OCTOBER 1 - FLYING SOLO
Documentation of Stryker's ENTIRELY SOLO eating experience. It made me queasy - looking at the pictures makes me feel just as sick. Needless to say, his daddo was in charge of clean-up. :)
OCTOBER 3 - MR. CLEAN
Boy's added vacuuming to his cleaning repertoire. Oh yeah, baby! :)
OCTOBER 5 - BOY & BUGGY
Once boy's in the buggy, it's almost impossible to get him out. We're talking death-grip on the steering wheel. He knows all of the various engine noises of his dad's vehicles - and if he hears the buggy rev up without being in it, he's very sad indeed!

| One of my favorite pictures of Styker. He looks so "at home," don't you think? |
OCTOBER 10 - EIGHTEEN MONTHS OLD!!!
WHAT THE!? I've often called our firstborn "Little Man," but this is the first time he actually looked like one to me. It's nuts.
But what a joy he's been in our lives! It's been fun to learn "his language" and I think we're doing a great job of understanding each other.
Stryker's Stats:
33 1/16" Tall {70th %tile}
23.13 Pounds {20th %tile}
18.75" Head Circ {50th %tile}

OCTOBER 18 - PLAYDATE
I moved on average every two years for the first 18 years of my life; change was a constant. The fact that we have lived in this house for five years and I haven't totally lost it is amazing to me. That's not to say that I don't have my moments...but they can often be remedied with small changes in furniture placement and PAINT. We finally repainted the living room and I LOVE IT! This house is hard to work with because all the tones are brown {I'm a grey and black type of gal}, but we found a gorgeous marriage between the brown and grey world with a lovely shade of taupe. The pictures don't do it justice, but I'm good for a few more months at least. ;)

OCTOBER 27 - HALLOWEEN PARTY
I have a few certain friends who request my Halloween Party each year, though I must say I'm getting pretty boring about parties these days. At least the food was good. :) Eric had the brilliant idea of dressing Stryker up as Calvin and himself as Hobbes. SO CUTE! I didn't really know what to do, so I opted for Calvin's tired mom. Lame but true. :) Thanks again to everyone who came out and celebrated with us!
OCTOBER 30 - MINI MECHANIC
It makes my heart happy. :)
