Happy Halloween!

Last weekend Madalyn was 7 months old. Here is what she is up to:

-a very busy little bee. She doesn't sit still, do not expect to put her in one spot and she will stay there.

-if there is something that she wants and it doesn't matter where in the room it is, she can get to it.

-she has started pulling up; she did it 3 times last week at Mrs. Katie's but Kevin and I haven't seen it yet.

-she has become very vocal and to Kevin's delight is saying "dada" over and over.

-she is a wiggle worm when it comes to changing her now; in fact she has been moved to the floor this weekend after she almost took a nose dive off the changing table with me. Thankfully I caught her before the rest of her body went over. Scared me!

*OH, and Thursday evening I got the report back from Madalyn's allergy testing and everything she was tested for came back negative. So the doctor said that she was going back with what she thought before it was viral hives. However, Mrs. Katie gave Madalyn squash on Friday since we had gotten the ok, and it messed her little system up. She was spitting up a good bit and had an upset tummy. So, even though the test was negative I think we still stay away from squash and pears for now. But Kevin and I were so thankfully the test came back negative, but we will still be keeping a close eye on her when we start her on a new food.

Madalyn celebrated her first Halloween. She really didn't have much of a costume this year. I looked and looked for something but I never found anything that I really liked for her to wear. So she went as a "Diva Farmer". Mrs. Katie had a "Halloween/Fall" party this evening. There were lots of people there and the kids wore their costumes. We had hot dogs, chips, dessert, and the kids rode on a hay ride and got to trick or treat. It was too cold outside for Madalyn so we skipped the hay ride this year, but it was a nice time. However, when we left the bigger kids were continuing to dive into their candy and you could tell the sugar was kicking in.

Madalyn and her pumpkin she got at Grandad's Apples last weekend.

I carved the pumpkin and I thought it turned out good. Just in case you can't tell, it's a cat.

The younger kids made a Halloween gingerbread house.

Hunter and Kevin. Isn't he the cutest little monkey! He had a booboo over his eye; so we said he was one of the monkey's that were jumping on the bed and fell off and bumped his head. (I'm not really sure how he got his booboo.)
