The Marsiglia cousins (this picture gets harder to take each year as the number of kids grows..)

Lucy's favorite present was the Gerber Puffs :)

The holidays are very tiring...
Lucy excited about being able to pull up on everything now - I'm not so excited...
Kate and Noah
Getting ready to trick or treat - Kate had a lot of fun on Halloween this year, although I've decided she can't really be my child, since after about an hour, she said "I have enough candy now. Let's go home."

I've been really bad about posting pictures here. To be honest, I have no idea how it is already mid-October. All I know for sure is that I currently drink about 5 cups of coffee a day and we are all alive and doing reasonably well :) These first couple pictures are from Labor Day, when we had a picnic lunch up at Pinecrest Park.
Here's Lucy crawling. She started scooting at about 4 months old and full-fledged crawling at 5 1/2 months old, which is quite a bit earlier than Kate crawled. I really need to start baby-proofing. For example, I caught her yesterday about to put her wet hand into the electric socket. She's also fond of pushing the buttons on the TV and DVD player and pushing the lever down on the heat and A/C register. Plus, she's quick. I think her speeding around the room looks particularly funny because she's still so small - still in size 1 diapers!
Poor Sadie can't get a break either...
Checking to see if I'm watching her...
In early October, we went to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware with some friends. The weather was gorgeous and Kate had so much fun walking on the beach and collecting seashells.
Lucy's almost 5 months old now and moving around like crazy using a mixture of rolling and a crazy-looking army crawl. I'm afraid she's going to be crawling any day now..
Kate's preschool was closed for a week in August. Paul stayed home with her and they had a great time being "tourists" in DC - they went to the National Zoo, the National History Museum, swimming and to a splash playground in Germantown.
Kate and I went to get our nails done. She really enjoyed the spa day :)
