Halloween-a-palooza!

We had a party at Abuelita Rita's on Sunday, a parade and party at daycare today and then trick or treating and handing out candy. What a fun filled few days! Michael had a ball and was a non-stop bundle of energy all this week, even with a cold and double ear infection.

Here is a slideshow of the festivities and a video I shot during his parade. Note that I spent most of the video chasing him and apologizing to the other parents. Are we at the terrible two's stage already??

Happy Dancing and Cruising 'round the house

Michael has a few new tricks up his sleeves. He has started to do a "happy dance" when he gets excited. It is just too cute not to share. Oh, and check out his new big boy haircut.


Also, he has perfected his driving skills. I must say that this kid is a natural, now if I could only get him to steer...

Corn on the cob!

Michael thoroughly enjoyed his first corn on the cob. How could you not love that buttery deliciousness?

Funfilled Saturday - Community Yardsale and Pumpkin Patch Day

We had the best day on Saturday. It was our bi-annual community yardsale which always means great deals! My mom, Aunt Carmen, Monica, Gabrielle and Monica's cousin Jenny all came.

I made out like a bandit and was able to get a TON of stuff for a total of $50. I love deal grabbing. Here's what we got:



Cousins having fun!



We then went to the pumpkin patch. It's a working dairy farm that had it all, hayrides, corn maze, pumpkin patch, petting zoo, clowns, you name it. Everyone had lots of fun.

Halloween Sneak Peek

I got Michael's costume in the mail yesterday and today was the first time I got to try it on. He is the cutest lion ever! He also just started growling when I ask what does a lion say. I hope to have our schtick down by Halloween.
