Halloween

We carved pumpkins while Jake watched. He was more interested in chewing on his spoon. Don't our pumpkins look pretty good?

Jake looked adorable for his first Halloween. He went dressed as one of his mom's favorite animals: the giraffe. In the morning, he went to daycare in full costume. On Halloween night, we didn't actually go trick-or-treating because mommy and daddy didn't want to have to eat a bunch of candy. Jake visited with his grandparents instead and got some great non-sugary treats!

Jake is trying to help.

Lets eat it!
