Halloween

This year for Halloween, besides doing the trunk and treat, we painted a pumpkin and carved a pumpkin. Walker really enjoyed painting one as you can tell from the pictures.

 I turned my back for one second and he painted the bottom of his foot because of the FHE activity we did with him.

He wouldn't put his hands inside of the pumpkin. He is really wierd when it comes to textures.

Guess who is 2 mths

Julian

10 lbs 6 oz

22 inches long

 

They change so quickly! He went from a tiny little ball, into a smiley happy baby. He loves to smile, especially at Walker. He is also cooing more and more each day. I love it when he sneezes because he makes a funny little cooing sound at the end, like it's a relief coo (I don't know if that made sense). He still sleeps the majority of the day. He is only up for about and hour at a time and on average sleeps about 7-8 hours at night. But last night he did a long stretch of sleep, he went from 8:30 p.m. to about 6:15 a.m. I was so proud!!! He likes to go on walks in the carrier, and he'll normally fall asleep. He likes to be held a lot or to be able to see everything that is going on. When he is held he likes to be facing outward or he will fuss. Things he doesn't like: the swing, and the pacifier. That's pretty much it. Overall he is a happy baby and we are trying to enjoy every minute of it because it goes by so quickly.

 

Trunk and Treat / pictures

Our ward just had their Halloween party. They had activities going on inside the building but nothing really age appropriate for Walker so we just waited out side for the Trunk and Treat.

At first I didn't want to take two kids by myself but then I thought that it would be to pass out candy with Walker. Lets just say he really enjoyed putting candy in the kids baskets, he was such a good little helper. I really didn't want to bring any candy home but what they heck, later when Eric showed up we took him around. People asked what he was, I had to quickly think because I am to cheap to buy a costume, and said that he was a construction worker because he was dirty :)

I couldn't get one of him looking because he was to distracted.

 

A few new pictures:

 

 

Also, I made a goal to try a new park every week to see which one I like the best and this is the one we went to this week.  

 

Brownies

I was wanting to do something with Walker, so we made brownies.

 and of course we have to add one of Julian.

pics of Walker

 I guess Walker likes the car seat that he hated so much as an infant :)

 

 This is how you watch the game, I guess.

 

Walker likes to clean up Julian if he has spit-up on him. He is such a good helper.
