HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Sorry I've been so slow in posting this week. We've been on vacation - more about that another day when I have time to post some pictures . . .

Today is Halloween - my second one! Daddy and I carved my pumpkin today. I got to clean out all of the "pumpkin guts". It was gooey and fun! We made a scary jack-o-lantern!

Daddy finally let me do some carving - something about sharp knives and all. My saw seemed to work just fine! Note my secret ingredient to make a super gooey pumpkin - eggs! Bet you never thought of that!
Then we went Trick-Or-Treating. We all went as Dalmations. Count the Dalmations . . . . daddy is one, Copper is two, I am three, and my spotty dog stuffed animal is four. Have you ever seen so many Dalmations in one place?

Happy Halloween!

Lots of Visitors!



I had lots of visitors this weekend. First - some snow came to visit! We've had lots of bad weather the last few Saturdays but today we had snow and it stuck to the ground. You can still see the leaves on some of our trees. Daddy says the snow will be melted by this afternoon - hum, snow and sunshine. How cool!

Then some of my family came to visit. Some of them I have never met before. My Grandpa and Grandma G, My Great-Grandma G, and my Aunt Betty Ann and Uncle Keith. It was fun to have them visit.

This is me and my Great Grandma. Mommy says that I only have one great-grandparent left, but I think they're all GREAT!

Sure signs of Fall!

Pumpkins - so many pumpkins!

Who knew balls grew in a field - this is a picture of me showing daddy which orange ball I want.

Mommy said this is a scarecrow and they're supposed to scare away crows. I don't know what crows are, but I sure don't trust this guy!
Leaves - so very many leaves!

I love playing in a pile of leaves. Who knew dried leaves tasted so good - looks like I've got a year's supply here! Shhhhh . . . don't tell mom. She makes me spit them out - she says they're yucky. She must have gotten a bad one.

A little under the weather . . . .

On Friday, I had my 15 month check up. I'm still a light weight - I finally broke the 20 lb mark, but I am taller than average. Tall and thin - I wonder where I get that from? The down side of seeing the doctor was the 4 (four, quatro, 4 - yes 4!) shots I had to get! It was very unpleasant to say the least. But I was brave and let them do it!. One more flu shot next month and then no shots for 9 more months. Yeah!!! They say you feel the worst the day after - and they are right! This is a picture of me this morning, snuggled up under a nice warm blanket, ready to doze off.


The weather outside still thinks it's winter. It is cold and dreary! We had a big hailstorm this afternoon - it looks like snow, but it's really a big pile of hail. Daddy took me outside in it and I wasn't very happy about it! Those little balls of ice can give a guy a big bonk on the head! At least we turned the heater on so it's nice and toasty warm inside!
