SOOO CUTE !!! Jamie found full body costumes at Costco for the kids - Avery was a lion, complete with full head of hair/mane, and Connor was an elephant, with a trunk hanging off his head. We took them to the Carlsbad Company Stores the weekend before halloween, as the stores were handing out candy for the kids. There were a lot of kids around, and the babies had a good time "walking around like crazy people" and going in many of the stores.
One store had a lady dressed as a cat and she was kneeling down at the entrance to the store with a bucket of candy. The kids went up to her and didn't know what to do - kept their 3 feet of distance and just stared. Connor had candy already in both hands from a previous stop....after some coaching, Connor took the Baby Ruth he had in one hand and set it down on its end (!!) to make space in his hand for the new candy. Connor had a bag from some previous store that he was using as his candy bag - for the both of them.
Avery had a couple candy bars in her hand that we assumed she would just look at and play with the wrapper. 5 minutes later, Jamie noticed that the WHOLE THING was in her mouth, wrapper and all. With the saliva and heat, etc, the chocolate was melting and oozing out through the wrapper - mmmmm, good. Had to fish the wrapper out of Avery's mouth, much to her disappointment...
