Halloween

I'm still a little behind with blogging, but I'm catching up! Madelyn turned 7 months on Oct. 18th and she's now a very busy little girl. She wants to grab and eat the paper that I put next to her for her monthly pics! :) She's mastered getting up on her knees and all fours and rocking back and forth. She also scoots backwards, and is very close to moving her hands and being able to crawl! Her disposition is super sweet and most of the time she's all smiles! Still doesn't have any teeth yet, but wants ALL toys/objects/hands in her mouth, so I'm sure those pearly whites will appear soon.
My baby can read! I like this pics b/c it actually looks like she's reading.

Joseph had a fall festival at his preschool at the end of Oct. It was supposed to be outside in the grassy area, but it rained that day, so they moved it inside the church instead. He had so much fun playing the games and eating candy. Nan, Pop, and Maddy came too!



Pop trying to show J how to throw the ball to knock down the bottles.....
Joseph won a "dum dum lollipop" and those are his favorite candy, although he doesn't get them often.
Miss Maddy all dressed up in her pumpkin attire....


He was so proud that he got to pick which pumpkin he wanted to take home. He loves holding and talking about pumpkins!

My sweet pumpkin
Gramma Sue and Grampa Joe sent Joseph and Maddy a nice Halloween treat. Maddy was happy to get some puffs and baby food and Joseph loved his goldfish crackers and treats!
Joseph is in heaven with the balloons!!!!
Thanks Gramma Sue and Grampa Joe! You made his day with such a fun surprise!Joseph loves Elmo and wanted to be Elmo for Halloween, but he wouldn't leave the costume on. He unzipped it all the way down as soon as I got it on him. Thankfully I had a backup costume that he really wanted to wear.
Amazingly he never tried to take the ears off. A piece of velcro under his chin held them on and he LOVED the ears b/c when you squeeze each ear, they make a squeaky sound. :)
My loves....



Joseph had SO much fun trick or treating in our neighborhood this year! He made it for an hour and loved saying trick or treat, getting the candy, and saying thank you. He was the cutest mouse ever!
He sat down in the neighbors driveway to get into his candy. Sweet boy!
Maddy wanted to eat her costume..
By about 7pm Joseph had enough and wanted his costume OFF!
We dumped all his candy out and Maddy found some that she liked!
And Joseph found one of his favorite lollipops!
What a fun night! I can't wait until next year when Maddy will be walking too! So much to look forward to!
