Almost 4 mths old!

Hanging out while Maggie picks out her very own pumpkins at the Country Pumpkin.

Going to the gym on Halloween morning - "Mom, ya know I'm gonna kill you for this later."

Halloween evening as you tagged along behind your big sister.

You & Maggie with cousins Michaela and Braeden at the French Fort Cove in Miramichi.

It's been almost 6 weeks since my last entry....so sorry Sammy, October was a busy month. With Mommy's birthday and our wedding anniversary, a trip to Miramichi, the Irwin Family visiting from Florida and of course Halloween, Mommy didn't have much free time. Here's the details on you this past month:

You now weigh almost 18 lbs! Yes, you are a big boy but I just checked the statistics today and you are within normal range; albeit you are at the higher end of the range. I'm used to your sister who too was a fairly big baby but I had forgotten that there are two separate charts for boys and girls....now that I've re-learned this fact, there will be no more comparing you to your sister.

You are still up once during the night. Sometimes you sleep thru the night giving me 6-7 hrs of uninterrupted sleep but most times I just get 5 hrs. That's okay, I've adjusted. The good thing is that you are now on a schedule during the day with a nap in the morning and in the afternoon.

You are now playing in your exersaucer and jolly jumper and it didn't take you long to catch on to either one. You are now also very vocal. You have this high pitched scream of glee that others have interpreted as a sign of distress but once they look at your smiling face they can see it's just your way of experimenting and getting attention. You love the tv. No matter where you are in a room you will arrange yourself in whatever way necessary to see the tv and then you are mezmorized!

You continue to brighten our lives; including Maggie's who still loves to kiss and hug you. Since Halloween she likes to offer you suckers which Mommy obviously stops her from doing but yesterday I came out of the bathroom to find a sucker stuck to your head! LOL :)

Love, Mom

XOXO
