Happy Halloween and One Month B-day!!

In his puppy suit, w/ his little fingers poking out. He wouldn't put them in the sleeves.

With daddy at the end of the "Trunk or Treat"...he fell asleep so he couldn't have been too cold...right?

With mommy at the beginning...notice he's still awake...w/ little fingers poking out.

Crazy "Aunt" Becky holding him while attacking a caramel apple! She did keep the caramel from dripping on him though...would hate to waste any of the yummy caramel!

Braden loving on Lachlan. He just loved holding him and looking at all his small fingers, toes, tongue, etc...it was so cute!! They are going to be little buddies.

At his 4 week appointment...he was a little worn out after all the prodding by everyone in the office.

His 1 month b-day. I'll take a pic of him w/ this little bear on the 29th of every month to show how much he's grown. Thanks Liz for that idea!

I couldn't pick just one pic of his 1 month b-day. He got the stuffed bear from one of Shayne's basketball boys...who's since identified himself as his "Godfather". He's the only Mormon kid w/ a godfather...an Italian one at that...for real. We love Joe...he's a great kid!



Here are some pics of Lachlan's first Halloween, his one month b-day, and his 4 week appointment. He weighed in at a whopping 7lbs 13oz and is 21 1/2 inches long. I'm pretty sure his length measurements at birth weren't very accurate, b/c if they are he's grown 3 inches in 4 weeks...I don't think so! :) Anyway...he's in the 12% range for weight (he was in the 10% range when he was born, so he's actually right on track), and the 50% range for length.

We ventured out to the ward "Trunk or Treat" this evening, and had a blast! He was dressed up as a little puppy...not that you could tell b/c we had him so bundled up. It was so fun to have a baby to dress up for Halloween!

He's such a wonderful baby...we absolutely love him to death!! I'll post some more pics after Sunday, when we bless him.

p.s. I just have to say congrats to Shancy who finally had her baby on Wednesday, Oct. 29th. Zane Stephen Lusk was 9lbs 2 oz, and 22 inches long. He's a little chub...but a very cute chub. All 5 "Price" babies are now here...and my mom is very much relieved! :)

I am impressed at the promptness of your post. I'll be lucky to get our Halloween pics up before Christmas! We will be sad to miss Lachlan's blessing this Sunday, but know we are with you in spirit. Love you guys.

Pepper, what a cute little fella you have! Kids grow so fast and the next thing you know they are off with their friends trick-or-treating by themselves. Trunk-or-treats are the best things ever thought up!
