happy halloween

Ty had a really bad cold so he didn't go to the trunk or treat or even out to the neighbors. We put on his costume to get a few pictures.

Ty did not want to keep his lion head on...

...so daddy decided to wear it

happy little lion

Climbing on the LoveSac; Ty's favorite pastime

My mom brought us some delicious, homemade gourmet caramel apples

happy birthday daddy

Opening gifts with a tired little Ty

Enjoying a delicious cheesecake

Celebrating at his mom's

14 months

Fourteen things Ty does:

gives High 5

roars like a lion

pulls daddy's ears

climbs stairs stealthily

claps his hands together

plays the plug game in the bathtub

watches the cows behind our house

gets excited when he sees other kids

climbs on & off the LoveSac properly

chews on the velcro straps of his shoes

laughs or fusses when mommy says "no"

flosses his teeth with the ribbon on balloons

shakes his head "no" even when he means "yes"

gently places his sippy cup down when done drinking

cookie

Ty had his first cookie (oatmeal craisin chocolate chip)

and made a good mess!

LoveSac

Ty loves to climb onto the LoveSac

hospital

Allan had his tonsils removed and his uvula clipped. Notice the high tech television. It was more than 20 years old. What a good sport!

happy birthday to me

We celebrated my birthday a couple days early with Allan's mom. She made a delicious roast which I hope to replicate. We had good conversation and enjoyed a tasty cake.

My friend surprised me with the most scrumptious peanut butter cheesecake treats. Thanks Jen, you made my day!

I wanted to go to The Mandarin and celebrate but they were closed. We went to El Matador instead. What a disappointment; it's no wonder we never eat there.

I had a great afternoon with my mom who came down to visit and a fun evening with my boys.
