Halloween 2008

Well, we had a very fun Halloween! Our original plan was to trick-or-treat in our neighborhood and, since all our friends already had plans, that is what we ended up doing! Eli had so much fun! Jenny did great! She hung out for a bit in the stroller and then, after one of the individuals passing out candy scared her, in my arms.

Here is our fireman and cowgirl!! Aren't they cute!!

Going up to the first house!!

This one is fitting, don't you think???

Check out that loot!!

Jenny didn't last too long. After her bedtime feeding (in someone's yard) it didn't take her long to pass out in my arms. That is how she stayed until we came home and laid her down about an hour later. So sweet!! Eli got a couple of pieces of candy before heading off to bed where he quickly fell asleep!! He was beat!!

Our little man is now 4 years old. I can't believe how big he is getting. He had his well visit yesterday and he is 80% for weight and 84% for height. HOLY COW!!! The doctor said at this age it is genetics that makes him as tall as he is. Well, for those of you that know John and I, you know we are not at all tall. Maybe he has gotten the gene that my cousin Jason got who is a whole lot taller than his parents! John is hoping for that!! We had Eli's birthday party last Saturday and it was so much fun!! I will post pictures as soon as I get them from my sister. She is the photographer for all family events!! In the meantime, check out her blog. She posted pictures from the party!!

Hope everyone had a fun Halloween and got lots of candy to enjoy!!
