We celebrated our Halloween a little early.  Our ward was did our trunk-or-treat this past Saturday and we decided to go.  We had to have some reason to dress Rusty in his costume since we bought it.  Poor Rusty didn't get any candy.  Mommy didn't want it in the house and he couldn't eat it so... to bad. 

At the party, a couple had dressed up as Mario and Luigi. We had one of their daughters in our primary so she came over to talk to us.  Rusty took one look at her and burst into tears.  He thought the boy in our class who was dressed up with a scary mask was funny.  Silly boy.

That night we did our traditional pumpkin carvings.  Rusty didn't know what to think of all the goop.  

Over all it was a good night. 

6 Months! (Two weeks late)

 Our sill boy!  Well this is two weeks late, but at his 6 month appointment he was:

Weight:  20.5 lbs - 92%

Height: 27.5 in - 86%

Head Circumference: 17 in - 35%

We have a solid boy on our hands.  The makings of a good football player ;)

 

 Go BYU!

  Yummy Ice cream!

He loves his walker

 Drinking his water all by himself

Happy boy!

Labor Day

On Labor Day we decided to head to the Uinta Mtns. for a hike.  It was only 3 miles both ways but we passed 3 lakes. 

Rusty had a blast.  He just loved looking at all the outdoors.  He only got fussy when we stopped for breaks.

Here he is with Grandpa Hamblin!  

He looks like a grandpa himself with his pants up to his arm pits and unbuttoned.  

Silly Boy!

Hm... whats next to his mouth?

Here are some pretty pictures Daniel took.

Zoey decided she wanted to be a water dog.  On one of our breaks we stopped by a little marshy area and decided to throw the ball for the dogs.  Zoey miss judged the distance and fell head or heels into the water.  Afterwords we couldn't keep her out of the water. 

Rusty has been practicing sitting up and decided he wanted to give Zoey a belly rub.  He just throws himself forward when he sees something he wants. 

Don't you like his hat?  

Rusty has some dry skin on his head that only bugs him when he is tired.  He scratches his head while he is asleep so this was my solution.
