Halloween

Halloween (actually, the 30th, since that is when Racine did it's trick-or-treating), was a very unexciting holiday for us this year. We put on Rob's costume (Darth Vader, of course), and that lasted an hour or so. We tried to get a picture of him in it, but he was having nothing to do with that. Then our camera died (we need a new battery), and we realized that the picture thing was just not going to happen. Today, for Halloween, Rob decided to take a faceplant into the floor, causing yet another fat lip, and blood to gush everywhere. He cried. I cried. We're all going to be ok.

What???? I took 3 steps on my own today????

At the pumpkin farm.

We have more teeth

As we were eating lunch today, I noticed a tiny little bit of white poking through the gums on the bottom. Looks like those teeth are finally coming out, Rob has been chewing on his fingers (and anything else he can get a hold of) for the past couple of weeks, so we were wondering when they would finally come in. I hate that he is in pain, but he is giving the best hugs and cuddles these days, and he puts his hands on my cheeks, to pull me closer so he can give me a kiss. That is absolutely the best thing in the whole world.

I know how to turn on my music CD's now

apparently he was tired of playing

Brrrrrr

I know I can't really complain too much, since it's been snowing in Wpg, but it went from shorts and a tank top to sweaters and jackets in a couple of days here this week. Yikes. Rob has been falling down and bumping into things as usual, but it doesn't seem to bother him too much. The babysitter runs down the list of injuries of the day when I go pick him up, and I just shrug and say, "oh well". Just another day in the life of Robbie. The problem is that he is a daredevil (just like his Daddy), and has no fear. I'd better up our insurance coverage now before the injuries start requiring ER visits.

Disregard the video below

Gregg tried to put up a slide show that he made, but the file was too big for the blog, and now for some reason it won't erase. Anyhow, it doesn't work, so please don't waste your time trying to figure it out. Anyone who wants to see the slide show will just have to come here and see it. (hee hee). Well, this was the first weekend that Daddy and Robbie spent together alone, without Mom. I went to Door County for a weekend of reminiscing and shopping with the girls from UND, and we had a blast, like we always do when we get together. Both guys were still alive when I got home, and the house was still standing, which was good. Robbie had a bit of a black eye, from a coffee table incident, but overall it was a good weekend of male bonding.
