Even Pastor Brelje helped with the trick or treating!

Mrs. Sward (my teacher), Rudy, Alex, Jillian, Mrs. Robin (teachers helper)

I had my halloween party at preschool today. We got to make lots of kewl crafts, eat jello with eyeballs, and then go trick or treating. We learned about halloween safety and to always listen to our parents. Happy Halloween everyone!!

Family PIctures

Well, it's been a while but we finally had some family pictures taken. Here is a sneak peek and I will post some more very soon. You can see a few more at www.katiedewinter.blogspot.com under Tomlinson Family.

Happy Halloween

Happy 4th Birthday Myles!!!

Man did I have a GREAT birthday!!! Not only did I get to have like three "parties", but cake, cake, cake, oh.... and presents!!!! All I have been talking about and wanted for my birthday SO bad is a new train engine named Rocky....guess what... I got him!!! I also got many more new engines like Rosie (another engine I've wanted for a while), Smudger, Mighty Mac, and the Happy Birthday Thomas engine/box car set. I took some special cupcakes to preschool and then had a small party with a few friends at my house, then we went to my favorite place to play (eh hem...I mean eat!), McDonalds!!! I had a fantastic day - thanks so much to everyone for coming to celebrate my birthday with me.

.....aaahhh... I LOVE birthdays! :)

Zoo Boo

(click on the image to open another window)

We all went to the Binder Park Zoo annual Zoo Boo, which is where they decorate the zoo with thousands of pumpkins and other (not so) scary Halloween stuff and then you can trick or treat at different themed stations. We met up with my friends Owen (Batman), Billy (Power Ranger), and Gavin (skeleton). There were a few kewl games that I played and won some neat prizes, but the best part about the Zoo Boo....the train ride!!!! Guess what my costume is this year..... (and I'll tell ya, that you will only need ONE guess!).... that's right, Thomas the Tank Engine. And guess what Elliots' costume is this year..... yehp, right again, yet another hand-me-down costume of mine! :) Stay tuned for plenty more Halloween pictures!

Just Playing Around

Now that Elliot is getting bigger he can play with me more (you know, doing big kid stuff). He loves to go for a ride in my Jeep with me and loves to watch some of my tv programs too.

...."hey, yo baby.... how you doin'?.....

....ah.... TV.....

Kindermusik for Elliot

....finally that woman I call Mumma has gotten it together and put me in a music class of my own. I'll tell ya, it gets real old just taggin' along with your big brother to his music classes all the time! I LOVED my first class and starting in January I will get to go every week when Myles is in preschool. Maybe one day Mumma can get my dance moves on video for ya...you would be impressed. :)

What I do...

at preschool... Just thought I would give you an idea of the sorta things I do at preschool. Everyday we say the Pledge of Alligence, learn a bible story, and learn (how to write) our letters. Below is something I did last week - I wrote my name! I know, it's kinda hard to read, but you can see the M Y L E S at the top of the page. Also note the excellent color job on the cat (who is orange for Uncle Ben and Aunt Wendys mean cat Mittens). Mumma says.... now if I could only learn how to make dinner.... :)

We Have Lift Off....

Well not exactly lift off, but I did decide to give this walking thing a try. Here is a short video of me taking some of my first steps. I thought maybe I would keep my "Frankenstein" walk just for Halloween, ya know, just to be festive and all. I find that sometimes it's way easier (and faster) to just crawl, so I won't be giving that up anytime soon. I will say this walking thing is definitely way easier on the old knees!
