First Halloween



I wish we had Halloween at least once a month. I loved dressing up Brayden in his pumpkin costume. He was so cute. We went to a Halloween party as "Cardiac Arrest." Cory dressed up as a police officer and I dressed up as a heart. It was fun. Brayden was the life of the party, so happy. I think he really likes to be around a lot of people. He was being so good, even when I had to peel away Cory from playing the video game Rock Star at 10:30 pm. I love this kid!
A couple days ago, I discovered his first tooth coming in. I felt like such a proud mom! Brayden has been such a dream to take care of so far: he sleeps through the night, he eats well (as you can see), he's almost always happy unless he's hungry or tired, and so fun to tickle. But his teething has made him a little more grumpy, he not sleeping through the night anymore, and he lets out little cries a lot in his sleep. I guess I can handle an almost perfect child for a little while, but I'm hoping he'll go back to his perfect ways soon enough. Cory keeps telling me that if all of our kids are as good as Brayden, he will want to have five or six more. Uhmm. . .

What a darling picture! I'm glad you got him sitting in the leaves before they were all gone! He looks so adorable in his pumpkin costume!

So where's the pics of you and Cory? You know I wanna see some of that!

Poor boy cutting teeth! Sorry he's been grouchy! Try tylenol, and baby orajel...that's what worked for my kids... And stick his teething ring in the fridge so it's cold...
Good luck!
