Mom, I’m going out.  Can I borrow the car?

One last picture from this weekend.  While Kaya did not get to party at the wedding (because Mommy and Daddy wanted to party), she did get to party with grandma beforehand.

I carried an entire extra bag of toys on the plane to Boston for Kaya’s entertainment.  Each toy lasted about 5 minutes, and we brought 15 toys for the 2 hour plane ride which took up 75 minutes.  Repeat toys last 1 minute each plus the airplane snacks and a diaper change rounded out the schedule.  Kaya did great, but I was exhausted.  Thank god for pop chips!

We spent the weekend at a beach mansion in Rhode Island for my cousin Maureen’s wedding.  It was a wonderful weekend and we couldn’t be happier for the newlyweds.  Congrats Maureen and Pat!

The last time my mom was visiting, I nabbed all the pictures off her camera to back up on our external hard drive. Today I decided to actually look through the pictures and found this cruel form of dog torture.  Also it should be noted that this is my old baby blanket, and now Kaya’s blanket.  Not sure how Marty ended up having a photo shoot with it.

Halloween is a big favorite in the Rose house. This year Kaya got to have two Halloweens: one at school and one at home (mainly because the school had a very strict list of costume requirements and we needed something warm and durable).  At school, she went as a little monster.

And at home, we did an Alice in Wonderland theme.  Kaya liked trick or treating, although she missed some of the point and thought it was very fun to take candy out of her bag and give it to people when they opened the front door.  Nevertheless, we have enough candy at home to make us sick for a month.  Twizzler anyone?
