Happy Halloween!!

What a great night! Nathan had lots of fun and it didn't take him long to figure out what was going on. He was a little unsure at first, but when he realized that super nice people were giving him sweet treats, he was loving it. At one point, after tasting the candy bar that had just been passed out to him...he turned right around and tried to march his way back up to the same house for seconds.


And he's off! Heading out the door with his costume on and bag in hand...

Nathan's first house and he chooses...the graham crackers?? What a rookie! But he caught on quickly and redeemed himself by stocking up on peanut butter cups, chocolate bars and lollipops.

Forget the spooky ghosts, scary vampires and other creepy creatures...one of Nathan's most terrifying Halloween encounters was with this oversized raccoon.

Party At My Crib!

Nathan's a pretty good napper on most days. Luckily, it really doesn't take much to get him down. Just a few hugs and kisses. Oh, and maybe a couple other things. Let's see....today it was a giant panda, satin pillow, blanket, several binkies, pirate, monkey, birdie, teddy bear and crinkle toy. We had to put our foot down when he wanted Grandma's ceramic goose to join the party.

Ride 'Em Cowboy

Nathan's first pony ride! He had a great time (not a single tear was shed). Definitely a natural...

Bzzzzzz

Even though it's not quite Halloween yet, Nathan had a chance to sport his costume for an evening out this weekend. We all headed over to a friend's house for a birthday party...and the kids got to wear their Halloween costumes!

Our little bee...

Nathan takes his turn and a big swing at the piñata...

Nathan knew just what to do when the candy hit the ground. He managed to find (and eat) every last skittle.

Best Toy Ever

The swiffer! You should see my floors...they are so clean. And Nathan can't get enough of it! Last night, he cleaned my dining room, hallway and kitchen. Seriously, why didn't I think of this sooner??

He had so much fun (and did such a great job) that we are thinking about showing him how to use the lawn mower this weekend.

Punkin' Patch

With Halloween just around the corner, we decided to treat Nathan with a trip to the pumpkin patch! There were lots of animals to pet and a ton of pumpkins to play with. And best of all...his bestie, Mia, showed up to enjoy the day with him.

Daredevil

This may be the last picture/video/post of Nathan and a slide. Why, you ask? Well, he has just conquered the biggest and baddest slide at the park. Not only did he go down again and again, but he squealed and giggled with delight from top to bottom. And, oh...we've learned that he's definitely not afraid of heights!

Big Hair Day

Today was a big day. We took Nathan to the salon for his very first haircut!! It went about as well as I thought it would. I mean, you can't really expect much when you strap a toddler down and come at him with a sharp pair of scissors.

At first, Nathan was stoked when he saw this super cool car. He was more than happy to hop aboard...

He started to get suspicious when a stranger approached him with spray bottle in hand and began wetting down his har...

It didn't take long before Nathan had it all figured out. And he was not happy about it...

But it was so worth it...look how handsome he is!

And no hard feelings. Nathan scored a big cookie at the end and walked away one very satisfied customer!

Tooltally Obsessed!

Remember the toolbox that we gave Nathan a few weeks ago? Well, it didn’t take long before Jeremy wanted to upgrade him to something bigger and better. Needless to say, Nathan loves, loves, loves his new tool bench! There are too many holes, hooks, screws, buttons, widgets and tools to even count. It’s pretty much Nathan’s idea of heaven on earth. He has been playing with this thing for three weeks. Everyday.Non.Stop.
