Well you survived your first Halloween with your mommy! You know, my birthday is on Halloween, so you’re stuck having to dress up EVERY year You didn’t like the strawberry outfit very much, you cried and cried and cried and wanted it taken off. So I put you in the pumpkin outfit and you were happy for the rest of the day. You seemed to think it was more comfortable because you moved around a lot, laughing, and smiling. I loved seeing you so happy.

Trick-or-treaters came to our door and they all got to see you when we opened the door. Many people said, “Aww how cute” when they saw you… and you’d grin so cutely! Gosh you are adorable. I could just pinch your cheeks!!

I kinda went Halloween crazy this year with the face painting and I got you 3 outfits (2 of them shown). I also videotaped you trying to crawl while wearing your pumpkin outfit. I’ll get that uploaded soon. You still can’t crawl, but you’re already rolling over beautifully and you keep trying to move forward on your stomach.

On your two month check-up at the pediatrician’s office, the doctor said you are very well-developed and are already as advanced as a six-month old in most areas. That’s incredible! My smart, happy baby

There are more photos of you wearing your costumes in the Photo Gallery under the photo set “Halloween 09.”
