So many pictures, only a grandma could love this post

This post is all of my phone pictures from September to now....so sorry.
Pretend first day of preschool - slurpee after - we tried out a different Kindercare before I got my job in Bedford.
 Free day at Dallas Museum of Art
 We enjoyed the fall 70's and 80's and biked some.
 Lucy was getting rid of this ladybug picture and Paul freaked out - insisted we hang it up in his room.
 This turtle was in the middle of the road in Lucy's subdivision, so we rescued it and put it in the nearby pond.
 Paul is becoming a Texan-through and through
 We got a new kitten - we call him Tornado now - we hope that will be "fixed" soon.
 In Sept/Oct the weather was usually in the 80's or low 90's so we spent a lot of time at the park.
 Paul's first fitting in his fireman costume for Halloween.  Thanks Grandma for sending it to us!
 Who needs toys when you have a hanger and magnets?  Don't freak out, he didn't poke his eye out or anything.I believe he was using it as a telescope.
 Another picture of his pretend first day of preschool.  On the real first day of preschool, I took no pictures because it was also my first day of work.  At the beginning of the day, I was running too far behind and he was too tired.  At the end of the day, I was much too tired to think of taking his picture.
 More park - we spent a week at Lucy and Hugh's while they were gone, and played with our friends there.
 More park - with cool sunglasses from Sonic
 Tractor at Pumpkin Village
 First merry-go-round - also Pumpkin Village
 Hay ride - Pumpkin Village
Cool tree carving - Pumpkin Village 
 Super awesome airplane ride - Paul watching me post this said "Look at me spinning around in order"
 Cow train ride - Pumpkin Village
 "I'm in the cow"
 Pony ride - Pumpkin Village
Jared "punkin chunkin" using a slingshot thing to fling pumpkins at a wood cutout of Charlie Brown. Pumpkin Village 
 We saw some friends from Lucy's ward - Paul and Brigette hanging out. 
 My favorite time of the day 
 Going on walks - I tried to re-lose the weight I gained back. I can now wear my wedding ring again, and back down to my smallest pant size since I got pregnant with Paul.
As you may imagine - this ended in the red thing being broken - although Paul suffered no loss of life or limb. 
Can't you tell he is ready for church?  Don't you wear a fireman hat and take your trumpet? 
Ward trunk or treat - our friends Lissania and Edson - they were friends of friends in New Jersey and now they live in our ward here.  
 Potty training- this is about how it's going. 'Nuf said.  Sorry Julie, I know I haven't put in the time yet, but I feel like I'm getting there.
 Yep - we just let it all hang out on Saturday's here.  They are most precious now that we are all 40 hours a week somewhere besides home.
