I'm a monkey!

Simon lived through his first Halloween.  We went to Toys R Us in the afternoon and unfortunately didn't find any toys but did find an awesome monkey bib.  Then we went home to get ready for the big event.  Simon made a very fine monkey.  The weather was even cool enough that he didn't sweat too bad in his fuzzy suit. We didn't have that problem in Michigan usually.

We went to Trunk or Treat at church and wandered around there.  Simon collected a Tootsie Roll and a glow stick.  Trick or treating will be much more fun when he understands a bit more and actually gets to eat the candy.  We saw some cousins and an aunt and uncle.  Then it was off to Grandma and Grandpa's house where they had a very special treat of peaches. 

Today we celebrated the actual Halloween by going to church and not napping all day even though we took a walk in the stroller.  Here's hoping we get some sleep tonight.

I has a toof!

Simulation.  Not the actual tooth.

This morning Simon was chewing on my hand when I felt something sharp.  I poked around with my finger and sure enough, I found a tiny point of a tooth peeking out from his lower gums.  My dear boy is growing up.  Maybe now he can stop being grumpy.  He has started sleeping better lately.  Last night he slept 8 hours straight.  I can deal with that.
