Almost 18 months


Well, a lot has happened since we last wrote. We took Zach to the pumpkin patch to pick out his pumpkin. He rode in an old John Deere wagon around the patch! He had a blast trying to pick up all the pumpkins. We still think he is going to be a furniture mover when he grows up!


Halloween was awesome! Zach chose not to wear his hat to complete his outfit, but nonetheless, he rocked the Incredible Hulk costume. We worked on the phrase "trick-or-treat" for a month leading up to Halloween. We went to a few houses and Zach never said the key phrase, but he picked out his own candy and put it in his bucket. We got back to our house , walked up to the front door and Zach yells trick-or-treat! It was hysterical. The timing couldn't have been better! A true classic!


Grandma Gwyn was in town and we did all sorts of things. We took Zach to get his first haircut. He did great. In fact, when it was over he wanted to get back in the chair! They spiked it all up and he was lookin' tough! We also went to the aquarium. It is a beautiful aquarium with lots to see. We saw a huge octopus, otters at feeding time, a tunnel where the sharks swam over your head. A fun Sunday morning.


Zach says a lot of words now. Too many to list. He is obsessed with an old pair of sunglasses of mine that he broke. There aren't any lens, but he wears them around the house all the time! He's our little professor!
