Happy Halloween!



We had a great Halloween to celebrate Zander's first! Our friend Manissa suggested we throw a party for all the friends with kids...and the list is growing! We are going to have to finish the upstairs just to have all our friends and their growing families over! Zander's had a great time with all his cousins and friends. On Sunday October 30th, we had the party and a full house with lots of good food. Bryan, Rick, Tony, and my Dad all headed to the Lions Broncos game while the rest of us celebrated! I have been waiting on more pictures but in the meantime, here is what I've got. On the 31st, Zander put on his Jack-O-Latern PJ's from Aunt Lori and we passed out candy until Zman passed out himself. It was all lots of fun and Zander was an adorable puppy!

The Pumpkin Patch!







Today our friend Brynn had her 4th birthday party at Rockcreek Farms Pumpkin Patch. We had a great time and Zander LOVED the pumpkins. He got soooo upset when we would pick him up away from the pumpkins and talked to his new pumpkin until he fell asleep on the way home!

Zanders on the Move! And here come the accident reports...

At home, Zander has been sitting up in his crib. On Wednesday when I picked him up from daycare, Ms. Christine reported he is now standing in his crib! On Thursday morning, we found him standing in his crib at home and we can't keep him down!

Yesterday, after an especially tough day at work, I looked forward to picking up Zander for some cuddle time! I arrived to TWO accident reports! He hadn't had any so far....and although he is a master at standing, he hasn't figured out that he needs to hold on our improve his balance! He stood and let go to fall on toys in two different incidents. I found my little man with a fat lip and a red bump on his head but he was especially cuddly and happy to see Mom.

This morning (very early, by the way, at 2AM) he figured out how to stand by his aquarium and turn on the music in his crib. And today he showed Dad how good he is at crawling! Let the baby proofing began...Zander is on the move!
