Amber update

It seems like it's been a while since Amber graced our blog, so I figured it was about time to do an Amber update :)
This past weekend we went to our Mt. Cain cabin on north Vancouver Island. It was Amber's first trip and she did quite well considering the travel time there was quite long. Somewhere along the way she has become quite a great little car traveler!

When we first arrived it was late at night and the fire in the cabin had not been lit in quite a while so the house was freezing! Poor little Amber was looking like the the Michelin Man when I put her to bed wearing a big sweatshirt, two pairs of pants and 3 blankets. Luckily the wood stove quickly got things toasty warm and I was able to peel a few layers off of her.

In other news, I'm already itching to get Amber into the Halloween spirit. I decided to gently coax force her into her new costume.....just to make sure it fit of course ;) To my delight she actually seemed to enjoy it. Or maybe she was just giggling because I was making funny noises at the sight of how cute she looked in her dragon costume. As can be seen in Exhibit A:
Cutest little dragon ever!
And a grainy Exhibit B and C:

Amber seems to put up with my dress-up games quite well. Hopefully she'll still be just as willing when Halloween actually gets here!
