I was super excited for October this year! It marked the beginning of the holiday season, and would bring pumpkin everything, my birthday, and Parker's first Halloween! Unfortunately, I was out of commission for some time with mastitis (boo!) and then on top of that yucky colds for me and Parker. Despite our days in the house trying to recover, we did fit in lots of festive fun! Here's a look back at little man's first October!
We took a family trip to MacDonald's Ranch to visit their pumpkin patch...
Went to the Fall Festival at our neighborhood school (where I used to teach)...
Attended a special Halloween themed music class...
Hosted our Boy's Mommy Club for a Halloween themed brunch...
Fit in some baby-proofing with Parker as supervisor...
Spent plenty of time snuggling...
Donned some matching Halloween jams...
Celebrated my 31st birthday...
Headed back to MacDonald's Ranch with mom friends...
Read lots of Halloween books...
Made Parker's room extra festive...
And finally, it was the big day!
Daddy flew back from a business trip to D.C. just in time to celebrate!
Parker had a costume change before we headed out to trick-or-treat.
His first trick-or-treating experience! (We actually only visited two houses - both of them neighbors we know so we also chatted for a bit.)
Halloween night (and October) ended with Goodnight Moon for Parker.
Here's hoping for a healthy November for all of us!
