Fifteen Months

Sal had his 15 month check up yesterday and his Doctor is really pleased with how our little man is growing up! He is 27 pounds 4 ounces and is 32 inches tall now. He is working on his verbal skills every day and our parents as teachers educator gave me some tips on figuring out his language. Cracker seems to be the word of the week....mmmmm yummy! Next up will be Jell-O as Grandma has introduced him to this wonderful treat!

HALLOWEEN!

Sal had a busy Halloween week and unfortunately, he was sick on the actual day - he had a fever of 103 that morning so we had to cancel his fun plans with the Starr twins! He got plenty of use out of his costume as you'll see!

There is a helpful smile in every aisle...here is Sal visiting Uncle Paul at Hy-Vee.

Sal's friends, Thing 1 and Thing 2 (aka Iris and Nora Starr) trick or treating at Sprint.

Daddy and his sweet little Bee trick or treating at Sprint.

Jamie and Jeanine stopped by for lunch since Sal was sick and couldn't go out...we lured them with hugs and caramel apples...here they are with the little bee.

Grandpa with Sal sitting on the table after dinner...he really does get to do whatever he wants sometimes.

Granny put Sal on the table, I don't remember sitting on our table as a little girl!

Watching tv Halloween night with Uncle Paul and Aunt Mary, nothing scary - just little people.

A little bee delivered cupcakes and charmed the ladies at Granny's work after a meeting on Wednesday.

Our sweet little bee, Mommy tried his costume on the week before and took some pictures for our Halloween card.

Hey, check me out! Why am I dressed like a bee? I have to learn to talk!

More October Fun

Sal went to Boo at the Zoo with friends, Katherine and Jonathan. It's hard to get three kids to look at the same time and hold the little one on the rock!

Aunt Ronnie came for a visit and stayed with us the weekend before Halloween - Sal was SO excited to have his Auntie here! And Mommy enjoyed shopping with her!

Grandma Rosa's friend, Clara, passed away at the end of October. She was a dear friend to Sal and our family and we'll miss her very much. Clara is Daddy's friend, Javier's, Mom.
