Patrick had a great time with cousin Stormie. He thought she was fun to watch at first, and then he was full-on playing with her. Eventually she was manhandling him all over the house and he went for it. Pretty strange to us because he’s never been one for “rough” stuff. Apparently it’s OK if your cousin does it.
Here the two of them are as Stormie tried to get PJ to wear a ‘coon skin hat (as seen through my crappy iPhone camera):
Monkeys. Both in real life, and on Halloween.
We strolled to our favorite neighbors, but they were all gone. Then by the time it was dark and other kids started strolling the streets, our Monkeys needed ‘nanas and sleep. So the trick or treating was more or less a trick this year.
But next year, next year it’s on!
Went for a visit to our new pediatrician. Dr. Guerrero is very friendly, has a great demeanor with the kids and is full of sage advice. He inspected the twins, each got three shots and we learned of their current stats. At near 17 months:
Katie – 21lbs, 7oz., 30.75″, 15% weight, 30% height

Patrick – 25lbs, 2oz., 32.5″, 50% weight, 75% height
