Halloween Fun

Hello! October has been busy. I feel like I say that a lot! Tim still loves his job and I am into the swing of things at school. We have yet to decorate the new baby's room. Although Cameron is going to Papa and Nana's house this weekend so we can paint some rooms.

Cameron has settled down now and gotten used to her new routine. She used to throw tantrums when we picked her up from daycare, but she hasn't done that in a while. You may not believe me because she puts on a quite a good show for company. If she likes you she will do a "run." She sees you and then runs away. She runs around the house yelling RUNNING, RUNNING! It is pretty cute. Although we think everything she does is cute. She does funny things like pretending to wash herself in the tub - 'washing, washing' she says and she rubs in the bubbles to her arms. She peed in her potty on Weds. It might have been a happy coincidence though. She likes to sit on her potty while you are sitting on the big one. "Mommy too!" she tells me and pats the big potty. She is talking so much. She says thank you, welcome, bless you, plus she is practically speaking in full sentences. "What was that?" she said to me today when the wind blew the door shut. Must be daycare.

Cameron still loves to wear whatever she wants. She might be the only kids that must wear her jacket and hat to go outside.

This October we went to two pumkin patches. One with Grandma Sue, Great Grandma, Poopa, Max, Maddie and Aunt Terry. We also went with some friends from our summer playdate group. Cameron loves to be outside and run around. There were mazes and hayrides to keep the young-ins busy.

Here are some photos from the pumpkin patches! There was even a princess telling stories at one of the patches.

In addition to all the fun pumpkin patches we celebrated Tim's birthday. We had a little party with Tim's side of the family. It was a fun, busy day. It's so nice to be able to have more than 2 other people over at the same time - and not be squished. We all had places to sit and eat at the same time!

We had a fun Halloween. Tim worked hard carving a princess pumpkin for Cameron the night before. He busted out his Dremel tools and spent 45 minutes making pumpkin perfection.

Cameron was a flower and we took her to a few houses. She said her own version of trick or treat and she was quite thrilled at people giving her candy. We mostly took her to meet some more of the neighbors. Saturday morning we took off for the cabin. It was a beautiful weekend - perfect weather. Cameron followed Max around and chased Maddie. They jumped off the picnic table into a huge pile of leaves thanks to Poopa and Tim. The kids had so much fun playing in the leaves and throwing acorns into the lake.

October has flown by and now we are off into November, which is sure to fly by as well. Hope you all are happy and healthy!
