Monkey Time


Halloween this year was much more animated than last year when Jack was a pumpkin and not very mobile. This year, he was again true to his costume, a monkey. The first time he tried it on and looked in the mirror he smiled and said "hoo, hoo, hoo". And from then on he wore it many times. Yesterday he learned about jack-o-lanterns and tried to reach into the mouth to grab the light (pretty unsafe since the light was a candle) . He also ran around with his buddy Owen in their matching monkey costumes.
We didn't trick-or-treat but we did go to a neighbors house for pizza where Jack was surrounded by girls or really a care bear and princess. I've been told that next year he'll have an opinion about what he is, so I've enjoyed this last chance at choosing his costume.
Oh - and for those of you who thought he was going to be a lion, you are correct. However, after trying on the lion costume, let's just say it was a bit snug and hampered Jack's mobility.
