Halloween TOTing

Henry decided he was done with Casper by time Halloween actually rolled around. That morning he wore his triceratops costume to the gym but at TOT time he wanted to wear a pirate costume we had instead.

This is a picture of them when I took them to the outlet mall to TOT.

Lil' Monster's Ball

 Henry had another chance to wear his Casper the Ghost costume. These pictures were taken at the Lil' Monster's Ball and so far has been my favorite Halloween event by far.

This is Henry playing in one of the sensory tables.

Here he is playing in the other sensory tables. He loved this one and I am going to have to make some moon sand for home.

Henry was not too sure of the fortune teller, although mommy knew she was. She was my pottery teacher and after she heard me talk she knew who I was (I was dressed up as a witch) and knew who my kids were.

 They had a storyteller who read several Halloween stories to them. Henry really enjoyed them.

These are their pumpkins that they carved with our (heavy) assistance.

Be sure to check out sister's blog for other pictures, as well as my Wordless Wednesday on Save Green Being Green on Halloween.

Playgroup Halloween Party

 Henry's primary costume is Casper the Ghost. I made the cape and there is a hood that goes with it too, but he didn't wear it. This was a fabric piece that you cut out all the pieces and stitched it together. It said it was for ages 3-6. I know he is big boy, but I couldn't imagine his 6 year old sister wearing this. And the hood is kinda small, but he will wear it once for pictures because doing the edging on it was a bit of a pain.

 He was trying to jump rope with Carrie and Molly.

He thought he was funny and was hiding from me under a table.

Halloween 2010

The top picture can also be seen in the collage below that was taken at our playgroup Halloween party. Henry wore 2 costumes that Isabel had worn when she was 17 months, a pumpkin & a mouse.

This collage is from when we attended Isabel's preschool halloween party. I thought it would be fun to bring him dressed too.

Last year, when Henry was 1 day old, we took him trick-or-treating to one house (closest neighbors). This year he got to do all the neighborhood trick-or-treating with his sister (until she got cold.) I pulled the kids around in their wagon.

We also took the kids to halloween event at RBNC. And daddy also took both kids to the haunted house put on my our high school SADD group. And I brought the kids to a Halloween/Monster storytime to which I let them go dressed in their costumes for.

Pumpkin Carving

This is Henry's first time digging out the guys of a pumpkin. He was just too cute! Lookin' in & Diggin' in. I ended up carving & painting a spider on the front of his pumpkin. A picture of that will come later.
