Tuesday-1pm

Good Afternoon!

Yes, I am moving very slowly today.

Karma and Ian pics today.

Karma loves to pet herself. 

She rubs her own head... 

...back and forth...  

...on the carpet... 

...or wherever she feels like it, really. 

Ian and Mama were by for short visit last week.

Leah remembered we were going to try to get more pictures as they were ready to go out the door.

Ian has a new coat and was pretty tired.

Was waving bye-bye and plenty ready to go home...

...but we tortured him with pictures.

He even played peek-a-boo...

...a little bit.

Leah set my cell phone for me so I could try using it for the first time making a video.

Of course, Ian wasn't feeling as cooperative by this time--silly grownups.  But, he has to learn all about a proper Minnesota Goodbye, right?  Grandma stands outside her apartment door and waves as they walk all the way down the hall.

Have you ever seen How To Talk Minnesotan?  
If you click on the link and watch it.  I am Minnesotan born and raised.  It is all true.

Leah took Halloween pictures.
Ian asleep in the car seat with his big green light stick.  He went five different places.

McFamily had a huge smoking pumpkin out front...

...along with their skeleton and a few more pumpkins.  The teal one next to the skeleton is the one announcing alternative treats.

Ian was a dragon this year.

(So Game of Thrones, eh?)

He helped hand out candy for a little while, too.

Was extra generous, I hear.  :)

But got bored with the waiting pretty quickly...

...so he went and sat in his new IKEA chair to watch baseball with Daddy and eat Cherrios.

I didn't have any kids here at the new place at all.  No surprise.  Hope everyone had a nice Halloween.

I'm still on R&R.  Caroline is bringing groceries in a little while.  We have our first annual inspection of the new apartments tomorrow.  My goal is to make a couple of videos this week.  I want to link in with a "Journal Showdown" video that will show you all of my various journals and I also want to make a tour of the new home video, too.  When I get them done I will post them on the blog.  :)

And I did forget to take a picture of my red coffee mug for T-Stands For Tuesday over at Elizabeth's--but you know it is sitting right here next to the McLap.  ;)  I hope I can get around to visit everybody for T-Day this week.  It's a gorgeous crisp sunny fall day.  Have a fantastic rest of your week!!
