Colten is tucked nicely in bed after a fun-filled Halloween. In fact, he was so excited for the big day that he had us up from 2:30 am - 5am and then again at 6 am to start the day with a yummy breakfast while sporting his pj's from the Belschner's (the glow in the dark eyes are too cool!) and his bib from the Melnik's. Thanks for helping us keep Colten festive all day!
After a half hour nap mid-morning, Aunt Carol came by for a visit, bringing more holiday treats, and then it was lunch and costume time!!! I have to admit that I was dreading putting Colten in his costume because he hates his winter coat so I assumed that a full suit would yield an even worse reaction. When we put on Colten's coat, he acts like he is paralyzed, except for his mouth because he sure does scream : > But to my surprise, Colten loved his costume; I even joked that maybe I'll forgo the coat and start using the monster costume through the winter : >
After a few photo ops with Mom and Dad, we headed to Grandpa and Grandma's house for a little trick-0r-treating (and of course more pics!). Colten loved all of his treats, especially the laughing pumpkin.
Before Colten got too fussy, we headed over to visit with Aunt Tunny. Colten always loves sitting on Aunt Tunny's lap : >
And finally we made our way back home after a short stop at Krissy and Victor's so Colten could finally meet his new best friend Kayleigh. Without even knowing it, Colten and Kayleigh ended up having matching onesies for Halloween so of course we had to take pictures! Aren't they so cute? : >
We ended the day by watching Daddy pass out candy to all of the trick-or-treaters. Colten was fascinated by all of the kids and their costumes. And I promised him that next year we would join the fun!
Happy Halloween to everyone!
Wow, that costume is adorable!! Colten is a real trooper- the past two years, I've tried to get Elizabeth into a full-body costume and it just got ugly both times. Colten looks like he really did well with it- and he looks sooooo cute. Hope you got more sleep tonight that last night!
