It's been a ridiculously long time since I've posted anything about what's happening with Paige. Where oh where do I begin?
It's been a challenging fall to say the least. I went back to work full time and it was tough on everyone adjusting to our new schedules. Life is back to "normal" now and I am able to spend more time with the girls which has made life at home a little less stressful.
Paige started ballet and tap this fall and is really enjoying it. She takes it quite seriously (shocking I know).

We were a family of pirates this Halloween and it's already been decided that we will be a cat family next year... hmm...

Paige is loving school and is so excited to have Liv be at school with her. The word on the street is that she is a stellar big sister while on campus. Always looking out for little Liv on the playground and making sure that she's safe :).

Paige spent Thanksgiving in North Carolina with Mimi and Papa (mom and dad snuck off to England without the kids). She got to spend time with her cousin Mia and all of her Comperatore boy cousins. It was a Thanksgiving full of hiking, waterfalls, a visit to Santa and eating Smores for dinner. I've been told that what happens at Acorn Cottage stays at Acorn Cottage...

Christmas is quickly approaching and Santa's visit is highly anticipated. The tree has been trimmed, stockings are no where to be found and we are attempting to make a few homemade treats this year. We'll see how that turns out!

Paige and I watched THE POLAR EXPRESS the other night - whoa! CHILLS! We both LOVED IT! I'm sensing a new Christmas tradition in the Howard House. Paige's Christmas sing-a-long is on Wednesday night at her pre-school and here's hoping to increased Paige participation this year.
