on to November

This year in Louisville on Halloween there were storms and even a tornado watch so they opted to do trick or treating on Nov 1st. It was waaaay nicer weather than last year where we froze! This year Parker was Super Why. my mom made the costume. We lost his cape at Brown Park during that festival. I was soooo bummed because it was his first time to wear it. but since my mom is a BOSS she made another one and got it in the mail so we'd have it for Halloween. which he didnt even end up wanting to wear. that or his mask.
 I call this is first REAL time trick or treating. in the sense that he went up to the door and said trick or treat by himself. well, Paisley was there too but I stood on the sidewalk and watched. it was super cute! The first couple houses he just wanted to eat the candy he was getting.
 wanting to take a nap in his tent.
 the train scared him and he thought hed be safer on my back.
 chillin out max and relaxin all cool
 just bonding with the turkey at the gym. P thought that thing was the turkey's nose.
 he lays like this regularly to watch tv
 he's ready to get some work done as a construction worker
 I had my first OB appt and we got an ultrasound! baby's forehead is less protruding than big brothers was at this size but still has a LARGE head just like P. look at that jaw line!
 just having fun with mom
 what a little cutie
 P and Paisley playin with the Drews ear protection
 ohhh just eating an ice cream cone (plain, no ice cream) for breakfast
 So I bought undies with anticipation of starting potty training. well P loved the undies so much he slept with them and then wanted to wear this pair the next day over his diaper. 
 my little stud muffin lookin so cool
P had his 2.5 yr check up: 32.4 lbs (75%) 36 1/2 in tall (60ish%) happy, healthy, and super cute
 whats that I see, big boy undies? we got crazy and started potty training the day after his dr appt. I thought Id take advantage of him looking his undies.
 I was referred to the 3 day potty training method and I was a bit skeptical and it was tough work but so so worth it!! I even got crazy and did it the week before thanksgiving break. I didnt really want to wait because it was just one holiday after the other and we'd be gone for both traveling. then we'll be traveling for spring break then its basically summer and he'd be 3. I didnt want to wait that long. so we jumped it. he owned it!! again day 1 was ROUGH! but I also babysat that day, stupidly, so it was hard to keep up my positive reinforcement. but once he caught on day 2, he really caught on. 
we went to my parents for thanksgiving break. silly P loves to play in my moms craft room. look at that goody he found.
 just watchin his toons
 he loves this cabinet at my parents. he fits perfectly and always asks you to close the door for him.
P was a little sickly while we were there with a fever but chocolate ice cream can make anyone feel better!
