These past three weeks have been a crazy whirlwind - James went Trick or Treating for the first time, and then the next morning we packed up and headed to Ohio for two weeks! It was a good thing we had Superman with us ;)

I think today is the first day that I feel caught up and relaxed back at home. Even though it was an exhausting two weeks, the memories were worth it. Ohio was a great trip filled with lots of friends and family, can't beat that.

The day after we got back, Madeleine had her 4 month appointment. She is great (15 lbs 3 ounces and 25.5 inches) but the four vaccinations that she got put her under the weather for a few days. Yesterday she was feeling much better and so we decided to try and feed her some bananna. The doctor told us to start her on food if we wanted and since it might help her sleep through the night - we wanted to try it! However, she had other ideas - and eating solids was not one of them. It took several tries with James to get him to understand the concept of swallowing, so we will keep on trying with her too.
