halloween, 6 months, and other adventures

I have a lot to catch up on, but I'm too lazy to do it in separate posts, so here it is in one post. 

I already posted about Logan's Halloween costume, but we did a few other activities for Halloween, and even more than I have pictures of.

We carved a Cookie Monster pumpkin, made spicy pumpkin seeds (yum), and I made meringue ghosts for a Halloween party I went to.  These were all even before Halloween! 

Halloween night we went to Payson--carved another pumpkin, made homemade rootbeer, and hung out with family.

November 3rd marked Logan's six month mark!

A few things our cutie pie has been up to:

-Trying rice cereal and oatmeal for the first time (he highly disappointed me by not even making a face. He likes it...)

-LOVES his daddy (he always has, but he can often be caught staring at Darrin now)

-He has found his thumb more often (he wants to be just like his cousin and mommy)

He has also:

-rolled over consistently

-started scooting on his back

-likes peek-a-boo

-started grabbing at faces

A week or two ago I was cleaning up our garden stuff before the frost came.  I was cutting all the basil off our plant and I went to cut one leaf off and noticed it looked weird. It turned out to be a leaf bug! I put him on the ground and sort of forgot....I squished him. oops!

Here's a bowl full of basil I picked from our plant and in the next picture the leaf bug above a very large basil leaf.
