October seemed to be the time for playdates, we have had quite a few of them this month for some reason. One reason could be Isabelle's penchant for planning them with her friends then notifying her parents about those plans at the last second. This appears to be something she enjoys doing with her friends during the school day or at daycare. In any case, it seems like almost every weekend this month there was a playdate on the agenda, which is great for getting things done if you aren't hosting them, but as you can expect quite the opposite if you are. We did both this month, and Isabelle even has one more tomorrow as she has been invited to her first Hallowe'en house party. It's great to see both Isabelle and Oliver making so many friends and such good friends that they even want to hang out on the weekends. Now if only Mom and Dad can keep track of how busy all 4 of our schedules are!

We were also lucky enough to have Halifax and New Smyrna friends Martha and John in town with their little grandson Evan from Montreal. It was great to have the little guy here, especially since we had heard so much about him over the past couple of years. He is a complete francophone, which gave Isabelle and her Mom both the chance to speak French. As for Oliver, he and Evan spoke the universal language of Cars movies so they got along just great. We hope we get the chance to see the little guy again soon, it's always so nice to see his grandparents, they are such kind people. We all adore them!
