You are being a Halloweenie

(preface to post: I don't know how bloggers have the patience...it took like a year to upload this photos. Hence, the biannual, mediocre post.)

So this is how our halloween festivities started...we'll pretend he's just getting into character by thrashing around like a shark.



The ONLY picture I have featuring the tell-tale fin of the shark...


SOOOO excited to go trick or treating...


But once we got outside I think he finally realized this was supposed to be fun. (I don't know why he wouldn't have been tipped off by the epic struggle which was getting the costume on:) He started to think he was pretty cool, because when we'd try to move those teeth out of his eyes, he'd move 'em right back.

He was apprehensive at first, but started to get the hang of it!

And dad was there in case we needed to play some tricks...

I made a great trick or treat bag out of DUCT TAPE! (Patting myself on the back!)

Checking out the loot...

And some other fall happenings:

Rolling pumpkins down the hall...

Memorizing the layout of every park within a 10 mile radius...

Proving he is in fact my child...(check out the hands!)

Hiding in favorite places...

And being coerced into leaving the house by Mr. Outdoors...
