Happy Halloween

The Halloween Festivities started Friday afternoon in our family.  I got to go to Daddy's new office and see all of my friends there and Trick-or-Treat.  Thanks Tony and Mark for the tasty goodies.  We then came home and carved my first Pumpkin.  It was so much fun.  Here is how it went.

Here is Daddy cleaning out the innards.  I am supervising!

Mommy washed it all clean

I inspected the pumpkin to make sure it was just right, Quality Control!

So far so good.

  Oops, you missed a spot.

Mommy has always called me Pumpkin Eater... She wasn't joking.  TASTY!

Daddy and his mad carving skills.

I am so ready to see how this thing turns out.

This is Two Face.  Not to shabby for my first Jack-O-Lantern.

Hope it isn't too scary for all of the Trick-o-Treater's tonight.

This is our scary window decoration that Mommy made.

As I was waiting to go to my friends house for a Halloween Party, I got my foot caught in Daddy's laptop bad and my shoe fell off.  I actually dragged the bag by my shoe into the family room before it finally let go. 

Silly bag.

So this year for Halloween I went as Tracy McGrady. What else would I go as?  Watch out NBA here comes Daddy's retirement.

I wasn't loving the photo shoot so much this time.  These were the best that Mom could get.  Hope you enjoy!

 

 

FINALLY IT IS OVER!!!

Hope you all have a very SCARY and Candy filled Halloween!

Watch Out Here I Come!

Today I took 5 steps to Daddy all by myself. Mommy wasn't home to see it, but I kept practicing and when she got home Daddy and I showed her how I could do it. I have decided that walking is fun. I still have to practice A LOT, but watch out, I will soon really be on the move. Mommy and Daddy will have some pictures and hopefully some video soon.

UPDATE 

(10/31/2009)

I got sick the week after I started walking and took a week off the recuperate and get well.  Yesterday I decided that it was time.  I walked across the entire family room floor.  Here is what Mommy was able to capture before I fell.  Enjoy.
(we don't have a video camera, so still photos are what you get)

Don't you just love how my hips swivel.  

11 Months Old

WoW! It is hard to believe that I am 11 months old. Where has the time gone? One more month and I won't be a baby anymore.
I am in my jammies for these pictures because I am a bit sick. I have croup. YUCK! It could be a lot worse. I just have a horrible sounding cough and runny nose. Even though I don't feel great, I am still as happy and playful as ever.

Don't you just love my Jammies?

When I went to see Dr. Bentley this week for my croup, I weighed in at 20 lbs 14 oz.

Are you talking to me?

I crack myself up!

Just chillin'

So cute

Here are a few things that I can do now....

I can cruse all over the place. I even walk behind my airplane without any help from Mommy and Daddy. I have even taken a few steps all by myself, but not more than 1-2, it is just faster to get to where I want to go crawling. Standing is a breeze as well.

I am eating much better. Turns out food is pretty good, especially Bananas.

I can tell you where my ears and head are.

I can throw my arms into the air when someone says Touchdown.

I learned how to pull myself up onto the ottoman, which then lets me get up onto the couch. Mommy isn't too excited about that one, now nothing is safe.

I talk for hours, but no one seems to understand what I am saying. Weird.

I am still not sleeping through the night, but I am getting better.

Nothing drives like a Deere!

This one is for Uncle Doug. Hope you like it.


Mowing Great Grandma P. lawn with Daddy. So fun.

Ooooooh
