Ollie's 2nd Halloween has come and gone. This year he was a lot more involved with the tradition. He was a bumble bee, but wasn't thrilled with wearing the costume at all. He especially hated the hat, then again he hates all hats.
On Friday, we went to Tresa's work for a Halloween party and pictures (I'll post them later this week). He was shy, but grabbed the candy whenever it was offered. He wasn't able to say trick or treat, it came out more like ick eat. Of course it was never said at the appropriate time. He mostly stared at the strange people, lunged at candy bowls when offered and was very shy.
Sunday came without many trick or treaters to our house, but Ollie was in the candy grabbing mood. First was the fight with the costume. Next came the fun. Ollie's uncle Dale took him out for about 30 minutes and the candy lunge continued. His bucket was full so they came back and Ollie got a few bites and a sucker. He was changed into his pajamas that look like a cat. He looked more like he belonged in "Where the Wild Things Are". The hood wasn't thrown off for several hours. Annie came home with a few friends that had kids and Ollie went Trick or Treating in his cat pajamas. He came back with another full bucket. Ollie got his teeth brushed well last night.
We now have too much candy, both from Ollie's adventure and the leftovers. Ollie had a good time, but now he knows what candy is, where it is and what he wants to eat all day. The little one crashed about 9 pm and his parents weren't too far behind. He had a long day.
