Halloween pictures

We had a great Halloween with baby Doodle. Though it was not his first, he actually participated and sort of understood what it's all about. We picked up Mr. Doodlebug at the train station at 12:47, which BD loved. Like most kids his age he is crazy for trains.

After baby Doodle's two and a half hour nap we got him dressed in his costume -- he was a dog -- and gave him his pumpkin in which to collect candy. Baby Doodle has been into pushing the stroller instead of riding in it so when I oblige him it takes us a long time to get where we're going. We went to the Fiendling's house, well really it's Girlfiend and Boyfiend's house, and hung out with them for a bit. Then we went trick-or-treating on their block and the two blocks leading to our house. By the fourth or fifth house baby Doodle was saying "tickateat" at the door with his pumpkin outstretched. He got lots of delicious candy only a portion of which he'll be aloud to eat (the plain chocolate).

I put him to bed at 7:30 and had a great time at our annual neighborhood party that we host. It seems to get bigger every year (this was the third time we've held it). And now for the pictures . . .

I was trying to upload a few pictures but blogger seems to be having technical difficulties. I'll try to update this post later today -- after gym class. Sorry Aunt S.D. and Grandma.

You can really see the tail in this one. I made the costume.
