Pre-Halloween Party

It is Halloween today and Colin is napping to have energy for the big night. These pictures are from last weekend's test run of the costume. We had a Halloween party at Colin's Little Gym. There was a huge turnout and Colin was very excited to go as a dragon. The first picture is from on our way into the party and it is a bit out of focus because I had to run to get ahead of his determined walk. I think Colin really enjoyed the excitement and the food. Colin won a pencil with Mommy's help. We had fun practicing our "roars". I hope we don't scare anyone too bad tonight.

This will be a big day for Colin. We even went to Chuck-E-Cheese for a late lunch and to make sure he was beat for his nap. We did not want his excitement to keep him up all afternoon. Only a couple of hours until the excitement begins.

DE Museum of Natural History

This was a few weekends ago. It was very rainy one Sunday and we decided to go to the DE Museum of Natural History. The fact that it was free that morning really appealed to Kristin. Colin enjoyed playing on the part of the floor where you can look down like you are above a coral reef.

"Am I 3 feet tall?" Pretty close. Colin will be ready for those rides when the amusement parks open up again. No more suffering the discrimination of the under 3 ft group. He still has a way to go to catch up with the penguin.

Nice Fall Weekend

It was a very nice Fall weekend here. Great weather for being outside before it starts to get too cold. On Sunday morning we went to the gym and then Colin got to go swimming. He really enjoys playing around in the pool and this time he did not want to wear his life jacket at all. When it was time to go, it was not a unanimous decision. You can't believe how many times we heard "I go pool" during his fit. After regrouping, we went to paint pumpkins at the local park. Colin was very proud of his artwork and Daddy was very pleased that he managed not to get any paint on his Steelers shirt. We did not plan well.
