This is how we thought we were going to celebrate Halloween. Jack developed a nasty fever yesterday, and spent most of the day just like this......sleeping. In fact, he was just waiting for me to do my hair and get ready when he asked for a pillow and blanket. He curled right up and slept on my floor for an hour and a half. He took another 3 hour nap in the afternoon. Let's just say that is completely uncharacteristic for this stubborn little child. Luckily, after a couple of doses of tylenol, and one dose of advil - fever gone! All better! Whew!

So, instead staying home in bed all day today, we had some FUN!!! We went to Creative Minds Learning Center for their Halloween Party. Jack got to try all sorts of things.........

He loved playing on the farm, of course. He especially liked playing with the horses, and planting in the garden.

Then he was off to the grocery store to fill his cart, and ring everything up on the register.

Next, he was off to a dinosaur excavation. This was right up there with the farm on his favorites.

He became a mechanic, and changed some tires, filled the car with gas, and checked under the hood.

He turned into a performer at just the right time to sing and dance on stage.

And, he finished up on the pirate ship. He kept repeating "Arghhhh!", and "Ahoy Maties!"

Isn't this the cutest little giraffe you've ever seen? In our community, we celebrated Halloween on Saturday instead of Sunday, so we took off for trick-or-treating this evening.

Jack has been practicing his door approach - "Trick-or-Treat"! He also used "Happy Halloween" a lot. I think this cute little face got him a ton of extra candy. By the end of the evening, he didn't even bother carrying his pumpkin - "it's too heavy!"

Jack was very proud of his tail. As I was snapping pictures, he was sure to ask for one of his rear end so we could document the cute little tail.

Jack's cousin, Alexa was his trick-or-treat buddy. As you can tell, after the first few houses, Jack was simply done walking. He has us all figured. He knows he only has to make it to the door to get candy, and he figures someone can just push him between houses. From his candy stash, I think it worked.
