It's Santa Time

Once again we made the trek to the closest North Pole we could find to torture our child by forcing him to sit on some weird old stranger's lap and take a photo. He didn't cry but he also wouldn't smile - there's no joy in seeing Santa yet. Hopefully you will enjoy the photo as our son was forcibly restrained by the old dude.

Cannon "Going to School"

So Cannon loves trying out all the "big boy" stuff and really enjoys carrying his backpack although it's just as big as him.

Here is a video of the 1st time he got to wear it.

Halloween!

So Cannon had fun in his muscle-bound Spiderman costume for Halloween. He was skeptical of the costume at first but as soon as he saw Spiderman in the mirror he ran out of the costume shop dressing room and all around the store casting webs. It was love from then on. He must of shown it off to every visitor that came by in the weeks leading up to Halloween. For the big event (well, there were two) we "practiced" trick-or-treating at a neighborhood event the Friday before and went over to Uncle Hollis' house for the real deal on Saturday. He was pretty good at knocking on doors and saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank you" but not so good at relinquishing the candy into his Spiderman bucket. He also decided the mask wasn't worth it after the first half-block. Spidey's true identity was revealed for the remainder of the outing.

Zoo with Nana!

Even though it was a little chilly we braved the trip to Ft. Worth to see the animals with Nana. Cannon had a blast! He loved seeing the Gorillas, Penguins, and Jaguars.
There was an Orangutan that was playing peek-a-boo with us.

Cannon's 2nd B-day Party

So yeah, his birthday was a month ago...but to make up for it here is EXTRA content from the month of September. Enjoy!

Introducing....

Chase Danger Ritter

Yes...you read correctly! Lil Chase will be here in January and here is your look at the young lad.

Trip south

I took Cannon down to San Antonio a couple weeks ago to see cousins Seth and Logan. We went to the zoo, Sea World, and the pool. It was Cannon's first trip to an outdoor pool and boy did he enjoy himself! He also got to hang out with Papa and go swinging (oh!) and see Grandma Linda again...no pictures but it was greatness.
