Happy Halloween and Other Stuff

Happy Halloween and Happy Birthday Grandpa Tony!

Landon was/is a skeleton for Halloween. His skeleton pajamas even glow in the dark. We were lucky enough to already own the Vans shoes that matched his costume perfectly. We had two days of trick-or-treating. One day at Rob's office and the next day at Melissa's office. He crawled all over the office and has a love for that short burber office carpet - good grip on those tiny knees. Not sure what Landon thought about the whole ordeal but he did enjoy pulling small packages of candy out of someone elses bowl and placing it directly in his mouth. We filled his bucket with Cheerios so that he could eat along his trick-or-treating way and avoid the candy.

We took a quick trip to Bozeman where Landon met Great Grandma Anita and Great Uncle John. It was fun to be back in Bozeman and walk Landon around downtown.

Great Grandma Anita gave Landon a bath robe when he was born. We have been getting great use out of it with our hot tubbing excursions. Landon is quite the water baby splashing about and floating on his back. (Looks like he's ready to take the corner ring.)

And a few videos.....

He's a maniac, maniac on the floor......

Landon has become a crazy little man. He, within one week, learned to crawl, sit up on his own, push himself up to sitting, grew another tooth, started saying "mommoommmoommmm", and manged to pull himself up to standing in his crib - he is a maniac. He is into everything, anything not classified as a toy is much more fun than real toys. Speaker wires, dog water, Rob's flip flops, drawer pulls, you name it. He can crawl where he wants and he does. He is eating more and more and recently weighed in at 17 lbs 2 oz - at 8 1/2 months. He loves Cheerios, green beans, and bananas. We flew to Oregon last week for 10/10/10 and Landon stayed with Grandma and Grandpa Erickson and saw Uncle Thomas and Joseph. He had a fantastic time and even came home with some new U of O Ducks outfits, and a few toys. He is still a happy little man, smiling and giggling now with his two bottom teeth poking through like snow capped mountains. He keeps running his tongue over his teeth, I'm sure they feel quite foreign to him. Enjoy the pictures and videos!

Figuring out how to stand on his own. Busy, busy, busy.

More standing.
