The Allain Family Adventures: Bryton 9 Months/ Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween (a little late!) The kids had a great Halloween season. We did so many fun things and Annabel loved to dress up. Austin thought she might think it was normal to go around in a flower costume because she wore it so much. I was able to help out at her Halloween party at school. It was so fun to see her with her peers and teachers. She is so SHY!!! It is kind of strange to see. I was very proud of her, she listened to everything her teachers said to do and was so happy.

Annabel and Owen having a moment :)

Bryton turned 9 MONTHS on the 21st! His personality is starting show and he is moving and a grooving. We went to his 9 month appointment and he is doing great :) Weight: about 16 1/2 lbs (3%), Height: 26 in (10%), Head: 50%. He is crawling everywhere and getting very interested in looking at the stairs. He loves pulling himself up and standing while holding something. The only time he gets really upset is if I take some food away from him. He LOVES Annabel! We are continuing to work on sharing with both of them. It is a struggle to teach a 2 1/2 year old that all the toys that used to be just hers are now hers and her brothers. I tried to upload a video, but it did not work. Bryton's crawl now looks like a gorilla. It makes me laugh every time!

So happy!

My hair is getting a little out of control.

Play date with Molly.

Don't let Annabel know I am playing with her car!

My little rocker.

Annabel is doing great. She makes me laugh constantly. She is currently working on giving up her nap and it is going to give me gray hair. I must have to go up to her room 10 times each nap. She is either screaming or needs something. We have not quite grasped "quiet time." I am trying to teach her, but it is not working out too well. I end up having to let her play in the basement (which she still comes up the steps every 2 minutes) because she wakes up Bryton upstairs. Hopefully we will get through this craziness soon.
