Isn't he the cutest Thomas the Train that you've ever seen? He picked this out himself, when David took him to Party City and told him to pick any costume on their big wall.
We started off our trick-or-treating with a quick trip to my parent's house. He got to practice his doorbell ringing, which he was pumped about.
We then came back home and walked around the neighborhood with Derek's family. While we did get a little late of a start just past 7, those 2 little guys were the last ones standing!! They made it until nearly 8:30 and couldn't have had a better time ringing doorbells and getting candy.
I was so proud of Nico tonight. He caught on pretty fast to the concept and loved ringing the doorbells. He would say "thank you" so loudly and proudly and walk with such enthusiasm to the next house!
One guy gave him a few large handfuls and he cracked me up as he said, "I'll be back!" He also told a lady "onto the next!" after she gave him some candy. Sometimes we wonder where he gets some of these things he says.
I'd say he made out well this year! Too bad he can't eat hardly any of it though since a lot of it is either too chewy or too hard. We felt kinda bad as we sorted through all of the little guy's candy and debated on what the best pieces were for us to have!
I'm thinking this may go down as my favorite Halloween yet. How wonderful it is to relive these holidays through the eyes of your child!
