Baby Peacock

We celebrated our first Halloween with Josie this weekend.  She had no clue what was going on, but she enjoyed it anyway!  We carved our Jack-O-Lantern on Saturday, and then got her dressed up in her peacock costume and took her trick-or-treating on Sunday.  We just stopped by a few homes of people we knew...and then we hit a few other homes with Josie's friend, Brynn.  Josie favorite part was seeing a dog dressed up as Superman!

Halloween Babies

Josie had a few friends over today to show off Halloween costumes.  They had fun, enjoyed a few treats, and (barely) posed for some pictures!

Pumpkin Patch

Today Ryan and I took Josie to a pumpkin patch.  We met up with Ryan's parents as well as Ryan's sister, her husband and their little girl.  It was an exhausting day, but we had fun getting the girls dressed up.  We did have success picking pumpkins out too!

Hello!

Children's Museum

On Tuesday night, Josie and I met Erin and Addy at the Denver Children's Museum. It was sponsored by Target (free to visitors), so it was crowded. With babies, it might be worth it to pay to go during a less crowded time but Josie still had a lot of fun!

We especially liked the baby area that had plenty of room for crawling and walking without worries...everything in that area was plush!

September

It is getting harder and harder to keep up with this blog! Josie is certainly keeping us busy!

Luckily, she is getting on a routine of 2 good naps a day so at least I get a little time to get things done...usually I am doing some chore around the house, but occasionally I get to watch a show I dvr'd or take a much needed nap.

We had a very fun September. We started the month by going to Glenwood Springs for Labor Day weekend. The Hot Springs were very fun, and the weather was great so we didn't have to worry about it being to chilly for Josie.

A few weeks later, we went to Wilmington, NC for a friend's wedding. My parents met us there and watched Josie while Ryan and I went to the wedding festivities. Josie was a good traveler despite a double ear infection and fluid in her lungs. She is much better now, but we had a rough few days!

Over the course of the month, Josie taught herself to pull up on the furniture and cruise around it a bit. She is getting so big! She's now 10 1/2 months...before we know it we will be celebrating her 1st birthday!
