Halloween 2009

This year we once again spent Halloween with Melissa, Maddy and Karis Zollner. Cade fell asleep on the car trip over, so he is noticably absent from our beginning pictures. This is the group before we headed out to trick-or-treat.

Heading out in the wagon!

Here's our sleeping lion cub!

Home again, checkin' out the stash!

Cade did wake up enough to hit the last 5 or 6 houses. Here he is enjoying a sucker!

We finally got a pic at the end of the night with the whole crew!

Gavin Looses His 1st Tooth

He's been wiggling it for days!

Cade's First Haircut

Over the last couple of weeks, I've been getting a lot of "she's so cute" comments and I realized that Cade's hair *is* looking a bit straggly, so I decided to trim his bangs and then I just kept snipping in hopes of cleaning it up without losing those beautiful curls in the back. I've never claimed to be a good stylist, but I think this turned out pretty good. The wonderful thing about curly hair is that it is very forgiving! Cade was a good guinea pig too. He winced a little when the sissors touched his skin, but other than that he sat very still and actually made it possible to get it done.

Gavin's Favorite Sport

Golf has become Gavin's favorite sport. Chad and I sit back and laugh because this shows us (once again!) that Gavin is his own unique person. Chad always expected Gavin to love baseball and football like he did. I started seeing Gavin pulling away from the sports-thing and thought maybe he'll love music and the arts, like me! Then someone handed him a golf club and now that's all he talks about! He went to a golf day camp this past summer and *loved* it! Here he is at the driving range practicing his swing!
