This was Henry last year at this same fair. How does he still fit into this jacket? Magic?

Treat-Treating

MOM

The other day I thought it would be fun to let Henry color on the pages of an old magazine. For five minutes he must have thought I was the coolest mom ever because I was totally okay with him coloring on a book. After every scribble, he'd look at me like, "Really? This is okay?!" I left the room and when I came back he had placed those glass marbles on her eyes and scribbled out her pupils and her mouth. Also, the picture had slipped down so that the "MOM" we had written earlier was visible. I don't know but I think some child psychologists would have a real field day with this one!

This is how we do iiiiiit: carving a brum-brum

OH WOW!

Someone doesn't "get it"

Henry helps

Halloween '11

picture by caila

I'm so behind on posting here because of school. BUT I just finished a huge assignment and things are basically downhill from here so I'm feeling good. Hopefully I'll be able to keep this blog a little more up to date now, I've really missed it.

This Halloween was a ton of fun. Last year was good too but Henry was so little that he had no idea all of the awesome things going on around him. Boring! This year he was running up to houses yelling, "TREAT-TREAT!" with half of a KitKat bar smeared across his face. He walked at least 10 blocks on his own and refused to let us carry his huge bowl of candy. This year we walked him up to every scary thing we could find, you know, testing to see what scares him and what doesn't and WHOA, this kid is afraid of nothing! I mean, he literally grabbed a sucker out of a dead ghoul's hand without even batting an eye. It blows my mind, considering even Sesame Street scared the crap out of me until I was 4.

These pictures are from a pre-Halloween party at the YMCA. He was a Savannah tourist this year (minus a big camera because I'm lazy), although we got the following guesses and I think they're all pretty good:

1. Johnny Depp

2. Hunter S. Thompson in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

3. A Hawaiian boy (wth?)

4. Gilligan

He wanted to take all of these ducks home and it really frustrated him that they had to stay in the pool. The little boy running the game would say, "No No baby, you have to take a prize- not a duck" and then he'd hand Henry the prize bucket. Henry would take like, three prizes at a time and the little boy would get all frustrated again. Freaking babies, eh?

Reading his Halloween card from Grandma and Grandpa!

OKDONE.

too much fun.
