Halloween Trick-or-Treating

Ian was a bulldozer and Milo was a tree for Halloween. They had a wonderful time, and consumed more sugar than they've ever had in their entire lives.



Getting two toddlers to look at the camera at the same time is hard enough. Adding candy to the mix made photo-taking completely impossible.


The shops in Lincoln Square had candy for the kids. From now on, Ian will probably expect shop owners to greet him with candy.


If you look closely, you will notice that Milo has just dived head-first into the wagon. Milo loved the wagon. Ian wanted to walk the entire time. There was candy to be had, and no time to waste.

I eventually convinced Ian to ride in the wagon for a bit when I promised to give him some of his candy early.




Jane made Ian a truck blanket which was a huge hit once Ian and Milo figured out that it would help return feeling to their hands and feet.


They must have given us good candy, because I look pretty excited here.


At this house, the lady said, "What a nice tractor!".
Ian looked at her horrified and then sternly said, "I BULLDOZER, not TRACTOR!"

She looked perplexed that the difference mattered. Clearly, she was a mother to girls, not little boys.



Ian's bucket from Buscia was totally full by the end of our day. It was a very, very successful Halloween.



Happy Halloween!

Such cute pictures! Was Milo's tree in any way wary of Ian's bulldozer? Clear-cutting has to be an issue close to the hart of any tree.
