Happy Halloween!

We decked Mallory out in a cute pink bunny outfit for her first Halloween. Although she didn't make it out for trick or treating, her grandparents soaked it all in!

Here are some more pics from her busy night:

Time is Flying!

Michol was in Nebraska for a couple of days this week for work so it was just me, Mallory, the pups, and the cats. This was the first time I had to hold the fort down by myself and everything went as well as can be. Mallory found some time to take a nap (pictured above) on Monday night while I ran the pups around in the yard.

It's been a pretty crazy month of October with work being insanely busy and stressful but at the end of the day we can always count on that big smile from Miss Mallory!

Stay tuned for Mallory's next video...coming soon!

Here are some other pics from the past couple of weeks:

Bath Time!

Love My Bouncy Chair

Oscar Waching Over His Baby Sister

Alive and Kicking!

Mallory was in full voice this weekend. She was making sounds that we haven't heard before. She also is making every attempt to turn over and is really starting to show her kicking skills. If only we can convince her to work on all of this during the day and not in the middle of the night :)

Bath Time!

The weather outside wasn't so great today so we decided to give Mallory a bath after work. It is getting much easier to bathe her now that she is getting bigger and less fragile. After her bath, we fed her, and she fell fast asleep on her bouncy chair while we had some dinner...nice relaxing Thursday night.

Here are some more pics from her cleaning session:

On her own!

Hopefully you can make out Mallory in this picture from our video monitor...She spent her first night in her crib (alone in her room with the door shut) this weekend! It definitely felt weird not to have her in our bedroom after 3 1/2 months, not to mention the bright light from the video screen blasting us in the face all night. The pups didn't seem to mind as they stayed asleep all night.

All in all, Mallory did great. She slept very well Sunday night into Monday morning, only fussing a little bit. Amazing how far she has come since day 1!

Case of the Giggles!

Someone has a case of the giggles!



No smiling at iSmile!

We took Mallory to iSmile at Colonie Center on Thursday night, courtesy of Aunt Chiara, for her first official photo shoot. She did really well but couldn't quite find that smile of hers during the actual shoot. Of course when we were walking her around the mall while waiting for the pictures to print, she was smiling all over the place. We go back in a month for another round...we'll see what happens!

On Location at Mallory's Photo Shoot

Wiped out!



After spending time with the family on Saturday, Michol and I chilled out at the house on Sunday and waited for the thunder and lighting to arrive. Once the storm arrived, Mallory ate through the entire event without a flinch. After dinner, while Michol was doing laundry, Mallory hung out on her bouncy chair and watched a little soccer with daddy. Actually, I think she was more fascinated with the red jerseys of Spain.
