After 3pm(when I last posted), Halloween began shaping up. First, we went to the pumpkin patch - or Winn Dixie -(no more pumpkins) then Publix (success) to pick from their six pumpkins... 4 of which had odd painted faces on them. So, we had our 2 pumpkins. No time to carve them, but at least we had pumpkins! I don't think Tucker even noticed we weren't in a fun, cute pumpkin patch and everyone at Publix thought it was normal that I was taking pictures of my son picking out his pumpkin on Halloween day at the front of Publix. It worked.
Then we headed to Firehouse Subs where I got word that they hand out free fire hats to kids. Mission accomplished - we have a costume!
Then we headed to Scotty and Ted's for some Trick-or-Treating. Tucker and Teddy (the smiley puppy dog) got to ride in the wagon. They were loving it!
By the end of the night, Mary Scott (the kitty cat w/ Tuck's fire hat) was in the wagon, the boys were walking and everyone was tired and ready for bed!
This is just a picture of Kyle and his partner, Ted. Aren't they cute?
At the fire station. Tucker is really starting to grasp the bigger world around him. He is very aware of passing trucks, airplanes, fire engines, etc and always gives them a wave! He is particularly in to fire trucks and makes the sound something like "we-ah-we-ah-we-ah" - I'm not sure how that works out phonetically, but it is really cute when he does it.
We had a great visit with Pop and Nan... he really enjoys having people to entertain and is particularly fond of extra folks staying in our house. He wakes up from every nap ready to get busy bringing everyone joy.
