HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Alex is cracking up at Mom!


World Series!


So yeah, I have been totally slacking on my posts. Mike kindly reminded me last night that it had been 1 month since my last post. There have been a few events that does warrant my neglect. For example, Mike's mom visited us a couple of weeks. A dentist appointment, a hair appointment, hmmm...I guess that's it. Not much of an excuse huh? Okay okay, well I guess here's a quick recap on the goings-on in the McLean Family camp.

- Mike's Mom took a quick visit to Colorado to see her grandson. Even though it has only been two months since she's seen him, there has been tremendous development in his physical and mental abilities. For example, he WALKS! Another is his communication skills are fast developing. He can now sign "more", "eat", "milk", "help" and "done". He can also understand basic questions and commands such as "Where's your drink?", "Show me the banana", "Clap your hands", "Give mommy/daddy a kiss". So cute!


- My Mom also paid us a visit a a few days after Mike's Mom left. Yes, the grandmas are in need of an Alex fix! As I write this, she is still here and has been a tremendous help. She's watched Alex two nights in a row because of a Halloween party Mike and I attended and we also saw a baseball game called THE WORLD SERIES! Yes, even though Colorado lost, we still had a blast watching the Red Sox win the championship game!

Beautiful Fall Weather

Hooray for Fall! I love it! The leaves are changing, there is a chill in the air! I even love wearing fall clothes--my brown corduroy jacket, boots, scarves, all of it! Anyway, we drove up to the mountains this past weekend to see nature's fireworks on display. It was breathtaking drive up through Evergreen, winding through the mountains, and passing a beautiful lake. Here are a few pics.
