Halloween Photo Shoot

So...my dad and Elizabeth brought Felix this little Halloween outfit when they came to visit and I thought I would attempt a photo shoot at my mom's house because she has tons of decorations everywhere. Well, I put Felix in this cute little outfit and attempted to pose him. He, of course, wanted NOTHING to do with it. Below are the results...



Delehanty Visitors

Grandma and Grandpa Delehanty made their way up to Vermont from Connecticut 2 weekends ago!
We went on an autumn walk in the woods, saw "Burn After Reading" and had yummy meals at Maegen and Jay's house. Felix loved showing his grandparents all of his new tricks...you know, like holding his head up, sucking his thumb, talking like crazy, and exploring the world around him.

Keeping the Doctor Away: Fruit Picking, Vol. 1

With the coming of fall comes our yearly trip to Shelburne Orchards to pick a bounty of delicious apples from the trees, some of which were turned into a bubbly trough of Apple Crisp, Brown Betty to its friends, for last night's dessert. Picking apples is a surprisingly low maintenance enterprise and takes virtually no time at all, which allowed us more time to focus on our real goal, the acquisition and devouring of cider doughnuts. And on that score, I can report, in the words of our fearless leader, George W. Bush: Mission Accomplished.




Visit from Auntie Leah

Felix's (honorary) Aunt Leah came to town for a visit this weekend. She's been on the road all summer, going coast to coast and in between working for Clean Vibes and seeing enviable amounts of live music. Yes, we're jealous. Among the highlights, she said, were Radiohead and Tom Petty, but who really wants to see them anyway? She hadn't seen Felix since just after he was born and she was awed by his progress and pretty much head over heels in love with him. We were sorry to see her go...come again soon!

Big, Smiley Guy

Felix is growing at tremendous rates! I don't know how much he weighs but just look what he can do...
