Halloween!

As I mentioned before, We carved pumpkins the weekend before Halloween!  I really thought Jaxson would love it, but instead he wouldn't even touch it!  He kept saying, "hands dirty, Mommy"  "Washa hands!"  I didn't take a picture of them all lit up, but they were nice.  He still comes home and looks at the "Jacknlaterns" on the steps!







Can you guess what Jaxson was for Halloween?  Mickey Mouse of course!

At first we picked out this costume... It was so cute!  We went to order it and they didn't have one in Jaxson's size!  So we created our own!  I have to say...he looked so cute in it!  I think it made him look a little less like a baby too!


He even had a Mickey Mouse pumpkin to hold his candy!  THANKS GRAMMY!



He was so much more into Halloween this year!  At first, I don't think he was sure why he had to wear the stuff and when the first piece of candy hit his bucket he wanted to take it out and eat it.  He finally put it back when I told him we were going to get more!
We "trunk-or-treated" in our church parking lot first and then visited Grandma, but the first real house we went to, he did not want to go up the stairs until I told him that they would give him candy.  He kept saying, "Get more candy"

Sunday night he slept in his Mickey Mouse shoes and would not take them off to go to daycare!  When I got there to pick him up, Grandma had taken them off and so we left with no shoes on! HAHA!  The kid LOVES to wear shoes!

Can you tell he just woke up?  Poor baby slept hard that night!

Jaxson is heading to Ohio with Grandma and Grandpa at the end of the month!  We took him on that trip when he was 6 weeks old so this will be the first time much of my Dad's family has seen him since then!  I wish we could go too, but I am so glad they will get to see Jaxson!  I have got a list a mile long of things to do during the 10 days he is gone!  I am sad that we will miss Thanksgiving with him and so will my fabulous in-laws, but I am thankful that he will get to visit my family again, especially my Grandma!  I want him to remember her!

  1. What a cute Mickey Mouse you have!

    I wanted to tell you thank you for the sweet comment you left on Jess's blog. I was humbled by it. I pray that I am an encouragement to others, but so many times I feel that I am so far from the person I know God desires me to be. It's a constant struggle, a constant challenge, but I know that He can work in me in ways I could NEVER work in myself!

    Thanks for being so sweet- it brightened my day!
