First Halloween

For Halloween this Year I had a Fantastic idea for mine and Daniel's costumes. Unfortunately since baby (ha i keep forgetting I can call him Calvin now) came early I was not able to do it.... But I'll still tell you my grand idea. I had spent most of Thursday making Daniel's part of the costume (thinking now I should have taken a pic of it-- because now it is all pinkished up---darn)
Daniel's costume... I made him a sweet car!! It even had real lights. I put two slits in the box and placed two batterized candles in the slits, placed a clear plastic cup over the top w/red silky paper (used for presents) when you turned the lights on it made the red turn orange! So cool.
My Costume... me in all black with yellow dash marks going down my entire body wearing a construction hat with a sign on it saying Speed Bump Ahead.

I hope you get it or else I'll be saddened. You'll have to ask Lex to send pics of what happened to that car I had a blast making but never got to use.

Last Friday we had a Halloween Party with Daniel's family! Calvin got a skunk hat from a relative so I wanted to dress him up as a skunk but unfortunately the hat was way too big for his head. Maybe next year. So instead he was a frog with his froggy outfit and froggy blanket and froggy stuffed animal. (sorry forgot to take a pic)

On Saturday he was a Rock and Roll dude!

Sunday he was a missionary! 
Shae came to visit and she was so excited to come see him that we had a replay of how excited she was as she ran and jumped onto Daniel. She loved every minute of being with him and would pounce on every opportunity to hold him. She's going to be the best mommy

 Then on Halloween we dressed him up as an AllStar.. he wasn't too happy with me as I kept trying to snap Pictures of him instead of feeding him.



Mom and Dad finally Got to see Calvin Last Tuesday!! I was in my bedroom and I could hear her running up the stairs as fast as she could while saying . . . I have to See my BABY!!! It was so cute! Calvin was so happy to meet them both.

 Our first Family Photo.. the only one that looks cute is Calvin. Daniel looks good too but he looks so small compared to me.
 I could stare at little Calvin all Day!!

  7. We're a little jealous with all that hair he has, what a cute kid. It's so fun to dress them up, even though they hate it most of the time. And i can imagine mom's scream, that makes me laugh.
