Halloween in North Carolina

Ok, the only reason this picture made it is because some of you have been requesting shots of the growing belly...this is the only one I could find. Its not a great view but I think you get the idea!


We weren't too sure if Ian would dig the costume but he was totally checking himself out. He loved being the lion!



I just love the way he was dragging that heavy bucket! Very intense!


We took him Trick-or-Treating on our old street in Clemmons. Here are two of our old neighbors giving Ian some candy.

Then and Now!

We went to the pumpkin patch again this year and after seeing the pictures, I had to let you all see the "then and now". Its amazing how much Ian has grown and changed in a year! I'm a little teary!!



Here are a few more pictures from the past few days. Its been so nice outside and we have been enjoying it! As you can see, Ian doesn't really stop and pose for the camera anymore...they are all action shots now!


I'm a big boy now...out of my way!




The church that sponsored the pumpkin patch had a praise band singing. Ian was entranced by the music. The pumpkins were number two or three on the "things to do" list!

Seattle

Outside of Pike Place Market, one of the famous Seattle spots. (This is where they throw the fish.)
His first plane trip. He was an awesome traveler.
It was quicker and about the same price as a taxi, so Ian had his first Limo ride.
Ian and Caryn dressed for Seattle's weather.
At the zoo with a rather large bear.
Ian loved the Carousel.
A family photo at the Space Needle. Mt. Ranier is in the distance behind us.
Ian loved the Children's Museum. Water play was a big hit.

Ian and Drumline

I fully admit that this video is way too long, but I had a hard time trying to trim it down. Anyway, I played the last scene of the movie Drumline and it got Ian fired up to play his drums.
