Happy All Saints/Souls!

We hope that everyone had a fun weekend! We actually had some trick-or-treaters come to our house this year, leaving us with just enough candy to share with the kids at RCIA. Alida had more fun running around without her shirt on for Halloween, but also had a ton of fun wearing her Dorthy costume (thanks Aunt T!) on All Saints Day. Here are some more pictures from the summer, as well as ones from this weekend! Enjoy!

Alida LOVES to play dress up....hmmm, must run in the Librande family...


Having fun at the park! Alida's first experience in the toddler swing...

I think she enjoyed it :)

I'm not sure who's having more fun, Adam or Alida?

Swinging with dad!

Snuggling down to read a book with daddy...

....and then getting tickled!

Alida really enjoys sitting in little seats, especially her old carseat, which she is WAY too big for now! We'll see how she likes her little brother riding in it...
So this is Halloween day (and what Alida currently looks like)! She's sporting her new happy Halloween shirt from Oma and Opah!

Look at that hair!

I managed to get her hair in pigtails to wear with her Dorthy costume...

They lasted for a little while...

until I tried to put the costume on...then it was out with the hair and running around shirtless time! Needless to say, we did not get the costume on Halloween night....

All Saints day was a different story! She had so much fun wearing her Dorthy costume from Aunt T! We didn't get a picture with Toto in his basket, but she definitely enjoyed carrying him around :)

The ruby slippers are a bit big, but Alida still enjoyed walking around in them :)

Here she is asking mom to put her shoes back on....we eventually opted for red tights and a pair of sparkly shoes that she has that actually fit because helping her put those shoes on every other minute was getting a little tiring for this mama!

We hope that everyone had a great weekend!

May the divine assistance remain with us always, and may the souls of the faithfully departed rest in peace.

God bless!

Love, The Librande family

    I especially love the photo of Daddy tickling her and Mommy trying to get her in the costume.

Daughter's Day

 Today is National Daughter's Day so I thought I'd fill today's post with pictures of our daughter, the one who made us parents, Alida! This beautiful girl is definitely her own person. She's sweet, stubborn, artistic, giving, and incredibly loving. We are so blessed to have her as our daughter!  Before braces... And after! Alida took this picture of Brumby with her baby Charlotte  We love you Alida!

Hair Cut and a Story

First off, happy Easter everyone!!! Alleluia!  Yesterday Giovanni got a haircut! Adam was the barber and I was the chair. Gio did a great job and aged about 3 years by the time we were finished. Check it out! Before... After! Before... After! And now for your listening enjoyment, here is a little video of Alida telling the story of Peter Rabbit, pretty much word for word from her story book (with a few mix ups here and there). She was looking at the book while sitting on the potty and I heard her telling the story, like I said, basically word for word, pretty good memory with that one (definitely comes from the Librande side)! I didn't get Alida in the picture, mainly because if she saw me with the camera she would stop telling the story. So put on your listening ears (and two year old speech translator) and enjoy! Love, The Librande Family
