This is my friend Logan going down the slide at the park. I went down the slide too but Mommy couldn't get a picture where you could actually see me at all. It was fun!
Here is Anna, she was staring over the rope at Quinn's doggy. She was VERY excited!
Quinn and I shared a swing, we were both squirming and wiggling, screaming and laughing....Anna and Logan were in the swing next to us....good times!
Here I am in the swing all by myself...it was fun but I like it better when I have someone to swing with me.
I look funny in this picture because I was blowing raspberries....I love to do that, it feels and sounds funny!

Here I am with my buddy Carter at the pumpkin patch. I'm giving my "boy, it's been a hard day at work on the farm" look.
This is my buddy Quinn and I, he's the one who likes my cheeks. We had so much fun! Quinn's mommy took off his shirt and let him do his Calvin Klien ad impression in just his jeans....mommy says he's a stud muffin.
Here I am at the farm on my first hay ride! The hay was a little itchy, but we still had a great time!
I picked out this pumpkin all by myself! It took some convincing but Mommy eventually gave in and let me have this one to decorate....The finished product is in the blog before this one...
Saturday we got up really early and went on a walk for the cure. We went with a bunch of people from our breastfeeding support group....mommy's shirt said "breastfeeding reduces the risk of breastcancer" on the back. Below is a picture of what my shirt looked like...
This is Carter, he's wearing a onesie just like the one I wore....we were all breastfed babies so it was only appropriate to have onesies that said, "boobies make everything better". The guy who made them put an S on the end of make, mom says it wasn't suppose to be there...I told her that it's okay, we're babies, we don't know the difference....

Yesterday I went to the pumpkin patch with my mommy and alot of my friends....it was tons of fun! We went in a corn maze, saw some animals, and decorated pumpkins....jpg)
Pumpkins are my favorite color, so I love them!
I picked this pumpkin out all by myself....well, mommy pointed me in the right direction. There were lots of pumpkins, mommy said she would have choose a different one....but not me! Mommy also helped me decorate it...that black blob is my hand print, Mommy put my name and a black kitty on it for me too!
When Mommy and I got home, mommy took off all my clothes because I was super dirty! Then Daddy came home and put his hat on me, and let me play with his watch....silly Daddy!

Mommy & Daddy bought me some new clothes yesterday. They decided that I should have some that fit just right rather than having to put me in clothes that are too big.
My overalls are still a little long, but I'll grow into them in no time! This is the back, Mommy really likes the pockets!
I grabbed a coaster off the end table, it's fun to play with! We're going to the pumpkin patch tomorrow with all my friends....it's going to be a blast! Mommy is going to let me wear my overalls two days in a row....how great is that!?!

Mommy let me try on my Halloween costume today to make sure it fit! It made me feel like I had super powers, I even tried to take a step or two!
I was flapping my hands and trying to fly....guess I gotta get the walking down first!
Mommy also put me in this pumpkin costume that my cousin Finny sent. Talk about a grumpy pumpkin!!!
The other day my mommy and Daddy watched my friend Carter for a few hours. We had lots of fun! Here I am trying to help Carter jump in my jump-a-roo....he can do it on his own but I'm older so I'm always trying to help him grow! 
Carter and I did lots of things, I read him a story, crawled all around him, and we tried to play catch. Mommy says that Carter thinks I'm funny cuz he was laughing at me!
This is me right before bedtime tonight. I'm in my new snowman pjs, they're big boy jammies cuz they don't have feet. Mommy put my socks on to keep my toes warm. I was dancing....I love to dance! Mommy tried to get video but I'm a little camera shy with the video thing.

Mommy was helping me walk. She helped me walk down the steps across from the capitol building. I liked walking down the steps, it was fun!
Here I am touching the wall at the Vietnam War Memorial. I don't know why but there were lots of people there taking my picture and gushing over me.
Here's Mommy and I sitting on some steps at Arlington Cemetary. It was by the tomb of the un-named soldier. I was clapping for the camera!
Here I am sitting on the same steps...only this time I'm all by myself. Mommy wasn't far away though.
This is the day we left DC. Mommy and Daddy took one last walk with me to the White House.
Our last night in DC we ate at the Hard Rock Cafe. It was fun! There were all these ladies that couldn't stop saying how cute I am, I just gave them my best smile to make them melt! They did!
Daddy gave me a piggy back ride infront of the Capitol Building. It was such a beautiful day!
Mommy and I are standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial with the Washington Monument in the background. It was a bit chilly, but good walking weather!
Daddy and I got our picture taken with the Washington Monument in the background too. Mommy says I got Daddy's smile!
Here's Mommy being silly climbing in the big cement DC structure. I wanted to join her up there, but Mommy and Daddy said no.

Mommy took this picture right before my opperation. See my little skin tag by my ear? This is my last picture with it. Mommy says she misses it, she liked to nibble on my nub.
Here I am at home after my opperation. They put me to sleep for the proceedure, then put a bandage on my ear. It didn't bleed too much.
This is my little scar where my nub use to be. It's healing really well. I haven't picked at it or anything. Mommy and Daddy said that I'm being very good about it.
