Happy Halloween

These pictures are blurry, but little Tigger wouldn't sit still so they were the best ones we could get. He actually didn't mind being in the costume. He just wouldn't stop moving!

Our neighbors gave him a banana when he went to trick or treat. He loved it!!
Finally one good picture of Pooh (cousin Henry) and Tigger.
Tigger running more after the photo op.

We had such a nice Halloween. All the family came over for chili/soup and hot dogs. Then we even went to a couple of neighbor houses. Carter liked giving out candy to our trick or treate's.

Spooktacular at the Zoo

On our way to Spooktacular, Carter was so good to ride with his costume on.
Feeding the goat.
He was excited! He really liked spooktacular.
Tried to get a family picture, but Carter wasn't too excited.
Yay, finally Tigger got to run around at the end of it.

Carter's first spooktacular was fun. He was not too thrilled about the candy, but did like the petting zoo and watching some of the animals. It was kind of cool, but not too bad for late October in Missouri. We went Friday, Oct 29th, to kick off our Halloween weekend.

Some Mid to Late Oct Pics

In his high chair ready to eat!
Showing us his dancing moves!!! He is a great dancer...it is so fun to watch him.
Look at all that hair!!
I was trying to get a picture of his Halloween pjs, but he did not want to cooperate.
Here is the only one I really got. It is hard when they start moving...they don't stop!

Rutledge-Wilson Farm- Oct 9th

Carter looking for the ponies.
He found the pumpkin he liked.
Tried to get a family pic, but Carter wasn't cooperating.
Sitting on a hay bale.
He doesn't even need his stroller!

We had family pictures with Clay family and then that afternoon we went to the Rutledge-Wilson Farm. Carter liked all the animals and the pumpkins. It was a really warm day in October!

Some fun Oct Pictures-14 months old

Mom, get that camera away from me!! I do not want another picture taken!!
Look at that grumpy face! One of his newest expressions...cracks me up every time I see it.
Had his first ride on a horse at cousin Jeremiah's 2nd birthday. He wasn't too sure about it, but did really well.
I was trying to get him to smile at the camera. Mom looks a little silly, but what a cute picture of Carter!
This picture just made me laugh! We were going to church at Jefferson Ave that Sunday morning. Carter just looked so adorable in his sweater vest I had to take pictures.

Bedtime

Since Carter was about 12 months old we have been doing the same bedtime routine. Some nights go better than others, but majority of the time he is really easy. After jammies are on and diaper is changed we read a bedtime story. Most night a couple of stories.

We talk about some things...Carter trying to give me the sad face that he doesn't want to go to bed yet. I say, it is best to go to bed early and you will feel so good in the morning. Sometimes I think I should go to bed around 8:30! I will feel so rested in the morning.
Then we give a kiss to mommy and daddy. So sweet! Carter's kisses are the best. They can make you forget about everything else!
The the usually yell, Hey I am not ready for bed yet...time to play more?
OK, one last smile. See you in the morning!!!

Carter has always been so great about following his routine. Such a happy little boy.

Boomer Sooner!

Watching the OU game.
Trying to show Meme how to play.
Playing with some toys! The games are long so we get distracted!!
Why all the pics mom!!

Usually on Saturday afternoons/evenings we get together with Clay's grandparents and mom to watch the Sooners play. Carter got his first jersey this year. Some of his other family is trying to teach him to call the hogs, but he just shakes his head! Too funny, Carter will have to choose his team one day, but for now will go with daddy's team.
