Trick-or-Treat

Tyson picked out his Tommy the Train (as he calls it) costume this year. This year, he lasted a full hour trick-or-treating with neighborhood pals and Grandma & Grandpa Coburn. He returned home giddy and protective over his new candy treasures.

Ready to hit the neighborhood!

Loved sharing a wagon with Samantha

Notice who's not shy with the candy bowl

Success!

Fall, where are you?

I tend to get grumpy this time of year because I am beyond ready for cooler temperatures! Fall is my favorite time of year, so we try to make the best of it even though there is no Fall in the Phoenix area. Below are some recent photos of us searching for Fall. :-)

Petting Zoo Day at Tyson's school

Airplane ride at Schnepf Farms

Cousins: both are growing up so fast!

Gotcha with a smile! Tyson wasn't interested in taking any photos all day, but I got this one.

The Two-Year-Old-Personality

Adam and I have entered a new phase in parenting... age TWO and all that comes with it! There has been many joys, but lately our sweet little boy has shown us his more independent and stubborn side. I am enjoying capturing the moments along the way...

Sunday afternoon lunch with Grandma and Grandpa Tober = not in a "say cheese" mood

Sunday evening with good friend Travis = great mood! Great having you here Travis, come back and visit soon with the fam!

San Diego

Last weekend, we travelled to beautiful San Diego to take Tyson to the California beaches for the first time. To our surprise, the October weather was beautiful and mild! We enjoyed our stay with Aunt Claudia- she took very good care of us. Tyson loved splashing in the ocean water and didn't mind the cool water temperature. Highlights included: Seaport Village, Tar the dog, Del Mar and La Jolla beaches, making seal noises at Seal Beach, playing with Aunt Claudia's dog Winston, and walking around Coronado. Tyson is lucky to have very patient grandparents... they were soooo patient with him during the car rides to/from San Diego. :-)

Football season is here!

Bowling with buddies Tyson loved the birthday cake at Miles' party... licking icing off his lips

Labor Day

It was such a treat to get out of the HOT weather in the Phoenix area and travel North to much cooler temperatures. We enjoyed spending time with Lindsay, watching McKenna crawl and climb all over, and celebrate Adam's birthday!

The kiddos love spending time with their Aunt Lindsay!

Tyson is now anti-strollers, but his legs have a hard time keeping up with the pace.

Happy Birthday Adam!

Healthy Season

It's the little things that make us super happy = no sick appointments! That is right, Tyson hasn't had a sick appointment in over 3 straight months. We know it's summer and far from cold/flu season, but this time last year we were in and out of the doctor's office trying to keep Tyson healthy. Our little guy was sick-appointment-free the first 11 months of life, but the 13 months following, we were at the doctor too frequently dealing with all sorts of ear, nose, and throat fun.
