Peter's 1st Halloween

So, like any new mom I was very excited for Peter's 1st Halloween. Peter, on the other hand, was not so sure about it as evidenced by the pictures. In fact, he cried for the first few minutes after I put his pumpkin suit on.

To make him more pumpkin like, I stuffed one of his blankets into his pumpkin suit. That did not make Peter very happy because he could not crawl very well at all--poor kid!

Peter is really good about letting us put things on his head. He will just ignore it and let it stay there as long as it does not impede his crawling or cruising about.

We're Here!

So, we finally made it to Texas! And in one piece thankfully. The first day (Friday) we drove from American Fork to Albuquerque, NM; we didn't leave until 1 p.m. from Provo, so we didn't get to Albuquerque until 2 a.m. The second day we drove from Albuquerque to Austin, TX, and again, we didn't make it to Austin until 2 a.m. Then, on Sunday we drove from Austin to Houston and checked into our apartment. By the way, Peter was WONDERFUL! He hardly cried the entire trip. What an amazing traveler!
My parents stayed for one week to help us get unpacked and settled in. I think we finally may have most of the boxes unpacked. Scott is enjoying his job--the only problem is that they weren't expecting him until the end of October, so nothing was ready when he came. It will probably be a while before we get another car, so for now if I want transportation during the day, I have to drive Scott to the vanpool (about one mile away) at 5:30 a.m. I am glad that he is able to use public transportation though, it saves on the gas bill a lot! Well, here is the official grand tour of our apartment. Excuse all of the adjectives of lovely--my script was impromptu.
