Irvine Park 10/23/09

We checked out the Irvine Pumpkin Patch and took a few neat pictures! Michael had fun posing as Frankenstein, a baby corn, and next to a bunch of pumpkins. Next year, we hope to ride the train and go through the mazes when Michael is able to walk. No pumpkin hunting this time because we still have yet to carve the one that we got from the other pumpkin patch.

I'm Fwankentein

Oh look! I'm a baby corn!

Standing straight and tall

These pumpkins here are my friends

Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch 10/17/09

Mommy, Tita Carmel, my gf Lynette (haha) and I went to the Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch in 100 degree weather! Boy was that a crazy idea. The hot hot sun turned my cheeks bright red! It was way too hot to be outdoors so we headed home after only an hour...but I was able to get my picture taken next to a few pumpkins! We took home one pumpkin so that we can carve it for Halloween.

Can you see my tiny mohawk?

Balloon Fun 10/15/09

Grandma Diane brought home a big red balloon for Ethan and me to play with. We spent more time playing with the balloon string than the balloon itself. The balloon entertained us for the entire day!

My head turned into a red balloon!

6 Month Well Baby Visit

Michael is now 6 months old! He can sit up without support and is scooting over to the things he has his mind on. Looks like he may crawl soon! We had to lower the crib to the lowest setting because he can pull himself up to stand. He is a very determined boy. He'll scoot until he can reach the tv remote control, cell phone or the Fisher-Price sing-along book. We have trouble changing his diaper because he's so quick to flip over and sit up. It's practically a two person job now. He fits into 9 month old clothing and is eating rice cereal, bananas and pears. We are hoping to move on to sweet potatoes and oatmeal soon!

The doctor examined his gums, and said his four top teeth are coming in. In fact, two of the four have already poked through his gums, and they aren't the front two middle teeth! haha! So he will probably have his top right tooth, a gap, left middle tooth and another gap. In a few weeks he should have a total of 6 teeth. =)

Stats:
Weight - 18lbs 10oz
Height - 26.75 inches

Halloween Preview 10/02/09

Michael turned 6 months old today! We celebrated at Disneyland and admired the special Halloween decor. Boy was the park packed! We were elbow to elbow on the way to the Haunted Mansion, but the ride was worth the trouble. Michael wasn't scared at all! Look at what Michael is going to be for Halloween this year. Since he loves to bounce while he sits, we decided he would be the perfect tigger!
