Happy Halloween, & woe to Yankees fans...

It's been a rough time for Yankees fans lately; Rachel & Chris, you know what I'm talking about. Mike's been handling it well, though. I was prepared for the worst when Boston swept the Series, but he was amazingly calm about it, even admitting that they deserved to win. I wouldn't watch much of it, a couple of those players are just too annoying (if you don't wanna hustle, I don't wanna watch). I'm not looking forward to next season, though, because it just won't be the same without Torre & I'm afraid it'll be really frustrating for Mike to watch. At least Mike got to see two of his idols, Seinfeld & Torre, on Letterman this week.

I'm so excited for trick-or-treating! Hopefully we'll get a decent turnout; a lot of people around here seem to think Halloween is evil & won't let their kids participate, or won't let them go door to door (apparently strangers are evil, too). We are armed with tons of candy. We went to kind of a Halloween party last weekend (not many people dressed up - lame) but we misplaced our camera & can't post the picture of us just yet. Also the reason why there's no picture yet of my belly, which has been a popular request.

We trekked up to southern Atlanta on Monday to shop at the closest Babies R Us. It was my last attempt at finding a nursery glider. We found one we both really liked, but the only one available was the floor model, & it was a challenge to get it into our car fully assembled. Seems like everything I want to order or register for is being discontinued. But the glider is really comfy. I just hope Calvin (our cat) leaves it alone (doesn't do a #2 on it).

My friends Kara & Sarah were nice enough to plan a shower for early December, even though Kara's traveling to Germany this month & Sarah has a munchkin of her own at home. Hopefully her son Cole & Victor will get to be playmates. We're fortunate to have found such good friends here.

I promise, as soon as we find that camera, photos are coming...
