Shelley is so in love with my baby boy – and I mean….really…who isn’t! She was holding him while we were taking pictures and wanted me to come take him so I could take pictures with him…but this one was just too cute not to share. What a good Aunt she is!!!Halloween Oct. 2008 045We brought the double stroller and Lu brought her wagon. Between the two we were able to move the slower walkers quicker. Carter lasted most of the rounds before he was done in the stroller and Andrew LOVED going in the wagon. DSCN5514     DSCN5523

Andrew is quite scared of anything remotely scary…skeletons, spider webs, etc. We skipped a couple houses because he wouldn’t get too close. I really don’t know how kids know how to be afraid of certain things, but he is. (Like mother like son I suppose) It all started with a pirate skeleton my mom has at her house named “Murph”. He was on the porch one day when we went to visit and Andrew hasn’t stopped talking about him since. He calls him “guy” and then says “scared”. Poor boy! My mom had him inside facing the wall on Halloween so not to scare the kiddos. Hopefully this Halloween has not permanently scarred him!

This was Andrew by the end of the night. We only went around a block, but he was exhausted!!!! I said he looked like a melted crayon. Overall – considering I really do not like Halloween, it was a good, fun night!
