Gobble-Gobble! Happy Thanksgiving!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Well, we definitely have so much to be thankful for! What a difference a year makes. Last Thanksgiving, Chris and I announced we were expecting a little baby. We had no idea how much better our lives would become after having such a beautiful baby girl. Kate graced our Thanksgiving table this year and even had her own Thanksgiving dinner! Here are some pics of our family and friends celebrating with good food and fellowship.

Hello Strangers!

It's been quite a while since we last updated everyone. We've had a very busy month! I'm now 5 months old and I've been changing so much. We went to San Antonio earlier this month for Mommy's race. She and Aunt Emily ran for just over two hours and successfully completed the half marathon. I got to hang out with Mimi and Poppa. It was great!

After coming back from San Antonio, Mommy and Daddy decided it was time for me to try cereal. That stuff is delicious! I just wish I could eat it faster. I just want more and more. Here is a few pictures of my first real meal...mmm...it's so good!

Give me more Daddy!!

Just saying hello...

Hello! Thought we'd send a smile your way! I'm off work today and hanging out with my beautiful little girl. I can't wait for all of you to hear how much she talks and laughs now! She's quite the entertainer! More pictures soon. Love, Allison and Kate

Happy Halloween!

It was a very SCARY night in Rochester!! Kate was so excited for her first Halloween. We had fighters...

The Kirmani boys (all 3 of them!) and Mamma Sadaf

An Incredible and Nacho Libre...(aka..The Higuchi's- Ellie the frog declined to be photographed!!!)

And last but not least....A baby giraffe!

With much better weather this year, we had lots and lots of trick-or-treaters and actually got rid of some of the candy! Our friends Mer, Corryn, Bonnie, Pete, Noah, Evelyn, Sadaf, Uns, Umn, Amy, Ty and Ellie all came over for treats and we had such a good time! Kate can't wait for next year. Get ready for her Chicken costume...only 364 days away!

Sleepy Giraffe! Time for bed.
