Spooktacular Fun

Friday night we attended a Halloween party at New Horizon's preschool. There was a story teller, pumpkin carving, and best all lots of tasty treats! It was fun to see all of the creative costumes and watch the kids interact with their friends. Anton was a monkey and Cadel chose to be a fireman.

Here, Cadel poses with his buddy Jack (aka buzz lightyear).

While Cadel was proud of his costume, I think there was a hint of jealousy when he saw the toy story (buzz, woody) and spiderman costumes.

Growing...

The boys are growing so fast! Cadel has sprouted another inch or so in the past month, leaving us to wonder if his new pants shrunk in the wash or if he has really grown. He's looking forward to Halloween and has been enjoying raking and playing in the leaves. He loves pre-school and playing with friends on the playground.

Today was Anton's 15 month check up. He weighed in at 22 pounds and 30 inches long, putting him in the 25th percentile for weight and height. He is just starting to walk unassisted. He's signing (eat, more, shoes, light, milk, etc) and saying more words everyday(uh oh, bye bye, all done, woof woof). It's so fun to watch his personality develop. He's such a happy, playful little guy.

What the #&*@!?

Um, what I meant to say is "Is this thing real?".

Uncle Paul again has a giant pumpkin on his front step. Anton wasn't quite sure what to think. This year's specimen weighed in at over 800 pounds. We'll have to stop by again once they carve it. Cadel was less intrigued by the pumpkin and more interested in running up and down the hill in the front yard (hence the limited number of photos).
