End of October Update

Now that Leo is over his double ear infection, he took a little time to pop out his second tooth!  (You can kind of see it on the pic on the right. He has yellow finger paint on his face.)  It broke through on last Tuesday.  We are waiting for one of his top teeth to break through any day now, too.  It's very swollen and has a white spot on the corner.
Leo has learned some cute tricks lately.  He has been nodding and shaking his head.  For the most part he does it with our prompting and will do it on his own if we try to feed him from a spoon or if there is music on.  Which leads me to the next trick, dancing!  Well it's more like bouncing, but it sure is cute!!! :)
Leo has started to say a few words.  He's been saying "uh-oh" and it actually sounds more like that.  The other words he says are: "ditty" for kitty and "da-da" for Papa.
He has been, mostly, sleeping through the night.  He often will get up between 5:30 and 6:00 if he does, though.  It's hard enough to get up at that time, but once the time changes this weekend, it'll be even earlier(kind of!).  At least he's sleeping through the night!  I guess we'll all adapt...
Flora is looking forward to trick-or-treating in our neighborhood.  She is practicing her "meow, meow trick-or-treat" for her kitty costume.  Leo will be a lion, and oblivious to what is going on.
I don't think we'll be making the rounds to family on Saturday.  It's just a lot of running around and it's not fair to Leo to push him past his naps times and have him sleeping in the car.  Sorry, guess you'll just have to wait for pictures or come here and go trick-or-treating with us! ;-)  We would gladly share our candy with you.  Flora begs me all day for candy.
Flora has really been into movies lately.  We have to limit her movie watching to one a day.  She is very persistent, though.  Here she is watching "The Wizard of Oz" with "the scarecrow" we made and "the witch".

It sure is a beautiful, sunny day out there.  I hope you had some time to go out and enjoy it.  We were out for a walk this morning appreciating how the sunshine was highlighting the gorgeous, colorful leaves.  Makes me sad, though, to know that they will all be gone soon and then the "endless" winter will be upon us! :-P

I did put more pictures in the Autumn 2009 album.  I plan on getting some new videos on soon, too.  It just takes a long time to upload them.

Have a great day!!!
