Austin was a skeleton

we took him trick or treating and he was happy for the first hour or so then not so much

but all in all i think he had a great day.

first time in the kitchen for Austin and first time out to "walk" if u will at night

he was happy all day and a good little boy just like always:)

austin is into everything crawling and standing and even trying to walk a little so we will see what happens next!!!

This is my happy little boy!!!! WE love him sooo much!!!
