Halloween and Catching Up

Needless to say, I'm more than a little behind again. We've been busy, as usual for the last two months. Football every Friday night, and lots of things to fill up the days in between.
Bryce had his 6 month check up on 10/11/2010 and weighed in at 14 lbs. even he was also an even 25 in. This put him in the 5th and 10th percentiles respectively. Although he is quite small, he is perfectly proportioned! He is changing like crazy and will be 7 months old tomorrow. He started sleeping in his room this past week, and did great with it. He has always slept in his own bed, just in our room, so I guess that was mostly just for me! When I started disturbing him every time I moved, I decided it was time to move him out. It's a long way across the house, but at least I have a video monitor. Now we're all sleeping a little better.

Blaine is growing up way to fast. Our conversations with him these days are very entertaining. He has recently become obsessed with 'the band' as he calls it. I'm sure this is from us frequenting football games and 'peppew-wallies'. He has an impressive imagination and can turn almost anything into a 'band'. This is usually followed by him insisting that we all stand and put our hand on our 'tummy' and the other hand behind our back while he hums his version of the star spangled banner. Next up is usually the direction to hold your hand in the air with the other behind your back while he hums his version of the Murfreesboro Alma Matter. Then we must cheer for the rattlers and the 'peppew-wally' is over.

We had a nice Halloween. Todd and Blaine.......mostly Todd carved a good looking jack-o-lantern. We set it out at Grammy's house while we went trick-or-treating, which Blaine loved! He was dressed as a monkey and was a little apprehensive at first, but once he started to see his bucket filling up with candy...........he was over it! Bryce didn't really have a costume.........just a cute Halloween outfit! He enjoyed riding in the stroller and eventually went to sleep.

These first three pictures were taken several weeks ago on a Sunday morning before church, and the others are obviously Halloween pics! ENJOY!
