Crew was such a blast this year. He totally caught on to the concept of Halloween. Every pumpkin, ghost or skeleton he saw was met with squeals of excitement and comments to the effect of "Spooky Halloween, right, Mommy?"
The new found understanding created a minor catastrophe when the week before Halloween he got it in his mind that he did not, in fact, want to be a train conductor. Nope, he was heck bent on being a pumpkin. As in the costume you put on your infant because they are unpredictably chubby, can't walk and frankly, can't refuse in favor of something cooler.
Luckily, a visit to the party store for a train whistle = crisis averted.
I had fun taking photos of him during a church Halloween party, on his way to a daycare party and then of course, the big night.

| Finally made the connection between Trick or Treat and getting free candy. |
