Some more fall photos...This time with the appropriate fall gear and having a great time in the leaves. By the time the "photo shoot" was over, she was down to just her diaper, bear walking around in the leaves, and I had decided that only the little leaves needed to be dug out of her mouth, the rest were fair game!


Cassidy's first Halloween was not exactly as we had planned, but we had a good time just the same, and never has there been a cuter little bear. We did learn an important lesson....Babies do not like to get their faces painted! We showed off her costume at Sam and Cari's house and played for quite a while. Cassidy was showing how well she was crawling and climbing. Then, just as Mom was saying how much more she is looking around now when she is crawling Cassidy ran head on into a wall. Timing is everything...


But it's true, in just a few weeks Cassidy has become much more mobile and aware of where she is going and why. When she first started crawling she would just go with her head down and then stop and look up to see where she had gotten too. Now she has a purpose in mind when she takes off, usually to go see the dogs, to follow us around the house,or to get to a toy. She is also much more into climbing and tumbling. She has started to climb up on our stomaches while we are laying on the floor and then smiling while she bales off the other side, the higher the better. On landing she rolls to her side laughing and then climbs back up. I'm not sure where she gets this adventurous side from.....
Grandma Margie has been here since the 30th and they have been spending lots of time together having fun. She is headed back home tomorrow, but we'll get to see her again soon for Thanksgiving.
A now classic move from Cassidy.....
