Apparently this time of year is called Halloween and mommy uses it as an excuse to go to many events where I have to be dressed up and potentially freaked out by other people dressed up (note: giant scary wizard above). Liliana and I were party animals last Sunday and stayed up way past our bedtimes to go see all the Halloween characters and jack o'lanterns at Greenfield Village. I wasn't entirely sure what to think of everything or why mommy kept trying to make me say "Baaa." Oh well. I think she had a lot of fun...Liliana and I just liked riding in the wagon together and pointing at all the sparkly pumpkins.

Family Outing
Mommy and I spend lots of time going to the zoo, we're lucky because its so close to our house and it has my favorite playground. The other weekend daddy went with us too! It was so much fun - mommy's a little obessed with the polar bear exhibit which is neat I guess. My favorite part of the day was throwing rocks down this cool water grate I found and chasing a peacock....

Fall Fun Update
Hi!! As always, mommy wants me to apologize for being such an infrequent poster these days...seems that the busier I get the harder it is for her or daddy to catch me on film! Of course, the time is flying by, I'll be 14 mos old in just 8 days! I've been walking completely on my own now for about 2 months and mommy is very happy that we don't have to hold hands all the time anymore (although secretly I know she misses it a little). I'm starting to figure out how to say all sorts of things, Hi, Hot, Shut, Side (as in Outside, which is my most FAVORITE place to be), Truck, Dog, Cat...and a few others that only mommy and daddy really understand. I love to eat but have developped some real prefrences, no veggies and no meat please. And nothing that looks strange or new - best to just hide new foods in old favorites...We spend a lot of time at the library for stories (I LOVE books), trying out new parks and going to the zoo. Mommy is a little worried about what we are going to do once it gets really cold out...Here's a few snapshots from our outdoor fun this afternoon...
HOT Tailgate
Being the HUGE state fan I am, I begged Mommy and Daddy to take me to more than one MSU tailgate this year...so we all went two weekends ago on a gorgeous sunny fall day. Turns out it was a bit warmer than we were expecting and mommy and daddy were too busy trying to keep me cool to focus on taking a lot of pictures. Here's one from a friend...at least daddy looks like he was having fun!! Hopefully they'll do a better job at the MI/MSU game!!
