Halloween-ish

I thought I would be festive this whole weekend and wear some sort of costume-y get up while I was out and about, against Joel's wishes (he couldn't quite grasp the concept of a whole Halloween weekend).  That all changed though once snow was on the ground and my mind was grappling with the fact that it was still indeed October even though it felt like January.  However, an invite to a kid friendly Halloween party brought out the festive spirit again and the candy and orange frosted cupcake consumption began.  



I usually think of good costume ideas on November 1st and forget them by the following year.  This year I was pretty pleased with myself when I found a photo of a golfer costume online and realized that Jonah had everything (besides the argyle socks) in his closet.  I got men's socks at Target and just cut off the foot for instant baby leg warmers.

We spent the morning visiting great grandparents and aunties at work and when Jonah went down for his nap I went about my normal routine.


Staring blankly out the window...


and doing laundry.




When Jbear woke up he helped carve the pumpkin.


And took a bite out of it.


My son had no interest in collecting candy, which is great because I would obviously eat it all, but he actually went as far as taking a piece of candy out of his bag and throwing on the ground.



I can't believe these next photos were exactly a year ago!


Jonah was a baby hipster or the youngest American Apparel employee.  (I told you I can't think up costumes).


I am very aware that I do not use this blog to post flattering photos of myself.  If you're okay with that then I am too.  The wig I am wearing here was labeled as a sexy bob... ha... sexy... yeah right!

I hope you all had a fun Halloween!!!!


sexy bob wigs can be very itchy.
