Halloween 2015

Most you you have already seen these pictures, but I thought I'd add our Halloween pictures to the blog for those of you that don't follow me on Facebook or Instagram.  I don't really know why, but I got the idea in my head to make our costumes this year.  Don't get me wrong, I've almost always made my Halloween costumes, but my idea this year involved some serious time and effort.  I saw a tutorial on Pinterest for a Peter Pan costume that I thought looked adorable and easy, so I thought it would be awesome if we were all characters from Peter Pan!  Here is the result:

I sewed/made everything except Captain Hook's wig, hat, hook, and pants, and Tinkerbell's wings.  Everything else was handmade by me.  Crazy, right?!  I was super happy with how it all turned out!  I learned lots of new things in the process.  I can promise you right now that our costumes next year will be less work for me.  Ha!

Double Digits

I'm a nearly 2 weeks late in posting this, but better late than never, right?  Aidan turned 10 months old on the 7th!  Our sweet baby boy is getting more and more personality, and I personally think that he grows cuter each day.  He's rocking 8 teeth now and is starting to stand alone.  Walking is around the corner!  He walks along the couches really well these days.

I couldn't for the life of me get a good close up picture of him this month.  It was hard enough to get a picture with the bear (whose name is Sam, in case you ever wondered), and when we turned him loose for the close ups, he just took off.  I have several pictures of his bottom as he crawled away from me...  Luckily, Travis took the following picture 6 days before Aidan turned 10 months while we were on a walk around our village.

Isn't it good?!  Hopefully I'll have better luck keeping Aidan still in a couple of weeks when I take his ELEVEN month pictures!  (Only 2 months left of this monthly project....  Don't mind me, I'll just be silently crying in the corner....)  hahaha

Seriously, though, we love this boy!  We get to celebrate his first Thanksgiving next week!  I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.  :):):)
