Happy "Ween"!!

Happy 'Ween' everyone! Well really I mean Halloween but I like to say ween instead. Guess what I was this year?! A t-rex!! Totally cool, huh? I thought so! I would rawr and everything! Well, today, since it was sunny out (it hasn't been for a long time!) Mommy and Daddy took me to the park to play. Those pictures will come on here another day. It's late to do them tonight. But, while at the park, they decided to get me suited up for some sunny pictures as a dinosaur. I had fun with it. Running around and everything like that. Later, we ate some dinner, suited me up again, and we were off to trick or treat! Boy oh boy, do I love trick or treating! So much fun! I mean, of course getting lots of candy and treats is fun, duh! I'd trick or treat in style. By that, I mean, I rode my quad around house to house. Pictures of that to come later too. Mommy just wanted to do a small update for you! So here are a few pictures (including one of each of my last 2 halloweens) to hold you over! Keep checking for the other pictures! Oh, and did I mention I had a really fun halloween? I thought I did, just wanted to make sure though!!

I was Squirt from finding nemo at 10 weeks old.

A lion of course. I rawr'd then too.

Pumpkins and Go Karts

Earlier this week, Mommy, me, Austin, and his Mommy all went to the pumpkin patch. It was a nice warm sunny day so we wanted to be outside. I'd been there before, but Austin and his mommy hadn't. It was a lot of fun! We fed the goats, jumped in some hay, went through the corn maze, played in some corn, and even rolled on down to the pumpkin patch to pick our pumpkins. So much stuff! After we found our way out of the corn maze, I decided to tell Mommy I wasn't done and I wanted "more corn" and tried to go back to the maze. Didn't work out too well for me. I just really like running around in the big stalks of corn. What kid wouldn't? But, it was time to head down to pick our pumpkins. Of course, after a pit stop in the corn bin. That was fun too. I of course had to test out the corn you know. Didn't taste too great. Finally, we climbed in the wagon, and Mommy pulled us down to the pumpkins. I got to pick one out too! We ended up leaving with 2 huge (at least to me) pumpkins. It was a good day!
Yesterday, Me and Mommy headed up to Osage Beach. She had to go to the phone store because her phone is weird. It doesn't like to work all the time. I went because I wanted to go on the go-karts! She made the mistake of mentioning them to Daddy, and I was sold. On the way up there, we were driving a curvy road, and I thought it'd be fun to hold my hands up in the air while saying 'weeeeeee'. Mommy thought it was pretty cute. I would yell go, go go!! And things like up, up, up when going up hills. It was a fun car ride. We got to the phone store and they worked on Mommy's phone. After, I decided I was hungry, so Mommy took me to McDonalds. I like my chicken nuggets with sweet&sour sauce. And of course french fries! Everyone around us was eating ice cream, so of course, I had to have one of those too. Mommy obliged and got me one of the little kids cone. Ohh it was yummy. You know how I love ice cream. After that was all said and done, we headed to the go-karts. I'd never been in one, and I was finally old enough! So we bought our tickets, headed down the stairs to the track, and got on in. I got buckled in and we hit the track! It was fun! I'd hold my hand up in the air (one because the other was holding onto Mommy. I needed something to hold me up) and just let the wind blow in my face. A boy's dream. I can't wait til I'm old enough (and tall enough) to drive myself!
Jumping in some hay.

hmm..which way?

Visit in St. Louis

This weekend we went up to St. Louis to meet up with Grandpa and Grandma (mommy's dad and stepmom). They were flying out of St. Louis on Monday just so they could make a pit stop there while on their way home from Indiana and see me! I had a lot of fun with them. We would make lots of paper airplanes and through them around the hotel room and fun stuff like that. You know how i just love airplanes! They even brought me a present! I got a new tractor and a new outfit! We went out to dinner and since I stayed awake the entire 2 1/2 hr drive to St. Louis, I feel asleep on the table. Kinda funny. Later we went back to the hotel and sat around the hotel lounge. I'd play with Grandpa and Grandma and even took walks with them around the hotel showing them all the stuff there! Grandpa took me to look at the pool, and the waterfall thingy that had in the atrium thing of the hotel. We even got to play in the elevator! I love those too. Grandpa took me in those a lot. He just couldn't say no to me =D. Later, they were really sleepy so they headed to bed and mommy and daddy took me swimming! Have I mentioned that I absolutely LOVE the water? I had so much fun swimming. Mommy doesn't think it'll be long before I could actually swim. I paddle my arms and kick my legs at the same time like your supposed to and everything! So who knows, maybe I'll be an awesome swimmer? So that was all for the first day. The next day we went down and meet Grandpa and Grandma in the breakfast area and ate. I was excited to see them again. I knocked on their door that morning, but they didn't answer. So we found them. I ate a pancake and some yogurt with some O.J. Grandpa took me for a few walks again too and up in the elevator for like a whole 20 minutes! I'd act like a crazy kid in there (the elevators were glass so i could see everything) and point out everything to Grandpa. I was just so excited and full of energy, even after 20 minutes of the same thing. After we all got dressed and ready to leave the hotel, we headed to the arch in Downtown St. Louis. Grandpa told me he'd take me in a big elevator! Needless to say, I was excited! So we made our way through the line and finally got the in tram elevator to go to the top of the arch! It wasn't exactly what I was expecting. It was very small in there, and we all had to sit on these little stool chair things. All 5 of us were in there and I was the only one short enough to actually be able to stand in there. That's how small. After about 4 minutes, we got out and walked up some steps, and bam, we were at the top. There were little windows to look out of and you could see everything! I got to see helicopters, boats, the river, cars and trucks, and even trains. Everything. It was cool! After we were done, we waited for the tram elevator to go back down. The time was coming for Grandpa and Grandma to head to the airport to catch their plane. We all walked back towards the parking area and played around on the way. There was a train going by too so I got a close up view of it! When we finally made it through the park and back to the parking garage, it was time to say good bye to them. I really didn't want to, and I whimpered and whined a bit, but overall, I handled it well. Mommy and Daddy decided to take me down to the river so I could look at the boats and water and the helicopter over there. I loved it! I even got to see a helicopter take off! Eventually, it was time for us to go and head home. I slept the whole way home this time. I had fun with my Grandpa and Grandma and can't wait to see them again! Mommy put up a bunch of pictures, but most of the ones with G&G were taken on their camera, or Daddy's film camera, so you'll have to wait for those. But there's a few mommy had.

Finally

I finally got my first haircut. After 2 years and 1.5 months. I did really well. I sat in the chair all by myself. Mommy held my hands, but I didn't need her to. She did it for herself, ya know. They took off a lot of hair too. You'll see. Beforehand, Mommy and Daddy took me around our town and took lots of pictures of me. It was a little late 2 year picture shoot. Better late than never, right? They got lots of good ones too. You know, I don't make it easy for them. I like having fun too much to sit still for a picture. But hey, what do you expect from a 2 year old? Lately, we haven't been up to a whole lot. I've had a cough and a runny nose for probably 10 days or so. No other problems though so I've just been trudging through it. I am teething my 2 year molars, so that could possible be the reason for the runny nose. Mommy hopes that my cough goes away soon. She feels bad not being able to do anything about it. We've tried honey and lemon and tea and steam..Nothing really worked for me. I sound pretty pathetic too. But it'll get better. Grandpa and Grandma Geiss (Mommy's daddy and stepmommy) are going to be in St. Louis this weekend so we're going to go and see them. It'll be fun. Hopefully me and Mommy get to get out more this week. It's been hard without the other car here. We've been stuck at home a lot. Which means, less updates because I'm not doing much. Kind of boring. And I wanna play before it gets too cold. You know, fall is here now. Well.. Mommy put up a bunch of pictures so that should hold you over til she is done with the others. Enjoy!

The new do. It wouldn't rotate for Mommy though.
Kisses for my daddy.
