Happy Halloween

For Sean's first Halloween we dressed him up as a Penguin. My mother bought the costume almost a year ago while I was pregnant and we were nervous that since I have such a big boy that he wouldn't fit into the costume. Luckily he fit just perfectly and was so adorable.

Sean is a little young to go out Trick or Treating, we're waiting for him to be able to talk first, so instead we went to my mother's elementary school to see all the little kids dressed up for their Halloween parade. Sean was a huge hit!!

Sean tried out his other costume options before the parade......

After the parade Sean helped Grammy finish up some of her work.

We had an alternate costume waiting in the wings just in case Sean was too big to be the penguin.

Its a bird, its a plane, its SUPER SEAN!!!!!!!!

Salem

Today Lauren, Sean and I drove up to Salem,MA. Since its two days until Halloween we figured we'd run into all sorts of colorful characters and interesting activites going on. Unfortunately there really wasn't as much "color" as we had hoped. Maybe it was due to the cold weather....it was freezing and windy. We still had fun.

We heard that to see all the sights we needed to follow the red line....easier said than done. We lost it on several occasions, crossed back and forth over numerous streets and eventually found our way.

Sean finally let us know that he had enough of the witches and the cold so we headed back to my parents for dinner. Lauren took these great shots of Sean while trying to tire him out for bed.

Back to Blogging again......

The USS New Hampshire ( Mark's Sub) was commissioned on October 25th. Mark's parents came out for the celebration and we all headed up to Portsmouth NH for all the festivities.

It was a loooong day for Sean!!!

Daddy's Home

Mark's been home for the last week or so and we've had such a good time. We've been to the zoo and the park with Sean and Mark and I celebrated our 4 year anniversary. Can't believe that its been 4 years already......and that we have a baby!!! It all still seems too grown up....
