For Halloween we had a get together with the Schanz Family. All of the kids were so cute, but I have to say my pirate took the cake in adorableness. He hated to trick or treat and Justin ended up holding him the entire time. We had a great month, and I am sad to say that the month of October is over. It is my favorite month! The weather, the decor, the fun Halloween activities...everything. Now it is November, so I guess bring on the cold.


A picture of the outside of our house. They gave us the close date as Nov. 18th. We are getting really excited! I even got a new dinning table! A picture will come once it is shipped in.

Justin and I had a real date while his mom was in town over the deer hunt. We had so much fun and thank you to Darlene for watching Porter, even while he was fussy with his first ear infection. Babies are so confusing and how do you know if it's their ears, teeth, or mood? Communication is such a blessing!

Oh my goodness, It has been so long since my negligence in blogging! Porter is growing and changing so much. He loves to destroy everything! Pull out all of my makeup, then throw all of his toys all over the room, then pull the books off the shelf, then take all of the DVD's out of their place, then bang on my pans, then yell for some food, and then do it all over again babbling the entire time . I has a little toy walker that is so funny to watch him cruise around in it, and he has had many first steps and falls. I am not quite sure what to count as a step, foot movement or foot movement that is controlled afterward? Oh, and for everyone who thinks Porter is a tank...at his last doctor's apt he was 17.7 lbs, which is in the less than 5% for his age. He is just a tiny man, but he eats more than any baby ever!
