Calling Dr. Jacob

Zoo

We went to the Roger Williams Zoo in Providence, RI last weekend with our friends Riley and Mason. We had a fun time seeing all of the animals and playing with our friends!Riley and Caroline checking out the seals- the hit of the day!Loving the giraffes!

Walking Man

We have a walker!!

Favorite Song

Caroline has a new favorite song. She has music time at school each Wednesday and at the end they always sing "I Don't Want to Live on the Moon" from Sesame Street. She now sings it all the time, including at the dinner table!

Halloween

The snow did not stop our Halloween! Even though trick-or-treating was postponed in Worcester, we spent the evening with our friends Avery and Trenton in Holden. We carved pumpkins and went trick-or-treating and had a great time!The whole gang getting ready to trick-or-treat!Out little ladybugMommy and the monkey

Snow in October!?!

We were all surprised by the crazy snow storm in October! Here is our house and road after the storm.
We lost power for about 30 hours and lost a lot of tree branches, but we found ways to entertain ourselves!

Happy Birthday to Grandma!

We celebrated Caroline and Jacob's Grandma's 80th birthday in October with the whole family (except Josh)! We had a wonderful dinner as well as musical entertainment courtesy of the 3 brothers, Miriam, and Sara. It was so fun to celebrate this special birthday and to all be together.

Circus

Caroline and I went to the circus this fall and had such a fun day together! Caroline loved the elephants the most and told me she wanted to ride on one! Special memories with our special girl!

Fall

We have had a busy fall- it has flown by!! I will try to recap some of our wonderful adventures this fall! We had a fun field trip with Caroline's school in September to Tougas Farm for apple and pumpkin picking.Showing her apples to Jacob- but making sure he doesn't take them!!Showing off her pumpkin

Helper

Jacob is so sweet to help unload the dishwasher- but did it have to be onto the floor?! Look what I did!

Sterling Fair

We met our friends Mason and Riley at the Sterling Fair last weekend and the kids had a great time with all of the animals, rides, and food!

Back to School

Caroline was so happy to go back to school! This year she is in the Stars class at Temple Emanuel with 8 other kids. We are all settling back into the school routine, but I think Caroline is loving it the most!

Labor Day Weekend

We spent a great weekend in New York with Caroline and Jacob's Grandma, Grandpa, and Miriam. The weather was beautiful, so we got to enjoy a day of swimming. Jacob also had fun discovering stair climbing!Swimming with Grandpa

Beach Day

We wanted to squeeze in a day at the beach before the summer ends! Jacob had never been, and Caroline had not been since she was 1 year old. We went to Plum Island and had a great day. Jacob had fun playing in the sand, and Caroline LOVED playing in the waves!
