades…apologies for the graininess but it was quite dark!
