Happy Halloween!!

Dad says I'll appreciate Halloween more in a few years. I sure hope so, because so far all its meant is slimy pumpkins, weird clothes and hyper kids....

This is what I meant by slimy pumpkins.....

Yep, I've definitely had enough of this....
Mom took me to school - these are some of her former students

My First Sacrament

I was Baptised on October 28th, what an exhilarating experience. Many people travelled to see the big event, including my Great Grandparents, and we had a nice brunch after church. Thank you to my grandmothers for all the work they put into the event.

I'm not bald, my hair is just a little slicked back from the anointing oilHere we are with Father Scott. I sure like to smile around him
Mom and I at the reception, still no nap for me....
This is my Godfather, he's a great guy!

So Excited!

I am soo excited for Sunday! I am getting Baptized and a lot of my family is coming to watch - I can't wait to celebrate with them! You know I will post pictures of all of this weekend's activities, so check back soon.

Which way is the bunny slope?

Fall is in the Air

It's now October and I'm 3 1/2 months old. Everyday brings a new and exciting development - I'm much more aware of my surroundings and trying to take in everything. My parents are lucky to have friends with kids my age to go out and do things with. This weekend we all met up at the pumpkin patch for some Fall Festivities.... pumpkins, corn mazes, hay rides and caramel apple pie (I wish I could have some - or at least get some caramel flavored milk!)

Here we are with the scarecrow near the corn maze

Dad and I in the corn maze. I'm trusting dad to find our way out, but he keeps looking for a baseball field (????)

Look, I'm a Scarecrow!

Soo BIG!

I seem to be growing exponentially (got that one from my word of the day baby wipes!). Dad's face turns red everytime he tries to pick up the carseat with me in it. Last week my friend Ava got baptised, so we all got together to celebrate.

Can you imagine the chaos in a couple years?

Are those my feet? Think I can get them in my mouth?
Mommy, I think I've had enough tummy time. Can I get some milk now?
I tooted!
I love my mommy soooooo much!

Dad's Side of the Family

We got together with my dad's side of the family in Spokane. I got to meet my Great Grandparents, Great Aunts and Uncles and even some 2nd Cousins.... unfortunately I didn' t get my picture taken with everyone.

Spokane, Here I Come!
