October 2012

October was full of preparing for the baby and doing lots of Halloween activities. We had a great time pretending to be Superheros and getting lots of candy!

 Graham at his new sibling class at the hospital. He got to make a bib for the baby and told me exactly what he wanted it to say!

 He also got to hold a baby and put it in his blanket and feed it the bottle. I think he's getting really excited for him to get here!

 We went to the Children's Museum for a Halloween party and went trick-or-treating. He got to wear his costume and make a bag for all of his goodies!

 Graham wanted to be a superhero for Halloween but not any specific one so we made him a "G" cape and he was Super Graham!

 The carasoul is his favorite thing to do. Normally we don't ride it because it costs extra but daddy was feeling generous tonight.

 We got to go back for Superhero days at the museum where he got to make a cape and a mask. The kid was in heaven!

 Checking out the ambulance and talking on the CB radio

 Playing pizza parlor, answering the phone and taking pizza orders.

 Our favorite and only Peruvian food restaurant in Omaha is closing so we had to go one last time. We've been going here since Graham was 3 weeks old and we are SO sad to see them going. Graham took pictures for us to document our last visit there.

 Trick or treating at the Library on Halloween morning. Eric was nice enough to carry one of the girl in our ward's baby around while she helped her 2 year old get treats. Such a nice guy!

 Every year we go to Vala's Pumpkin Patch. Graham has never really understood what was going on, but this year, he had a blast!

 He thought it was so funny to feed the goats and have them lick his hand.

 Racing rubber duckies by water... Probably Graham's favorite thing here. We did this several times before we could move on and then went back to it later to do it again.

 Playing in the large pit of corn kernels. He loved it last year but wasn't too sure of it this year. He didn't like the kernels going down his pants.

 Jumping on the large blow up trampolines. He loved this and I think Eric did too!

 We rode the train and ate candy...

 and shot apples in the sling shot!

 Then we rode on the hay-rack ride out to the pumpkins and picked us out a good one. Graham kept tripping on all of the pumpkin vines and then would get up and yell "STOP tripping me VINES!!!!" as loud as he could. It was hilarious!

 He ended up finding the perfect one...

 We made our own Halloween decorations this year. It was also the first time Graham finger painted. He wasn't too sure of it at first but then didn't want to stop!

 

We had a great time in October doing lots of activities leading up to the big event of Halloween! I can't believe this is the last Halloween that it will just be Graham. We've been spending as much time making memories with just him as we can. We are so excited to add to our cute little family though!
