This is the time of year where the drudgery of the heat and long days gives way to cooler nights and the excitement of the pending holiday season. I LOVE it! I love Halloween.... which leads to Thanksgiving... which leads to CHRISTMAS!!! (yippee!) This year we're really excited about this time of the season because Malia is almost 2 and she is so aware of everything around her. We're considering taking her trick-or-treating for her first time (although Mommy is probably more excited about that then Malia). And we're also thinking about coordinating our costumes together as a family (again, something Mommy is excited about.... Daddy couldn't care less). LOL.
We're still in the midst of shopping around for our first home. "They" claim that prices are going down, but I tell ya'.... if these prices are "down," I don't WANT to know what "up" is! Maybe it's just Orange County. What's with those snobs who have to live in the "OC" (don't call it that [Arrested Development])?! Oh yeah, I guess we're one of those now. One of the benefits of finally getting a place of our own would mean I could possibly start teaching piano and voice again and bring in a little extra income to balance out my spending habits (oops!).
I finally took Malia on the new "Finding Nemo" ride at Disneyland the other day. The line is often 2-3 hours long. Fortunately, we waited only 30 min. When we got to the submarine entrance, the employee asked Malia if she was ready to see Nemo. Malia looked up at her and opened her eyes wide with raised eyebrows, gritted her teeth in a big grin, and clenched her fists (that's her "excited" reaction). It made the employee laugh really hard. Malia is such a little actress. She doesn't really like it when Mommy & Daddy hug. I think she gets possessive. She used to cry. But now, she puts her head down and pouts while looking at us through the corner of her eyes until we stop. It's hysterical! We're in so much trouble with this one.

Your little gal is adorable! Then again, she has always been a pretty little girl, huh? I am so glad to hear the crying stopped and all her fun words started! That must be such a fun age!
