Happy Halloween!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Landon's first Halloween! On Friday night I took Landon trick-or-treating around to the Annandale businesses with Jess, Chad, Lilly, Loren, Ashley, and Jackson. Landon seemed to think he was really a monkey and tried to hang upside down the whole time we walked Main Street! My arm was so sore afterwards! Notice him in the picture...

Landon's First Halloween!

Carving pumpkins. Landon dug his hands in a few times, but lost interest right away. All he wanted to do was chew on the top of the pumpkin.

Our 8 Month Old Little Big Man!

We just can't believe that Landon is 8 months old already! This has been the fastest 8 months of our lives! We have been so busy with our new house and me going back to work that we feel like we've missed the last month of Landon's life! He has two teeth, rolling and scooting everywhere, and so much fun! He loves to laugh, talk, and play with everything in sight. He's so curious and interested in everything he can get his hands on. His next dr appt isn't until next month, so I am excited for that to see what his growth has been. Out of curiousity sake I stepped on the scale with him today and it looks like he is about 22 lbs!!! That's the average size of a 12 month old, according to my books. (Grandma Rita tells me to throw all those books out the window...she gets so annoyed by them.) He loves daycare and the kids that go there and especially Jenny, his daycare provider. That makes me feel so much better knowing that he loves her and is happy there. Landon and I go to an ECFE class every Tuesday night at Discovery Elementary and we have met some very fun and nice families there as well. We look forward to seeing Peyton, Owen and Eli every week! We have just been keeping busy, trying to stay healthy, and enjoying each and every day that we are blessed with our little man!
