Thanksgiving

Over Thanksgiving break we traveled to Oklahoma to spend the holidays with Scott's parents. Daniel had a great time, and we all enjoyed seeing the family.

One of the things that makes traveling easier is to have new toys for Daniel to play with. I wasn't a fan of the the Thomas train brand, but Daniel just loves it. So, we purchased his very first Thomas and he was SOOO excited to have it.


Just some pictures of Daniel playing outside at his Grandma's and Grandpa's house.

Playing in a leaf pile with his second cousins Allison and Megan. The girls were really cute and were such a big help with Daniel.

Daniel would copy the two girls. They were throwing leaves in the air, so he had to do the same thing.

Doodlebops Live

Daniel is a HUGE Doodlebop fan! He absolutely loves them. So the other day we fulfilled his lifelong dream of seeing them live.

Halloween

Instead of Daniel helping me carve a pumpkin I had him paint his own. He was pretty hesistant at first but then he got into it.

James, being the artistic Todd, created a Daniel face in his pumpkin. I loved it and will treasure the picture always. I hope that he can do this every year for us.

Daniel was dressed up as a road this year for halloween. I painted a road on a black sweat suit and attached matchbox cars using velcro. It was the perfect costume for Daniel because he LOVES anything that has to do with cars. He didn't like having the cars velcroed to the sweatshirt, but he carried them around all night.

Daniel kept handing Scott the mask to put on and he would laugh as Scott played Peek-a-Boo with it.
