Halloween

It's hard to believe that it's already November. Halloween is gone and Christmas is just around the corner. We had a great Halloween weekend though. We spent it in Ubly. Aiden got his hair cut again on Saturday morning. He was such a big boy this time. For the first half of the cut, he sat on the chair all by himself. My baby is growing up so fast....


Then we took him trick or treating in the afternoon. We went to a total of 6 houses and he had a pumpkin full of candy and snacks, new clothes and new toys. I sure don't remember making out like that for Halloween.




Then after dinner on Saturday he got to carve his first pumpkin. He wasn't too sure about playing with pumpkin guts at first. Then he decided he needed to put the pumpkin back together, so he put all the guts back in and put the top back on. Porter even stole a bite of pumpkin and if it were up to him, he would have ate the whole thing.



After that my friend Laura and her son Colson came over. My friend Justin also came over and we had a nice visit. Aiden and Colson got to play.

We met Justin for breakfast the next morning and Aiden ate his toast with some jelly and thought that was pretty tasty stuff. He had some of our omelets too. Then we headed back to Lansing so we could relax and adjust to the new time change.



Aiden had his 15 month check up yesterday. He's doing great. He weighs 27 lbs 4.5 oz and is 32 1/2 inches long. He's in the 85th percentile now. Except for his head...his head is off the charts. I guess he got my melon :) The doctor was glad that he was off the bottle and said he seems to be doing very well.

This coming weekend we get to see grandma and grandma Marple and some family friends for dinner on Saturday so that should be fun. The temp. on Saturday and Sunday is supposed to be in the upper 50's so hopefully we can get the lawn raked up and Aiden can jump through his first pile of leaves. We'll definitely get pictures!

Until next time...
