Halloween 2008

This year Michael dressed up as a dragon. In the morning we went to visit Daddy at work and then at niight I took Michael to the neighbors houses while Mike passed out candy. Michael's favorite part was helping Daddy answer the door when the trick or treators arrived. He greeted everyone with a huge smile...even the big guys with the scary masks!

At Michael's 15th month appointment he was 32 inches and 25 pounds, 15 ounces.

Pumpkins

October 30

Tonight, we carved our pumpkins. It was an interesting experience. Michael has a very sensitive gag reflex. My Mom says she takes after him. When I first cut the pumpkins, Michael gagged at the smell and then when I had him put his hands in one he threw up all over the place!! I really can't wait for him to grow out of that!! After he got over the initial gagging he was fine and enjoyed coloring his pumpkin and watching Daddy carve his pumpkin. I decided this wasn't the year to have him try toasted pumpkin seeds...maybe next year. All in all, our pumpkins turned out awesome!!

I want my truck!!

October 29

Today when we got home from the store, Michael spotted his truck in the garage. He loves to play with this truck but it was really cold and wet out from the snow the day before. I told him we would have to play later and we went inside. Michael stood at the door and furiously signed for his truck and cried. I felt so bad that I brought his truck into our front room. He was happy as a pig in mud!!!! He played in the truck for days. I even put his popcorn in it a few days later and he ate his snack while sitting in it! What can I say, this boy loves his truck!!!
