Happy Halloween!

Is it a Dragon? Is it a Dinosaur? Is it Barney? Who knows! Who cares?! It's adorable! Stuey had a blast yesterday going to Daddy's office and Trick-or-Treating. His favoite "treats" were a toothbrush and a toy car! Oh, and the Crunch bar he chewed through the wrapper to get to! Today we were going to go to Greenwood Ave up the street to Trick-or-Treat at the businesses but alas, in true Seattle form it is raining so instead we're staying home to carve pumpkins!

Craft time and Bath time

Two more favorite activites are bathtime and "craft time" (aka, coloring with crayons on a the table!). Bathtime is always a splash and various rubber duckies (farmer duck, pig duck) plus Star Wars figurines make great friends in the tub!

We've also taken to coloring and are VERY excited about it. We like using multiple crayons at one time and the drawing ends up on the paper most of the time. It's so sweet seeing him sitting at the table, concentrating on his art.

Bus

Stuey's now identifying all things with 4 wheels as "bus"! His favoite book is "100 First Machines" which has LOTS of 4-wheeled vehicles to point to! Other favorite words are "ba" (ball), "butts" (just about anything), "whassthis?" (what's this), "uh oh" (when he has thrown something on the floor!) and "mama" (Mom and Dad are both mama)!

Fall is here!

The little man is having a blast this fall picking up leaves and rocks up and down the street. He likes also likes to point out all airplanes and trucks he encounters on his daily walks. He usually says "bye" to people,trucks, and dogs when they are out of earshot.
