AJ did his first official trick or treating tonight at the age of four. He’s never gone before because we’ve always had more than enough junk food around and he didn’t know he was missing anything. Now that he’s in a daycare/preschool center, the kids talk and he’ll know he’s missing something. We knew that this would come to an end. When I asked him the best part of his day, he said, “Going trick or treating with Kim.” What was his favorite treat? A whistle he got at the last house they visited. Apparently it was extra spooky and only kids who went up on the porch and down to the far end to a man who scared them got candy. AJ was afraid. Kim said, “You’ve got enough candy, that isn’t worth it!” and the lady out front said they had other treats for those who didn’t dare to venture to the far end of the porch—and that was the whistle with vampire lips and fangs. It sounds like AJ thinks he got the best part of the deal!
Zoe has been a drooling fool. She went through every bib Marilyn had for her today at daycare. While she was in her jump swing during class tonight, she left a puddle in the tray! Maybe she’ll actually get some teeth soon. This adorable pumpkin outfit is one I got at a clothing swap in September. I took a chance that she’d still fit in 0-3 months clothing for Halloween. It really fit her fine—she might be a touch too long for it, but it didn’t look uncomfortable or anything. So, here she is at 6.5 months wearing her 0-3 month pumpkin outfit!
