Trevyn's 1st Birthday

Trevyn and his cousin Starlee had their combined 1st Birthday Party at Grandma and Grandpa's house on Sunday. As you can tell, they both LOVED the cake!!!

Although, neither one of them cared anything about opening presents. I'm sure Christmas is going to be a blast!

Me and My Coupons

I got ALL of this stuff today from Wal-Greens for $1.18 (3 boxes of Wheat Thins, 2 boxes of Triscuit, 2 Duck brand packing tape, Children's Triaminic Cold Night-time medicine, Children's Triaminic Cold Day-time medicine, and 2 Toblerone chocolate bars. Pretty good deal huh?

Vampire Teeth

My Mom noticed when she was out here that Trayce had really pointy teeth. We think he is part vampire. Does anyone else thing so? :-)

Trevyn the Monkey

So, Trevyn is into EVERYTHING now!!! He has learned to get on and off of the zebra toy that bounces, he has learned to climb on Trayce's rocking chair and stand up in it, he climbed in his infant carseat the other night and then couldn't get out, & whenever someone opens the fridge he darts straight for it (same with the dishwasher). I can only imagine what's going to happen once he starts walking...

Christmas Tree

I put my Christmas Tree up over the course of 3 days (13, 14 and 15th) because heaven forbid I get any help from Dustin. The only presents under it so far are ALL my brother's from my Mom. I've got LOTS more to wrap but haven't had the time. I LOVE Christmas (especially when I get to go home), and it takes so much time to get the tree all set up, that putting it up the day after Thanksgiving just doesn't give me enough time to enjoy it. So, poo on the normal traditions! I'm starting my own tradition, and I'll set it up every year whenever the mood hits me :-) By the way, it looks WAY better in person. Me and Dustin have NEVER liked gold anything, but I bought everything 75% off last year after Christmas, and we both actually REALLY like how it turned out. I will NEVER wear gold jewelry though :-)

Super Saturday

I went to Super Saturday for the first time ever, and it was actually pretty fun. I kinda had to though because I'm on the Enrichment Committee (blah). This is one of the things I made, which I think turned out really cute. It was my first time to ever stain something and my first time using Mod Podge. I had LOTS of first's that day :-)

Trick-or-Treating

Trayce and I went trick-or-treating with his best friend Chloe and her Mom Jen while the guys stayed at home and passed out candy. At about the 3rd house, someone was dressed up really scary, and Trayce being the big wuss that he is, DID NOT like it too much. I had to hold him, and he just dug his fingers into my arm and shook. So, all the houses after that (which was quite a bit), he made Chloe go knock on the door and he stayed at the bottom of the stairs until the person came to the front door and he was able to see that they weren't some scary monster. Then, he would walk up the stairs and say "trick or treat, thank you, bye-bye." It was really cute. When we got home me and Dustin went through his candy and ate the chocolate :-)

Halloween Party at Grandma's

Every year Dustin's Mom has a Halloween party for the grandkids. They dress up in their costumes, play games, and eat pizza and sweets. Trayce was freaked out by the cousins wearing masks as you could tell in the group picture. Carter had to hold him down for a quick picture.

Carving a Pumpkin

Trayce helped Daddy carve a pumpkin today for his 1st time, but after it was done and the face was in it, he didn't want to get anywhere near it. He just kept saying "Scary" and shaking his hands. So, I took some pictures of Trevyn with the pumpkin instead.

Buzz Lightyear To The Rescue

Meme bought these Buzz Lightyear PJ's for Trayce, and he absolutely LOVES them!!! I don't know if he had ever seen the movie before so he didn't know who Buzz was. Well, we have the movie in VHS so I had him watch it, and he has watched it every day now for the past 5 days. And, he likes to pretend that he's Buzz and jump off the coffee table.

Trevyn - 10 1/2 Months

Trevyn is 10 1/2 months old, and is sooo active!!! He pulls himself up to EVERYTHING, and he's started walking behind his lion toy which he loves. Of course Trayce always wants to take it away from him because he doesn't quite get the whole sharing thing yet.

Trayce and Sammy

Our neighbors have a bunch of these riding toys, and Trayce absolutely LOVES them! He and Sammy will get on one and head down the street with me yelling the whole time for Trayce and Sammy to turn around, but of course they don't listen. So, the neighbor usually has to end up hopping in her vehicle to go get them, by which time they have already made it to the next street. And, I don't know why Trayce is fascinated with licking the steering wheel...

Getting Ready for Daycare

I haven't updated my blog in FOREVER so I decided to add a few things. Trayce has been going to Daycare on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-1 for the past month thanks to Meme and Pop. It gives me a much needed break, and he loves it. He never wants to stay when I drop him off, but then he never wants to leave when I pick him up. Imagine that :-) I take Trevyn every once in a while just to give myself an even better break. Too bad we aren't rich, or I'd be taking him more often too. Trayce got a new backpack with Mickey Mouse on it, and I had his name monogrammed on it. He LOVES it!

Trevyn's 4 Month Dr. Appointment

The retarded noise at the VERY end is my brother and not Trevyn. He was REALLY happy until the Doctor came in the room and starting examining him and when he had to have 2 shots:(

Easter Egg Hunt at Grandma's House

We had a small little Easter Egg hunt at Grandma's on Sunday with Trayce and his cousin Jacob. The REAL Easter Egg hunt and party was 1 week prior, and that's when all the cousins were there. Trayce and Jacob had a really good time though.

Easter Morning

Trayce is checking out what the Easter Bunny brought him and playing on the front porch with some chalk that he got in his Easter basket. The Easter bunny didn't come see Trevyn because he's too young to know the difference.
