October is one of our family's favorite months. Here are the highlights, and lots of pictures.
Monkey: Finished up soccer, started basketball (which he loves), still doing school, and was an incredible Iron Man! We painted his face for school since they aren't allowed to wear masks.
Panda: Cute as a button and getting cuter, loves to look at books, enjoys going on walks, has the best laugh, and is a terrific Thor!
Mouse: Turned one this month and got her very own bear cake for the occasion. It was a long, fun day and she fell asleep mid-cake. Best baby Hulk ever!
Mr. Tigger and I: Had fun running the half marathon at the Utah Marathon. It had a huge hill, but it was fun to run by the capitol. Dressed up and ran in the Halloween Half Marathon (incredibly fun marathon but a killer downhill section…ouch). Dressed up as the Avengers for Halloween and had lots of fun, even won a couple of work costume contests.
October 2013:
Again with the ghoulish merriment!
Monkey: School, camping, basketball (he made the first shot of the season and was so excited!), hiking, pumpkin picking and carving, roller blading, and mustache wearing. Monkey's school had a small race (somewhat under 3 miles) that we all ran in as a family. Monkey and his friend ran with me and were able to run almost all of it with occasional walking breaks. I was proud of him. He wanted to be Darth Vader for Halloween and I thought he looked pretty sweet.
Panda: Park playing, duck feeding, hiking, swinging, bike riding, race running, pumpkin picking and carving, and fun having. Panda was my leaf pile maker. She was constantly raking the leaves into piles and jumping into them. She wanted to be Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter this year and looked awesome!
Mouse: My little mouse turned two this year. She is talking a lot and is very independent. She had a great birthday party, complete with a My Little Pony cake because she adores My Little Ponies. She also got her first haircut, picked out her own pumpkin, and is too cute for words. We decided to make her an Ewok to go with Monkey's Darth Vader costume (there's got to be some kind of family theme).
Parents: We had fun at BYU football games, going to a haunted house, going on dates, and playing with our kids. Our costumes? I went classic vampire and Mr. Tigger donned his Captain America costume again.
