ARRR We be Pirates!

I am finally posting our Halloween pictures.  Memphis and I dressed up as pirates.  It was a lot of fun.  I don't think Memphis really knew what was going on but it sure looked like he had fun.


World's cutest pirate:)




The hat didn't ever last very long.  I think it was just a little too tight as you can see the lines on his forehead.




Memphis and Mommy at our ward's trunk-or-treat.  Memphis loved chewing on his sword.




At my elementary school Halloween Parade with all the specialty teachers.  We all decided to dress up like pirates this year.  From left to right: Art teacher, Music teacher, Computer teacher, PE teacher, and Memphis.




I am helping direct our elementary school musical and Memphis goes with me to practices.  We got a walker as a gift for Memphis and it just doesn't roll very well in our carpeted basement apartment so I took it to school for Memphis to walk around the big gym.  HE LOVES IT.  He walks (more like runs) around for the whole hour of practice.

HOPE YOU ALL HAD A FUN HALLOWEEN!

LATEST WELL-BABY CHECK-UP:  So at 9 months our pediatrician gave us the go ahead to wean him off baby things.  We can start giving him dairy and whole milk so we don't have to pay for expensive formula.  That means I can start putting away the bottles and getting out the sippy cups.  He has two bottom teeth and one top one is working its way out so he is eating off our plates now.  We can move him to his new front facing car seat.  He gets around really well crawling, walking holding on to things, and walking by just holding on to one of our hands.  The pediatrician thinks that he will be walking by Thanksgiving.  I kind of don't want that to be true because I am not mentally ready for a more mobile baby but we will see:)  At his 8 month checkup he weighed 22 pounds and at this checkup he weighed 20 pounds because he is more active.  I also officially put away his 9 month size clothes and he is wearing 12 month size clothes.  My baby is growing up!
