3 months and 3 years!

We had some pictures taken this past weekend. We thought this would be a good time since Shuchi is almost 3 months old and Atchuthan is almost 3 (!). They were both very cooperative. In fact, Shuchi loved the camera and kept smiling at the woman taking the pictures. I think she was fascinated by the flash going off.

Baby smiles

We love baby smiles. This past week Shuchi has been pretty generous with her smiles. She focuses on the face and when she recognizes you, her whole face lights up and she breaks into this huge smile with her tongue sticking out. Melts the heart :-).

Cute Shuchi

I think Shuchi is very cute. Here are a few pictures and videos of her as she's growing up.

Cooing!

Napping with the beautiful blanket that Kristi made for her.

Hanging out in her favorite place - the play mat.

All ready for bed.

Halloween 2009

Last week was kinda hard since everyone was sick but luckily we all got better right in time for Halloween. Daddy and I carved our first pumpkins in the afternoon. Then mommy took me trick or treating with my buddies Jayden, Liam, Ayla and their cousins. All in all it was a fun day. Shuchi couldn't go T or T this year as mommy told me she was too little. I really wanted her to go and kept telling mommy but she didn't listen to me - something about the rain and flu. Whatever.

My Halloween festivities started 2 weeks ago with a costume play date and candy hunt at Alexander's house.

Then we had our community Halloween party/parade last Sunday where I got to sit in a fire truck.

On Thursday was the costume parade at my school.

In my classroom.

Walking in the parade.

Finally, ready to go Trick or treating. I had mom paint this cool skull on my face also.

Back home and telling Shuchi all that I did - tired but happy.
