yogurt beard

Austin loves yogurt. He asks for it every day. He used to eat it with his hands which didn't work out very well. Then he upgraded to a spoon and he's been doing pretty well at that. Now he started tipping it back like a cup and drinking it.

Bunny Ears

Lately Austin has been putting on these bunny ears. I think he found them in his toy basket. He also loves to put them on Jeff. He was bouncing around on the couch and I looked over and he had put the bunny ears on this way. I thought it was really funny. You can also see that Jeff and I gave him a hair cut. He used to love to get his hair cut but now he hates it. He cried the entire time and I had to hold him. Thank goodness we didn't take him anywhere, that would have been embarrassing. I think Jeff did a pretty good job considering Austin spent the entire time with his head buried in my chest. I posted the side of his head pictures so you can see his hair. I think he looks handsome but I like his hair longer.

Happy Boy

Austin is such a happy boy these days. He is always busy playing and helping me. He talks all the time. He likes to learn new words. Right now we are working on his ABCs.I keep waiting for the terrible twos to start but so far 2 has been easier then when he was about 15 months old. I can reason with him and he understands me and I can understand him.

Happy Halloween

This year for Halloween Jeff made Austin's costume. He has really been getting excited about Thomas the Train so Jeff used large cereal boxes to make Austin a Thomas costume. I think it turned out great and Austin loved wearing it. He still talks about being Thomas for Halloween. While Jeff was out of town Austin and I went to a Trunk or Treat at our church and then on Halloween we went Trick or Treating as a family. Austin caught on to the concept really fast. He would go up to a door and knock or ring the doorbell and then he would say Treat and take the candy and put it in his bag. Then he would say thank you and bye bye. He was adorable.
