Halloween!!!

This was Christopher's first Halloween that he went trick or treating. I wasn't sure how he was going to do, if he would even want to wear his costume, if he would be too scared to go out when he saw decorations, if he would be able to keep up with other kids... any of it :)

It was perfect.

He LOVED his costume...

He was a little unsure about it when we were putting it on. So I showed him his pirate book (in his hand) and that we was dressing like a pirate. He finally got it and just got more and more into character as we moved on.

We headed over the Chris and Kerri's house for the festivities. We enjoyed dinner and then we went out with all the kids. 5 kids in all I think.

Then we were off. We were trick or treating in Spreckles. All of the new houses have SOOO many steps to the front door. Fine for Christopher to get up, but he had trouble coming down without a rail.

So one of us would help or one of the older kids took him. He loved it.

He had so much fun. I think he was dragging his pumpkin by the end. Now at home, he still has it out. If he wants a piece of candy, he grabs his pumpkin and comes and asks for candy. Like it's the only way he gets candy now, if it's in the pumpkin. Very cute...

Video Assistant

Just a cute video of Christopher playing with my camera...


Pumpkin Patch

So we had family photos done a week ago and after we took Christopher out to the pumpkin patch to have some fun (that's why he's dressed up a bit). He had a lot of fun.

Pumpkins!

They had a little area with animals which was stinky, but Christopher loved it.

Toys....

Wow, so it's after the birthday and I think Christopher is still getting use to all of the new toys. Some we haven't even put out yet so spread out the fun. He really gets into his toys, the playing, imagination time, he seems to grasp a lot of the concepts and plays them out.

Even if it's trying to feed the dog vegetables...

Cooking

Christopher's big present for his birthday from Mommy and Daddy was a play kitchen. Which he loves. He loves bringing the food up from the playroom into the kitchen to eat, cook, play, whatever.

See, here he's eating spaghetti (or "ghetti") with a spoon out of a bowl ALL while sitting on one of the potty chairs.

I don't know... he just has fun with the toys.
