Halloween

So, I've been on vacation for the past week. But before I get to that post, I need to share pictures of Zachary in his halloween costume. This year he was dressed up as a monkey. I let him pick his outfit and this is what he wanted to be. I think he did a great job of picking it.

For tick-or-treating Zachary went with his cousins Ethan and Emily. They went as Mickey and Minnie Mouse. Most people thought Zach was Curious George even though he was just a monkey. Either way it works. I tend to call him Curious George anyways because he's always so curious about everything. He does so many things that remind me of a monkey, except throw his poop for which I am grateful, that I've often called him my little monkey as well. So I thought the outfit was very fitting. He definitely enjoyed himself. The first house we went to Zachary tried to go inside. I think this was because they had tons of toys in their front room. We've never been to a house we didn't go inside. It was a natural response. Towards the end though his bag got a little heavy for him to carry so when we rang the door bell he would squat down and set his bag on the ground and make the person handing out the candy come to him. He was usually 2 to 3 feet away from the door. But everytime someone gave him candy he would come tell me, "I got some candies mom!" It was all good fun Zach's first night trick-or-treatin.

I do have to say his favorite part was the banana in his pocket. He's trying to grab it in the first picture.
