Busy Weekend

We had quite a busy weekend!  On Friday night our old church Shady Grove PCA had their annual costume and game party to take place of Halloween.  Trey dressed up as Buzz Lightyear (of course!) and Ethan wore a little white and orange striped sleeper with a pumpkin hat.  They were really cute!  Trey wasn't feeling great, but had fun playing the games and winning candy, most of which he ate immediately (he LOVES Twizzlers).  Ethan was awake nearly the whole time... we're noticing a trend of this in him when we are around people.  He seems to really enjoy faces and voices too much to sleep!

The next day we had a our first snow storm of the year... yes in October!  Crazy!!  I think we had 1-2 inches... not much but enough to keep us inside and cozy most of Saturday.  We carved our pumpkin, which Trey loves.  He calls it his "punkin face".  Then Pj and Trey went outside to see the snow and Trey enjoyed making and throwing his first snowballs.  But he surprisingly didn't like the hot chocolate afterwards... oh well!

That evening Pj and I took my parents with us to hear some beautiful music at the Strathmore.  We had such a good time getting out without the little ones but also the music was just amazing!  We has seats close to the stage and so when the pianist was playing a piece by Liszt, we could see how fast his fingers move across the keys... pretty unbelievable.

Unfortunately Trey's cold got alot worse late that night and we ended up having to take him to the ER because he was throwing up, wheezing and having some labored breathing (which has happened before when he has had a cold).   He's doing alot better today and they sent us home with another refill for his inhaler.  Apparently he might have a light case of asthma that is brought on when he gets sick.  We're happy it was not pneumonia.  They checked him out and did an x-ray just to be sure!!

Ethan has been pretty chill lately!  He's starting to coo alot more and he laughs and smiles alot every day.  He seems to love people and will stay awake for hours just happy and content if someone is holding him.  But he also enjoys laying on his playmat alot longer now and will smile at his toys and bat his hand at them.  However, he still hates tummy time so I have to make sure he's already in a REALLY good mood before we try that.

I have to run... Trey is asking me to make a block house with him.  Here are some cute pictures:-)
