I want to hold Daddy's Hand

One of the cute things that Owen is into now is that just about every time we are in the car he holds his hand out and gets my attention letting me know that he wants to hold my hand while we are driving.  If Mommy is in the car with us...her hand won't due...it has to be Daddy's hand.  I love holding his hand but my shoulder doesn't like the angle that it has to be in to hold his hand.  (It's still worth it though.)

Making me aware of what he wants...

 

 

Now he's happy and can travel without incident

 

Pumpkin Display

There was a pumpkin display at one of the shops in Delafield, WI.  We stopped by there on our way to dinner. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trick or Treating 2014

Hitching a ride with a friend

 

 

Not a bad deal...all I have to do is go up to a door, look cute, and they give me candy

 

 

This homeowner had a skull mask on while he was handing out candy.

I just love that Owen just smiles at him in amazement.

Dino

As you might already be aware, Owen loves to "be a dinosaur" complete with stomping around the house and roaring in his "dino voice". 

So what would be a more pefect Halloween costume than a dinosaur?

Our church had a Halloween festival of sorts for everyone to come to complete with carnival type games with prizes (candy) for each game completed.  Owen loved it but pictures were very difficult to get because he was never still.  Each picture I took was more blurry than the one before.  Here are the ones that are semi-legible.

Sidewalk Chalk

Look at how serious he takes his art.  I couldn't get a picture of him with his head up.  he was very focused on his work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Block Tower

Owen gets excited to see how high he can make his tower, and he gets excited to see it fall.  If you can't watch this all day....there's something wrong with you. 

 



 

"Mommy" in a "Lion Voice"

This is Owen saying "Mommy" in his cute "Lion Voice".

Animals

Owen is pretty advanced.  (I know....isn't every kid?)  Here he is picking out every animal and putting it on his magnetic board.  He's so smart.

 



 

Monkey Joe's

Daddy took Owen to Monkey Joe's on a "Daddy - Dude Day" and we were one of only maybe 6 people in the building.  So, Owen could take advantage of the fact that not many "big kids" were there and was able to get on all of the blow up toys.
