Sawyer's First Halloween

Halloween in Marco was very fun!!

A couple of scary vampires (Kyle and Brooke)


A "70's Girl" joins them (Ellie)

Sawyer pre-costume

Sawyer eats his Halloween carrots on the front step so he can watch the trick-or-treaters

Love this face!!

Sawyer with the pumpkins that Ellie and Kyle carved -- the baby pumpkin was for Sawyer

He checks it out


Decides maybe he should eat it?!!

And then we got him cleaned up and into his costume... He wasn't in it very long because it was so hot out!!

The Monkey and Mommy


In his Wagon



The trick-or-treaters... the kids couldn't wait to do the block with Sawyer


And they are off!


Sawyer went to Teresa's cousins house and got himself his one and only treat of the night. It was time to peel that costume off and head to bed!

Jeff's Football Game

We had the pleasure of watching Jeff win his final game of the season and uphold their undefeated status.

The coin toss (Jeff is #59)


Words from the coach prior to the start of the game


Sawyer loved hanging out on a blanket and watching the action



Action shots of Jeff





Sawyer spent a bit of time in the front pack watching the action on the sideline

Roseate Spoonbill

This afternoon Curt and Jeff did some snook fishing -- they did catch fish, but also had the unique opportunity to take some pictures of these Roseate Spoonbill's.

Swimming in Marco

Sawyer did a little swimming this morning in Keith and Teresa's pool in Marco Island.

He is such a big boy - he can stand on the seat and hold on to the ledge all on his own...

Splashing!!!

Stack of Rings in the Pool

Family picture in the waterfall - couldn't get Sawyer to look at the camera, he loved the moving water too much!

New Smile

Sawyer has this new smile that I have been trying to capture on film... bottom line he has started to scrunch his nose up when he smiles - mostly at new people - it's pretty funny!!


A profile picture while he played


A new treat - it's a mesh bag that you can put fruit or veggies in and he can suck/gnaw on them without risk of choking. He loves it!!

Swimming!!

Nanny Kim has been working with Sawyer on his swimming - he is showing good signs by floating on his own, kicking his legs, and spitting water out that he gets in his mouth.

These pictures were before an afternoon swim today.

Play Time with Daddy

Sawyer was playing with daddy today in his walker -- he is really getting good at moving around. Curt took these cute pics that I thought I would share.

Check out all my hair!

Haunted Canal Cruise

Tonight we went on a Haunted Canal Cruise with Ken and Krissy.... it was after bedtime so Sawyer went in his "Boo" Halloween PJ's (thanks Sopher and Siggers)!!

Sawyer as ready as he could be to go...


There was so much to look at Sawyer couldn't focus on a photo shoot.


The graveyard where we waited for the boat


I was trying to protect Sawyer from the butcher... he thought Sawyer looked like he might make some good (pumpkin) soup!




Boat Captain


The houseboats that lined the canal all had different scary themes...





It was very entertaining and I screamed once pretty good... I had no idea that a Kayaker had come out of the mangroves and was right next to the boat (behind me). He touched my back and basically screamed in my ear.... I jumped and screamed!! Ken was sitting next to me and he jumped as well. We all had a good laugh!!
