"Mommy and I started our day going to a costume party with our friends (I thought I would bring along a couple of my favorite things - can you see them in my hands?)."
Charlie Brown (Greg), The Great Pumpkin (Owen), the Pumpkin Patch (Dani), and a growing pumpkin (baby in Dani's belly) had a fun time trick-or-treating.
Mommy, Owen and baby pumpkin!
It's hard work being such a cute pumpkin. It takes lots of practice. First one needs to look at himself in the mirror...
Next one needs to practice lounging like a pumpkin - maybe even snuggling with friends while eating a snack...
Then one needs to create some beautiful art like a pumpkin...
Finally one needs to set himself up next to other pumpkins to see if he blends in. Can you spot the human pumpkin?
In case you can't read the expression or feel his angst, Owen is completely annoyed that a day in the life of the pumpkin must end at some point. In this case it was bedtime. Sorry pumpkin.
"He, he, he! Is it Halloween yet?! Mommy says I can dress up. Should I be a tiger?"
"How about a rock star (If you can't tell, I'm singing my ABCs.)?"
"Or a bunny?"
Owen was so proud of his new look! Going around pant-less is always a hit, but when Daddy got home Owen insisted that he wear Daddy's socks. So up they went...past his knees!
Of course the shoes had to come next. Owen eventually took the shoes off, but the socks had to stay... all the way through dinner. They would have made their way into the bathtub if it were up to him, but Mommy put her sock-less foot down.
Owen's expression is saying: "Why are you laughing Mommy?" Hint: look closely at Owen's left hand, the bottom of his right pant leg and the top of his head.
Mommy: "You shook baby powder on your head?!!! Don't move. Let me grab the camera!!"
Grandma is good at giving big bear hugs!
Papa and Owen are usually too busy to sit still for a shot, but they did it!!
Uncle Mitch gave Owen a Husky uniform and made sure he packed his own so they could match.
Owen playing 'grab the hat' with Uncle Clete.
The pool was full, the water warm, and the sun just right.
Owen loved dumping this big glass of water on his tummy.
Grandma's garden is full of flowers, but Owen found the loneliest ones and visited them everyday.
Owen spent most of his days at Grandma's in this uniform.
