Davey has passed the 18-month mark! And of course we were going to go to get professional pictures taken this weekend, until he stumbled over the front porch step and scruffed up the right side of his face! I almost wish I would have aken a picture of it, but I was too upset last night. And 24-hours later it looks sooo much better! This was the first major injury we have had...I see ourselves as pretty lucky, too. I guess pictures will have to wait.
Davey amazes us each day. He says please and thank you. He knows how to try each key on a keyring in a car's ignition. He loves everything in ketchup. And while the fits come and go he can now calm himself down fairly well (at least well enough for a red-head!). He finally calls me Mama instead of some strange title he used to say. He can spot a swing, water fountain, or dog from a half mile away! My dad is his favorite person (after me of course) and I think the feeling is mutual for my dad. He loves taking his toy chainsaw out to help Josh cut down the trees from the storm. And the only way to get him through Wal-Mart is to play Hide and Go Seek in the aisles. Life is good.
We went with some teacher friends to the Louisville Zoo to go trick-or-treating. We had a blast! Josh made a shirt for Davey that looks just like Jack from Jack's Big Music Show. We splurged and even bought red hightop Chuck Taylor's (like Jack). Davey was excited. He even slept in the outfit that night. I am glad he will get to wear it again at the end of the month.
Nothing much else to report. Just wanted to get some pictures up. This weekend Josh will be tearing out the upstairs bathroom and redoing it completely. I can't wait, but I am not excited about having to shower in the downstairs bathroom. It kind of creeps me out. It is harvest gold and has a window that looks out into our side yard. Hopefully it will be done quickly.
