Halloween Fun

Yesterday we went to visit Grandmom & Grandpop so Kevin could test out his costume. Kevin was a pea-in-the-pod. You will notice he is a little too big for his pod, that's why I cute holes for his feet to make it more comfy.

Today we had a Halloween Party with all the babies from the Mom's Group. The babies had no idea what was happening, but the parents sure took a ton of photos!


Then, once we got home, Kevin was still so excited for Halloween :)

This is not a costume...

..it's his new winter coat. Thanks Grandmom for Kevin's warm winter coat!
It's a little too big, maybe it will last the long winter season, and still fit him by April. (Remember, it was snowing the day Kevin was born).

Halloween photos to come!

Kevin laughs so hard each night before his bath :)

The daily routine

I have been back to work for almost 2 months, yuck! While I am desperately trying to arrange a part-time job, luckily Kevin has settled into a very happy routine at school. By the time we get home at night, I have a precious hour alone with with Kevin before he goes to bed. If he is in a good mood, I am treated to laughs & giggles. Lately he is so frustrated because all he wants to do is sit up! He is so close, but by the end of the day he is too tired to hold the pose for more than a few seconds before he tips.

Here he is tonight, just chillin' on the sofa. This was after our big adventure to get the mail - what fun! He likes to greet everyone in our lobby :)

First of many, a ride on Dad's shoulders on Saturday


ps - if I have been slacking on the blog lately, I will make up for it this weekend. Saturday we are taking a family portrait & Sunday is Kev's Halloween Party. More photos to come...

Tailgate in IOWA

This weekend we took Kevin to his FIRST IOWA TAILGATE! The party was not as wild as our old days in school, but we had a great time. The highlight of the trip was that my cousin Lori surprised me and came all the way from Philadelphia to Iowa. It was her first trip to Iowa and her first time meeting Kevin.

6 months old

This picture was taken this morning, he is still kind of sleepy:

This one was taken tonight, he had so much fun in the bath:

This is a really fun age. Kevin is so close to sitting up by himself. I am so excited for him to be able to sit up and enjoy the world for an entirely new view. He is eating rice cereal with peaches, carrots, applesauce, and bananas. Next week we should try some veggies (but the peas are soooo gross!)

For Uncle Dick & David...
