Halloween Part 3!








Halloween Part 2!




Halloween with cousins Madison and McKenzie!






We had so much fun celebrating Halloween like always with Aunt Linda and Uncle John and cousins Madison and McKenzie. The twins had amazing homemade witch costumes, and they joked that John Patrick was their flying monkey from the Wizard of Oz. Cute! He was so happy to see his cousins, of course, and had so much fun trick or treating. He even managed to say "trickotreat" and "dank you!" at many houses. He didn't quite get the concept of taking the candy and leaving- he wanted to give the candy back to the people and stay for a while! Houses with dogs were his favorite, and he would cry when we had to pull him away. All in all, an fun night. excited for what next year will bring!

More fun in the leaves!





Playing in the leaves! 14 months






Halloween was a beautiful day and we took a walk in the woods by our house that afternoon. John Patrick just loves playing in the leaves, and hiking. He often leads me on a walk through our backyard and giggles as he runs down uneven ground and hills. He loves learning new words like "acorn" and "scarecrow" on our walks through the neighborhood.

John Patrick's first trip to the ER!


Mommy got an email from Daddy yesterday while at work with this picture! Poor little man slipped and bumped his eye on the coffee table yesterday. He has a pretty swollen and black and blue eye, and it got pretty cut up, which made mommy freak out and take him to ER to make sure we didn't need stitches. Luckily, he didn't, and he was such a good boy in the waiting room. He played with the few other toddlers that were there, and handed people magazines. He loved the taxi ride home, too, and kept trying to hand paperwork from the hospital to the cab driver. Quite the personality! Kept everyone in good spirits in the hospital. We are just glad he is back to his normal busy self!
