Thanks!

big thanks to everyone who donated to my Movember campaign. I have raised $770 so far, nearly double the $415 I raised last time I did it, in 2008.

Tommy enjoyed Iris's party too

Our kids can only eat pizza with no cheese, and Tommy loved it. Everyone else was surprised at how much, and for how long he was eating.

first movie today

Iris saw her first movie in a theater today:  Puss in Boots!

Thanks Pepere!

my dad sent the kids a HUGE stuffed dog. They were both very excited when we opened the box today--Iris was shriek-giggling. Here are some pics of Iris and Tommy with their new pal (who still needs a name)

Here are the links to view them in larger format on youtube:

Trying on their Halloween costumes

up in Tommy's room. Please pretend to be surprised if you see them this weekend. (Iris is a strawberry and Tommy's a monkey).
