Halloween

My kids are finally getting old enough to have their own ideas about what they want to be for Halloween (darn). Spencer's pretty easy-going, but Carson insisted on being Batman. He LOVES Batman, I don't know why! I had this cape with the hood that I was saving for Christmas, but I decided to give it to him early. He giggled while I put it on, then kept running to the bathroom to look in the mirror "to see if I look goooood!" He goes around with a fierce scowl when he's in character and says, "I'm not Carson, I'm Batman!"

So he was Batman for the community Pumpkin Walk and the school carnival. Spencer was an army guy and some kind of crocodile.

Then on Halloween night, I got my way. I've been planning since last year for them to be Thing One and Thing Two from Dr. Seuss. Unfortunately, Thing Two wasn't feeling well that night and said he'd rather stay home (yes, he was sick)! So Andy had to fill in. I sprayed their hair blue--Spencer took it like a man and Andy screamed like a girl. It was pretty rainy that night, so they didn't get as much loot as usual, but it was enough.

Carson is auditioning for the Chippendales!! Just kidding--his jammies were still in the dryer after his bath, so I put his robe on, but he didn't like wearing it. He came out of his room looking like this!

Spencer came out to get a drink one night. I was still getting Carson into bed, so I couldn't help him. I heard some noises, including an "Oof!" and then a "Help!" I have no idea what happened, but I found him like this! Have you ever fallen into the sink while getting a drink of water?? Only Spencer....
