Happy Halloween!!!!

We took Tyler to pick out our pumpkins last weekend. It was a nice fall day, so we dressed him up in his Halloween costume (and yes, that IS an octopus costume that he is wearing) and took a few pics. Here are just a few of our favorites.

We will be dressing him up again tonight, provided that he is on his best behavior! We will take him to a few of the neighbors’ houses, and then he will “help” us to hand out candy until his bedtime. He seems to really like his costume, and my guess is that he is able to play with the tentacles, so he isn’t even aware that he’s dressed up!

Also, Tyler’s really been working on pulling up and scooting in the last few days. We finally realized that if we would just stop hounding him, he’d probably WANT to do it more. And we were right about that! He’s a man on a mission now! His daycare teachers even told Travis this morning that while he isn’t really crawling, he’s moving around the place somehow! They’ll put him on the floor and before they know it, he’s scooted his way all over the place! The same thing happens at home now too. Just yesterday, I had him on the kitchen floor, playing with a wooden spoon and a bowl. I turned around to clean some bottles and when I turned back to him, he had made his way over to the kitchen cabinets! He’s getting quick!!!!
