Happy Halloween!

Tonight Mimi, Papi, Jayden and Mama went out to dinner in Edwardsville before the Halloween parade.

Trick or Treat!

This year we let Jayden pick out his Halloween costume. He chose to be Brobee, a character from his favorite T.V. show (Yo-Gabba-Gabba). Tonight we took Jayden to Grandma and Grandpa Bettorf's and to Nena's house trick or treating. He loved to say "Trick or Treat, Smell My Feet"...thanks to Dada. Then he would laugh at himself. He was really cute this year.

Pa Pa Bettorf got him some wax lips. Here is Jayden posing with them.

Jayden and his favorite person in the whole world...Brooke.

Pumpkin Cleaning and Carving

Tonight Dada and Jayden cleaned out our pumpkin and Dada carved it. Jayden enjoyed getting his hands dirty this year.

Celebrating the finished product!

Keagan's Pumpkin Farm Birthday Party

Today Jayden went to a birthday party at the pumpkin farm. He had a lot of fun celebrating his friend Keagan's 2nd birthday.

Enjoying a hayride.

The Birthday girl!

Independence

Since turning 2, Jayden has showed more and more independence. Today we were in the living room and wondered where Jayden was and what he was up to. When we found him he was lying on our bed watching T.V. He is growing up so fast.

Zing Zang Zoom!

Daddy is out of town on a hunting trip, so Mama decided to take Jayden to see Barnum & Bailey's Circus titled "Zing Zang Zoom". The show was wonderful and Jayden and Mama had a fun evening together!

Snacking on some popcorn during the show while holding his new wand.

During intermission we ran into cousin Jacob. Jayden was nice enough to let Jacob hold the wand for awhile.

His favorite part were the elephants...can you tell?

I Wanna Be Like Dad

Tonight Daddy got a new pair of waders. Once Daddy tried them on, Jayden had to wear them too.

Thomas the Train

Today we took Jayden to ride on Thomas the Train. Trains seem to be his new fascination so the timing was perfect.

Fun Times in the Bath

Jayden still loves bathtime and playing with his numerous bath toys.
