Happy Halloween!!

Tyler's costume was a dog this year. He really didn't want to wear anything, but we got him to keep it on for a little while. He loved going trick-or-treating. He ran from house to house collecting candy. He made it for two blocks and then was ready to come home and help daddy hand-out candy to all the kids.

Happy 2nd Birthday, Tyler!!

Yesterday was Tyler's 2nd Birthday! We can't believe he's already two-years-old! He's turned into such a BIG BOY! One of his favorite things to say is "I do it all by myself". He was so excited for his party. He got tons of new toys and a whole new winter wardrobe. He loved everyone singing Happy Birthday to him....he had been sitting by his cake all afternoon waiting for his party to begin!

Birthday Boy....isn't he cute??!!

It was a Backyardigan Birthday Bash!

We had been practicing blowing out candles for a couple of months...so he was a pro!

Tyler got a fish from his cousin Emily...he loves it! He's named it Pablo (from the Backyardigan's).


Having fun with his new ChuChu Train.

Cool new car!

This is one of his favorite new toys. It's a roller coaster! I think he's rode it a million times already. I'll be fun in the basement this winter until we can take it outside next summer. Wheeeee!!!

Last weekend we went to the Fall Festival at Niepagen's. Tyler got to paint a pumpkin, play games, and decorate a cookie. Here are some pics we took while we were there.

Check out that face!! He was trying to pick up the very heavy pumpkin!

Here are a few pictures from the last couple of weeks :)

Finger painting

Playing dress-up in his cousin Emily's clothes.....too funny!!!

Checking out the worms after the rain...yucky!

Tyler loves to do stickers and we have to display them on the window in the living room.

McDonald's

Tyler's favorite place to go these days is McDonald's. If you ask him what he wants to eat, he'll say "Old McDonald's".

Fun in the Kitchen

Last night, we decided to make some Halloween cupcakes. Tyler loves to help out with stuff like this....and make a mess :) His favorite part was licking the beaters and sticking his fingers in the frosting. Of course, he's only is his diaper again because he still loves to go around with no clothes on!

Tyler and Brady spotted them on the table right away the next morning and insisted on eating one right away. Notice they're sitting on the kitchen floor because they're soooo messy! :)
