What a holiday! Dressing up and decorating pumpkins! Mom and Dad decided that I needed some time to myself to explore my creative side, so I got to use a marker to decorate my pumpkin, instead of Dad doing it for me. No children were harmed in the creating of this pumpkin (minus the marker nose).
I just got back from my first time treat or treating! 🙂 I had a great time dressing up in my costume from Aunt Becky. I got to see Gayle and my boy AJ! What a great day! 🙂
Mom and Dad have already had several photo requests for what I have been doing all day, so here’s the first round. I started out the day trying oatmeal cereal for the first time, I liked it A LOT, it has a much more interesting taste and texture than boring ole rice cereal. Then Mom and I studied my pumpkin, we’ll be decorating it in a bit. Later they put me in my pumpkin otfit to get ready for carving! More pictures to come later!
Mom, Dad, and I took advantage of the beautiful fall weather to take a ride on the parkway. I had my first encounters with leaves and WIND! It was so windy today it almost knocked me over! I enjoyed seeing all the colors and cruching through the leaves (luckily mom stopped me before I put them in my mouth). I also got to see Buffalo Mountain, I’m a true Floyd boy now!
More changes have been the story of my 23rd week. Dad bought me a piano I can kick with my feet, since I’m so into standing and stomping. In addition, not only am I sitting better, talking TONS, but I’m starting to “swim”–looks like crawling will be right around the corner.
Mom, Dad, and I had a great weekend. It started on Friday when my girl Hannah came to see me. I loved listening to her talk and snuggling with her. She’ll be my babysitter soon enough!
Then Granny and Grandpa came down to see us for dad’s birthday (Tuesday) and Aunt Beth came with them! I haven’t seen her in a long time! She sang and read to me and I talked a bunch to her. We had a great weekend!
I’m pretty sure Mom will start crying if she reflects on how I have changed over the last 5 months. So enjoy the pictures!

Here’s to another incredible month!
Mom and Dad bought me a new Hokie hat that I had to show off today, must have provided some good luck for our big win over BC. Good luck to Super T and the Gators tonight, my aunt Becky is trying to raise me a Gator!
I had a great day with Mom and Dad filled with eating cereal, sitting, listening to music, and practicing being on my stomach—crawling is just around the corner!
Yup – I am the big two-one today! Not the big 21, but 21 weeks – Mom and Dad are afraid I am growing up too quickly!
Speaking of growing up, I’ve been busy trying to roll over from my back to my belly but haven’t quite got there yet. I really can roll over that way but choose not to – it’s no fun being on my belly!
Enjoy the new pictures!
For the first time in a month Mom and Dad have me all to theirselves. I’m just such a popular man, everyone wants to visit me all the time. Since Mal and Pap wanted to still see me I inspired them to join my ever-growing Skype list. They are still working out the kinks, but I definitely saw and heard them, which made me very happy.
I also went up the craft show and enjoyed the fresh air and riding in my stroller. Enjoy the pictures of me playing with Mom and Dad! 🙂 Oh, everyone always says what a happy baby I am, I thought I would give you one crying picture. I hardly ever cry, but this teething stufff has me all whacked out.
