Let the wild rumpus start! Jude decided (well, maybe I decided.... I thought I better get the cute costume in before he starts wanting to be a superhero every year) to be Max from Where the WIld Things Are. That is one of our favorite books to read before bed time. (Ryan and I actually want to get a babysitter so we can go see the new movie that came out). He had a great time Trick-or-treating (the sucker at the 3rd house was the best - he would have gone home happy after that one). It almost brought a tear to my eye to see hear him say "Trick-or-Treat" and grab the candy and put it in his bag. I even got him to say "Thank you" after. He is growing up so fast (2nd birthday November 21!!!!). He even helped us carve pumpkins earlier in the morning. I made a Mickey Mouse free hand and was quite impressed. Well, I guess the squirrels didn't like it because they ate the whole face out and all that was left was the main shape of Mickey's head. At least I got a picture to prove I really carved it.
We also took Jude to his first birthday party. Friends from college have a little girl, Rianna, that just turned three. Again, almost shed a tear when I got the invitation - Jude's first invite! We had a great time at Kohl's Children's Museum, and had a great time celebrating with them.
Happy Halloween everyone - and Merry Christmas! he, he, he
