Halloween '09

There's something about taking my kid trick or treating that makes me feel like an official mom.  This is the first time I've ever done it.  I remember going as a kid so well.  It was SO FUN to walk around with Gavin and have him look around with such wonder.  After awhile I think his mind changed from, "What the heck is going on here?" to "People are just giving me candy?  Awesome!!"  He figured it out pretty fast and ate three suckers before we were done.  
This little bear is turning into a real animal.  He's got attitude, spunk, and surely has his own personality coming through.  We love him to pieces.  Brian and I were just talking about how it's weird how much we can love our little guy but at the same time how relieved we are when 7:30 comes around each night.  Isn't that the strangest thing?  

We just remembered that it's daylight savings tomorrow.  Brian went in and got him out of bed so he wouldn't be going to be at 6:15.  Oops.  He's thinking he's hot stuff to be hanging out with us late at night when it's dark outside.

It was funny to see your little guy walking around trick or treating with a sucker in his mouth. He was in heaven!
