October

I can't believe October is already over! It was a pretty eventful month for us, we found out we are having a girl, Ethan turned 2, and we celebrated Halloween.

Birthday:
Unfortunately we forgot to take our camera when we celebrated Ethan's birthday. We had pizza and cupcakes at my parents' house in Preston. Ethan loves pizza and for several weeks leading up to his birthday whenever someone would say "birthday" Ethan would say "cupcake." But he got scared by the crazy birthday song so he wouldn't blow out his candles, so the next morning we put candles in his pancakes and he blew those out instead. He was spoiled with lots of new clothes, toys, and books.

Halloween:

These are some festive pajamas Grandma and Grandpa gave Ethan which he's been wearing since September, the bones glow in the dark. When we would put Ethan to bed he would lift up his arms and legs to inspect the glowing bones.


Our little Police Officer. Ethan would throw a fit everytime we tried to put his costume on, so finally Sam had to put on his "work" shirt so Ethan could also wear his "work" shirt.

For the past month we have been teaching Ethan to say "Trick or Treat" so of course we had to take him. We only planned on going to 3 or 5 houses because we didn't think he would really like it, but once he realized we got to go on a walk and people gave him candy, he was totally into it. We walked around the neighborhood for almost an hour.

We hope everyone had a fun filled October. So far we are enjoying our sugar-filled November.
