Happy Halloween!!





Yesterday, October 25th was not only my 30th birthday, but also our Halloween party at Alec's preschool class. I made Alec a Peter Pan costume and Aaron a Bear costume. Alec of course did not want to put the costume on at first but by the end of the morning he did not want to take it off. Adam and I went to the Grand Californian from Sunday to Monday to celebrate our 5th anniversary and when we were at Disneyland we got Alec a official Peter Pan hat to go with his costume. Alec did not want to wear it at first because he thought that the feather was a spider (?) but as soon as he got used to the hat he would not take it off his head.

Alec has been a total crack up to live with lately. He comes up with new phrases almost daily that make Adam and I just laugh hysterically. Some recent ones are, "No thanks, I'm just fine.","I can't believe you!", "Please can I have that? I asked nicely!!" and "Momma, you are foxy!" Thank you Adam for that last one. He has also become very interested into proclaming who is a boy or a girl based on whether or not they have boy genetalia. Again, thank you Adam.

Yesterday was also Aaron's 2 month birthday. He is such a joy in our lives and it is very strange to think that he has only been with us for two months...seems like forever! He is doing about the same as far as sleeping through the night. I have moved him permanately to his crib instead of the bassanette in our room. He seems to be quite comfortable there as I can put him down to bed fully awake and he will put himself to sleep with just a bit of fussyness. Aaron is smiling more and more now and also is starting to coo. I love sitting there and having conversations with him. At his two month appointment today Aaron weighed 11 lbs 5 oz and was 23 1/2 inches long. He also recieved his first shots which he did NOT like!!
