My what a change in our Halloween this year from last! Last year, Colter was barely crawling, and definitely not at all aware of what was going on. This year was such a blast!! Colter dressed up as a monkey and you couldn't help but smile when you saw his padded monkey bum waddle by.
We started the night with Chipotle and 2 buck burritos for dressing up. It had been raining pretty hard for 2 days straight, so we were delighted when the rain randomly stopped right when we were getting ready to go back to our house for trick or treating.
He LOVED trick or treating. I thought he might go up to a few houses with James & Saisha and then be done, but he walked our whole neighborhood (even up the huge hill) and went to every single house. He quickly got the routine down.. running up the driveway, knocking on the door, saying "treat!" (definitely no tricks for him!) and then running back down the driveway with a piece of candy in his hand. If someone put the candy right into his pumpkin bag, he would dive bomb to their bowl and try to take another piece. Funny thing is, he never even tried any of the candy he so graciously collected for his parents and friends :)
Back at our place, we decided to do some smores in the oven since it was pretty chilly out. I made the awesome choice to give Colter 1 square of hershey's chocolate, 1/2 a marshmallow and a graham cracker square. I didn't think it was a big deal until... bedtime! He was so exhausted but could no go to sleep so he didn't fall asleep until 9:30. Party man!!
Holidays are so much fun with little kiddos! Can't wait until next year when we'll have two little munchkins to dress up!!
