Okay, so I forgot to rotate some of the pics and don't know if I can do it on here. The grasshoppers are just funny. Nathan caught them doing it so I had to get a pic. Our pumpkins are awesome. I made the girl and the baby pumpkins and Nathan made the scary one that's puking. And, of course, we have Alex in the halloween costume I worked so hard on. Isn't it cute. It took a lot of work and I'm really happy with how it turned out. We took him around trick or treating last night. First, we went around in our neighborhood. Nobody had their lights on and some that did looked so ghetto we didn't want to go to them. Sad, huh. So, we packed up and went over to some of Nathan's friends neighborhoods that are a lot nicer. We were going to do a lot more over there but we ended up talking to his friends most of the time. Alex was digging the whole trick or treating thing. He carried around his little bucket and thought it was cool people were putting things in it. At first he was kind of scared. He was holding on to my finger so tight and then by the end he went right up to the doors all on his own and waved at the people as he was leaving. He also loved his costume. At first when I was fitting it to him, seeing if I needed to make it shorter or whatever, he hated it and would scream and cry and run away from me. But, last night he really liked it. He was so cute. He went up to the mirror and stared at himself and rubbed his soft tummy. I think he thought he looked like a doggy. Anyway, we had hardly any trick or treaters last night and we bought a whole bunch of candy for it. So, we have a lot left over and it really has to disappear cause I just can't help myself when it's around. That's why I don't buy candy or snacks cause I'll eat them. Anyway, I've got to take my afternoon nap. Adios!
