It looks like autumn has arrived in full-swing now with the majority of leaves already on the ground. Natasha is fascinated by all this since last Autumn she was a tiny one or two month old infant and slept through most of our walks, not to mention she was simply too small to notice. This year it's all too amusing to her and she loves watching the maples leaves fly in the air. She also loves holding them on the way to the park. Yesterday I let her sit in the midst of a bunch of those leaves and play with them. She was all too fascinated and played with them for some twenty minutes.

Tonight is Halloween. I have Natasha's costume all prepared and we'll go outside in the late afternoon to take photos. She's going to be a black kitten - I just hope the costume still fits her. We are not taking her trick-o-treatin' as she's simply too small and will neither understand what's going on, nor be able to use the candy. So hopefully she'll cooperate for the photo session!
