Whiffenbabies of the World, Unite!

One of Thomas's fellow Whiffenwinks/Winkenpoofs (Spizzwinks who were also in the senior singing group at Yale), Marc Suskin, recently came to the Bay Area for a visit. And he brought along his beautiful wife, Alexa, and their 12 month old baby Sylvie!

The girls had a fantastic time playing together and baby cuteness abounded. We took the girls to a local pumpkin patch run by the Alameda firefighters and also to ride on the steam trains at Tilden Park. While the weekend had plenty of highs, it was also a comedy of errors at times. Virginia had her first urgent care visit while the Suskins were in town - she dropped a pack of Jello pudding cups on her toe, causing it to turn very blue. Then, Marc and Thomas managed to catch a stomach bug. Plus, it rained nonstop too! Despite the hiccups, we had a blast. And the parents even got a night out on the town - we attended a neighbor's Halloween bash.
