We had a busy and fun-filled weekend.  We went to a local Brewery Open House, attended a Halloween Party at the Frank Erwin Center for UT, and took a bubble bath (with surprising results).  E is spending his Halloween as Tigger this year.  He won't put on the hood of his costume, but he is still the cutest Tigger I've ever seen.  And I think others agree, especially when he flashes his killer smile.  He did a lot that this weekend, lots of smiling.  Here are some highlights and lessons learned...

• When attending any outdoor events, we will now always bring a tennis ball.  At the brewery on Saturday, E made many friends by playing catch or just throwing the ball at random people and then smiling. 
• Diamonds may be a girls best friend, but we are fast learning that dirt is a boy's best friend.  E loves to play in dirt at every opportunity.  If you include a stick to spread the dirt around, he can entertain himself for hours.
• Just because it's in a see-through cup, looks like apple juice, and is being consumed by adults... it is not juice, will never be juice, and E cannot have any.  Sorry bud.
• Playing Halloween games where you put a face on a felt pumpkin or pin the tail on werewolf is only fun if you can knock it to the ground when you're done.
• E will not enter a bounce house unless one of us goes with him.
• E is terrified, and I mean TERRIFIED of bubbles in his bath.  We gave him his first bath with Mr. Bubbles expecting a whole new level of bathtime fun.  He was excited when he first saw them, but when he got in the tub, he didn't want the bubbles to touch him and refused to sit down.  To ease him into it, we put the bubbles on his belly and his head.  He tried to push them off, started to cry and climbed out the tub while clutching on to us for dear life.  It was the shortest bath ever!

Hope you enjoy the new pics we uploaded (including the Tigger costume). Hope everyone has a happy and safe Halloween!!!
