my random ramblingsan infrequent (and these days, mostly Mira related…) blog

ballet class in the morning, nice to get an extra hour’s sleep prior. walk around town with the girls in the afternoon, taking our last pumpkin-themed photos prior to the xmas onslaught. unseasonably warm, imagine it will be colder in MN. relaxing day at home.

carved the pumpkin on Friday, but tossed it 20 minutes later as was already rotten. stopped by another building for trick or treating so Mira could join her friend, but not something we’d ever need to do again. back in time to do a little of the same in our building. Mira really likes candy… 🙂

4 pm birthday party in the building. fun time, awesome apartment. couldn’t imagine dealing with 20+ 3 year olds myself…

morning dance class, with a stop for some shopping on the way back. took 1 wall off of Mira’s crib and shocked by how much she rolls during the night. now looking for an alternative solution to keep her from rolling onto the floor.

afternoon trip to ship an 80+ pound box, and swung by Ann’s before heading home. back out later in the day to look for shelves, but instead ended up with a big pumpkin. looking forward to pie(s). 🙂

another morning ballet lesson – really having a good time watching Mira. had some work to catch up on, but overall a relaxing Sunday as i’m not traveling this week.

Alexa dropped in the night before as a weather delay meant she spent the night with us. Meli for brunch and a good time hanging out. back to MDW for her flight out to CO.

morning ballet class – first of many, i have a feeling this may become “her thing”. very cute to watch children of that age trying to learn. a little afternoon football for me before an evening flight out for work.

Лена took Mira to her first skating lesson. sorry to have missed, but at least got a bunch of photos and videos.

a little shopping before a stop by Лена’s new favorite playground (Mira likes it too). lunch at some South Loop diner, and think we’ll be back in the future for breakfast. less than a week until cruise-time 🙂
