Fall


I was trying to get a cute fall picture of Carter but all he wanted to do was get all the leaves and eat them


Kevin had to go to Spokane for a week for work which was not very fun, but while he was gone I stayed with my parents which was fun. I'm sure glad they live close so I didn't have to be lonely all week and Carter sure has fun there.  We played, went on walks, canned applesauce, made mashed carrots for Carter and I sewed his dinosaur costume.

Playing with Grandma. Silly boy climbed over her shoulder then just flopped over and smiled and gave her a little head rub with his feet.

Snuggling with Grandpa

Unfortunately Carter didn't sleep too well when we were there. I think being in a different place is hard for him so he took quite a few naps in my arms which I really didn't mind until it came to night time and then he still didn't want to sleep in his bed.

A couple weeks ago Kevin got off early from work so we took Carter to the park and he sat in the swing by himself for the first time. Then we went to Olive Garden to celebrate Kevin officially being a CPA! Carter loved being at the restaurant, he wanted to watch everybody and look at all of the lights.

Halloween

This year for Halloween we decided to have a little party.  We invited a few friends from our ward and had some treats and played games. It was a lot of fun.  On Halloween we went to our ward trunk-or-treat. Here are some pictures
Carter's pumpkin. It is supposed to be a spider made from his handprints but someone was a little wiggly

we made vampire teeth and spiders for our party. I forgot to take a picture of the food before everyone came but luckily there was one of each left at the end

It was a little rainy at the trunk or treat but we had fun!

A few of Carter's favorite things

Now that Carter can get around pretty easily he has a few favorite places to explore.

He likes to go down the hall and try to see what's in the closets



He loves to climb in the bookshelf

He likes to get our shoes


And play under tables
He loves to try and get the camera or our phones

He likes to pull his diapers out and play with them

He loves to play under blankets




He likes to eat drawstrings

He loves to be outside and go for walks
He loves playing with measuring spoons, cups and tupperware



And he loves to look out the window
