Zek (finally) got his hair cut. You can see a video on YouTube here:

Pictures to follow, for those of you who think watching a haircut is boring (and we completely agree).

Halloween

This was Zek's first experience with Fall and it's festivities, including dressing up in a costume. I had seen a fun set of costumes at Old Navy and decided to go hit up the store. When I got there I couldn't choose between the Tiger costume or the Dragon costume. So I decided to let Zek choose. I was super surprised that he made a choice when I verbally asked him which one he wanted. Without a doubt he pointed right to the big green shiny dragon costume. I knew right then it was the costume for Zek.

Robert and I had lots of fun dressing Zek up on multiple occasions.

We dressed him up the following times...

Just for fun

Zek's Cloth Diapers

Thank you to Grandma Flint for making all those awesome diapers for Zek!

We have blue ones and white ones, ones with owls and ones with dinosaurs!

Here are a few pictures of Zek in a pile of clean cloth diapers.

Camping Trip Part 2

The Howard's had taken some pictures for us while we were on our Pismo camping adventure.

Here we are on a hike around Bishop's peak, brings back memories of when we were college students and hiked bishops together quite often.

We also spent time hanging out at Pismo beach. I had lots of help with Zek trying to supervise him while he played in the sand. Mary Feffer and Brittany Howard watched Zek while I took a little nap on the beach! Thanks Mary and Brittany!

That hat looks big on Zek but it sure does the job to keep that precious little face protected from all those rays.

Zek had one of his best friends Jimmy to play with. It was fun to watch them hang out together.

Oh my gosh this is so cute. Jimmy gave Zek a big hug!

Zek loved crawling all through the sand...

Zek is ready to play volleyball!

Zek kept getting so much sand in his mouth!

Jimmy let Zek share his box of raisins:)

Hanging out at a surf shop in SLO!

Pumpkin Patch

We took Zek on his first pumpkin patch trip last weekend. We drove to Lombardi's Ranch and met up with Robert's parents Rick and Nancy and Josh and Brittany Howard. We had a lot of fun just hanging out and enjoying each other's company. It was especially fun for all of us to watch Zek explore.

Not so fond of the pumpkins at first...
