October started out with Tanner getting his helmet. He has plagiocephaly (a flat head) and has since birth. Much to our dismay and the doctor's it wouldn't correct on its own, so on the helmet went. The first week was miserable, but now it's great. I actually love the helmet. It protects him mostly from his sister, but has also made some pretty nasty head bonks no big deal. He has had it on for just over a month now and it has already made a huge improvement. He is our handsome little fella helmet and all!
Next order of events for October was Brad's parents returning home from their mission. With 4 new grandchildren born while they were gone, the homecoming was extra special. We didn't think Ashlyn would remember them since she was only 18 months old when they left. But after a few minutes she treated them like they were never away. And of coarse all the babies were glad just to have another Grandma (and Grandpa) to kiss and hold them. Here is a picture of Tanner playing with his cousin Kelsey at the reunion.
Halloween was definetely a highlight this month. Ashlyn was a "nice" witch and Tanner an adorable skunk! Ashlyn caught on a lot faster this year that not being shy and saying "trick-or-treat" worked to her advantage. She made out like a bandit. Tanner just wishes he could eat all the good stuff.
