Both kids were naughty monkeys for Halloween, although Grace spent half the day as a pumpkin to make her mommy happy. We sold pumpkins at the church and even though we only had one sale on our shift, we had tons of fun yelling "Pumpkins, Pumpkins, Get Your Bright Orange Pumpkins!" We bought a crate of pumpkins at the Farmer's Market and wound up helping two little kittens there. The black one that James named Jack, broke his leg and James and I took him to the clinic set it. During time that Jack was fostering at our house, James comforted him every day. Grace took her first steps on Nov. 9 in front of her Maa, Nana, Cappy, and Daddy and just couldn't wait until her Mommy came in from the kitchen. She did it again tonight so I finally got to see her walk! Grace turns one in two weeks and I will post more photos after all the celebrations have ended.
