Let's add zippers to the things that Jude has figured out. I come in one day to retrieve Jude from his nap time and he is standing very proud and 1/2 undressed in his crib. He is very interested in unzipping zippers and now we have to saftey pin his clothing shut so he isn't pulling it off his body. What a goof.

We had a fantastic Halloween this year. Derek and I decided that Jude was still to young to really enjoy trick or treating so we made other plans instead. We went over to my mom's house for dinner and pumpkin carving. I was expecting Jude to really get excited about to messy pumpkin glop and I had full intentions to let him get as messy as he wanted to but he took one look inside his pumpkin and said "yucky" and that was it. He had more fun chasing around the cats. But our carvings turned out great and everyone involved had a fabulous time.

Jude isn't particuarly doing anything in this video. I just wanted to see him running around in his tiger costume looking so cute!

I coulda killed the kid! I come out of the room after taking care of Alice and there is pen all over my couch! But I kept my cool and the punishment was limited to a time out. I went on the internet and found that nail polish remover is great for getting out pen from fabrics so I was able to get it off the couch. The child shall live another day. But now that one spot of the couch is all cleaned, it is making the rest of it look all dirty. Ugh...I really want some couch covers, then I can just throw it into the wash.

Yesterday Jude and I went to a carnival that my moms school was having and we had a great time. There was bouncy houses, carousel swings, face painting, a petting zoo, a kiddie train, and all sorts of fun things to do.

There was also a haunted house. After the carnival was closed and all the "monsters" were gone and the lights were turned on we took Jude through it thinking it would be more his speed since almost all the scary stuff was gone. He was still very unsure and scared. He would go look at something and then come running back to get picked up.We will have to skip any haunted houses this halloween.This pictures just cracks me up. I know Jude can't read but he is so blatantly ignoring the sign that it is funny.

Here is more cute pictures of Alice! She had her two week appointment and she has already grown and inch and gained 5 ounces. Time is going by so fast!

Jude was getting cabin fever and it was only 10 o'clock in the morning. So I took Jude out to the park to get out some of the wiggles. We went on the swing, which is Jude's favorite, the slide, which was pretty big but he did it all by himself, and we had a great time. It was really nice to get to spend some time just him and I.

We were at the park playing and having a great time. There was a wierd tunnel system with one going over the other and poor Jude got stuck. Watch and laugh.

Jan and Derek are trying to make the bed but with Duckets and Jude being their assistant bed makers things aren't going to smoothly.
