♥Happy Halloween
posted on Wednesday, October 31, 2007.













We are all on a sugar high including The Boy, who is currently bouncing off the walls like a ping pong ball. No actually, i hear him in the living room with The Daddy practicing how to say 'i love you' .... but , he is no where near ready for bed, still going strong til 4 in the morn. The Boy enjoyed Trick or Treating. His costume was a big hit and all the other trick or treaters and candy givers loved it. I'm pretty proud... i made that costume... yep, sewed it all by myself. And as you see The Boy is pimping his Elmo bucket. Cool kid!

♥Pumpkin Carving
posted on Tuesday, October 23, 2007.

A week before Halloween.












We carved our pumpkin today. A First time for Vincent and he acted as if he didn't care if it was his last. He refused to stick his hand into the pumpkin, as if his hand would disappear into the deep dark hole if he did, he decided that using a pumpkin shovel instead would be the best approach, after all who cares if the shovel drops in there The Daddy will get it back out, but if my hand drops in there i could never see it again! He didn't really like the texture of the pumpkin goo and wasn't pleased when the seeds stuck to his skin.











He became bored with the whole situation really quick and was way more interested in the rabid squirrel in the tree than the pumpkin that he has been staring at on the dinning room table for the past two weeks. Tired and bored, he went to take a nap before it was done being carved. Maybe next year he will be a little more involved.

♥Pumpkin Patches Rock!
posted on Tuesday, October 9, 2007.










I have always been a fan of Halloween, starting the first of October Id be considering costume after costume until i decide on the perfect one. Over the years i have dressed as a Snow White, a witch, a pumpkin, a clown, a cat, a vampire 3 years in a row, and funny enough when i was three weeks pregnant with Vincent, {before we had taken a pregnancy test} i was a Playboy Bunny and a hot one too. I pretty much always dress in a costume and trick or treat with the best of them and when some asshole adult wants to mock me and say "arnt you to old to dress up and trick or treat?" i shoot back with my one-liner "traditions never get old".














Last year was the first year in many that i didn't dress up. It was the day after Vincents 5 month birthday and I was going through a hard time in my life having alot to do with the baby blues and i chose Halloween Day to go to the doctor and ask for medicine to help make things better, I still dressed Vincent in his bear costume and took him around the block trick or treating just so people could aw over him and tell me how cute he was.








Vincents first halloween costume




























This year though i feel like myself again and I'm not letting anything stop me from enjoying this Halloween with my son. We went today to the Pumpkin Patch to pick out a pumpkin, and next week we will be going out for costumes where i will make vincent try on probably 5 different costumes before i decide on the perfect one. Vincent loved the Pumpkin Patch today, we had decided to let him pick his own pumpkin... putting him down to walk and selecting the first one he touched thinking that that was obviously the one he wanted. He did a great job and couldn't have chose a better pumpkin, infact we bought him two, the one we will carve and then the baby one to hold and play with. The week before Halloween this baby's gonna be carved into the best Jack-o-lantern face on the block. We will hand out a bag of candy for about an hour and then off we go to trick or treat on our own, leaving behind the Jack to watch over the house with is fiery smile and squinty eyes.
