Daddy was in recruiters training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. Our friends the Gonzalezes live in San Antonio, so you and I were able to go stay with them for a couple of weeks and see Daddy while he was there. This was also your first time on a plane and I sure was nervous to fly with you but you did so great! You were very quiet and sweet. The only time you were noisy was on the first leg of our flight home when you were very excited. You played with the window shade and made lots of happy noises and squeals. You seemed to really love the airport too.
While we were in San Antonio we got to go to Sea World and Six Flags. You absolutely loved the animals although you wouldn't pet the dolphin. When we went into the lorikeet exhibit you got really nervous having those birds landing on you but I loved it! We took you to the Shamu show and you squealed and squealed and pointed - it was the cutest thing! At Six Flags you rode every kiddie ride that you were allowed on. I hoped that you would love them and you did like them but you usually got bored before the ride ended. I thought that was kind of funny!
This month I decided to start a little journal of funny or cute things you do and say, so I will include that here:
10/06
- You put your baby doll's pacifier clip on your arm to wear it like a bracelet.
- You chug your milk like you haven't had a drink in days.
- You tried to put your bib around your waist like an apron.
- You love to eat the sausages off my pizza!
- You absolutely LOVE to accessorize. You are constantly bringing me headbands, bows, hair ties, jewelry, and shoes wanting me to help you put them on. :)
10/07
- Today you made your first "drawing" with crayons.
- You love your "baby" that has a pacifier clip. You carry it everywhere! This morning it was the first thing you asked for when you got up.
- You walked around saying, "No no, don't touch, no no, don't touch." (You pronounce it 'do-ta.')
- You like to wear lots of long necklaces.
10/08
- You dumped all the toys out of your collapsible canvas box and played with the box instead - carried it around like a purse, sat in it, stood in it, etc.
- You called chicken "chikee."
10/09
- You carry your purse into church like a pro.
- You love to play with your shoes!
- You like to "pat pat" our dog Pixie.

10/19
- You love balloons, which you call "boos."
- You call buttons "butty."
- You lifted up your shirt and flashed a smile when I asked where your belly is.
- You LOVE shoes. LOVE them. You want to wear them, look at them, play with them, try them on, and buy them!
10/28
- I think a lot of your baby babbles sound Asian. :)
- You said "bu-fy" (butterfly) for the first time.
Halloween - For your second Halloween we visited the pumpkin patch, dressed up and went to enjoy the festivities at downtown Broken Arrow with Grams, Pops, Uncle Caleb, Aunt Jenn, Jordan, Tatum, Alex, Grandpa, Nana, Uncle Jacob, Aunt Jess, Jase, Uncle Sam and Uncle Drew. (You are very loved!) On Halloween night we were home by ourselves (Daddy was still in San Antonio) so we just passed out candy to the Trick-or Treaters. You loved seeing all of their costumes!
