Trunk or treat

Tonight we went to a trunk or treat at Ty's new best friend Van's church. Ty was a monkey and Van was a lion. After putting on our monkey costume at home - he tried to eat the fake banana attached to his costume - so we had to get a real one. Here we are trying to eat it in peace - but momma keeps taking pictures.
....need a little more....

momma......
okay, I'll be a monkey. OO-OO
AH-AH (see the banana?)

trunk or treating with Van. It went okay - until Ty saw spiderman - he did not like the mask covering the little boy's face and started screaming and clung to my leg.

showing off his trick or treat bag mom made for him. :)

Be on the lookout for more pictures from Halloween night!

Tricky

As I was cooking dinner tonight Ty kept asking for cheese, after two slices I said he has to wait for dinner. I turn my back to stir something at the stove and then look down. He just has a huge open mouth smile so I of course think he just likes helping with dinner. But then I realize he keeps opening his mouth and giving me a really happy smile-then I see it-a half chewed green bean that he stole off the counter while I had my back turned. Ha. So I prompty filled up a plate of beans for him to eat. We are both tricky tricky. (wink wink!)

Two more!

Around Ty’s birthday he had a fever for about 4 days and no other symptoms.  It was a rough week – he was having trouble sleeping – waking up in the night 3 or 4 times.  No one got much sleep.  Well, while we were learning body parts we decided to count his teeth – turns out he was getting his two year top molars right on time.  Now that they have finally broken through he’s sleeping and eating better! Yay!

Pumpkins

Halloween is almost here and so we got into the spirit last weekend by carving a pumpkin and doing a pumpkin craft.

Here is our pumpkin craft. Can you guess who did which pumpkins?

Daddy carved the big pumpkin while Tyler watched intently.

Cleaning leafs

We kind of have fall here-in that leafs do fall from the only kind of tree they have here-they are tiny leafs and here Tyler is cleaning the leafs off his playground. When the wind blows he screams no because it knocks more leafs off the trees and onto his slide. I rode my bike up here 2 miles hauling Ty in the bike trailer so let's hope I can make it back up the big hill without walking.
