Pumpkin Carving and Halloween!

This is a two part posts - the first of our pumpkin carving a few weeks back.  It was the first time Micah's been able to fully participate in the process, and it was definitely a fun Daddy-son moment!  Christian had printed off 2-3 options, and Micah chose Mickey, of course :)

I love his interest here...

and his face here, trying to process what's coming out of the pumpkin :)

Our little clean freak was not too sure of the pumpkin guts!

I love his face here - purely in awe in looking at the full face! 

Even Reid was able to get in on the fun!

Mickey!!

Halloween came on our week of sick - and to top it off, it was a dreary, rainy day.  I honestly didn't think that we were going to be able to go out at all, but around 5pm, the rain let up for a little bit and thankfully Grandpa was willing to take Micah out.  We hurried through dinner, got dressed and decided to just go around our neighborhood.  Unfortunately by the time we went out it was raining again, but that didn't phase the pair.  They were excited to go out, and I was grateful!

Micah, the chef!

Happy Grandpa and grandson.

Poor Reidees that night.  He did not make it out :(

Micah (with Reid and Grandma) checking out his candy stash!

Skittles!

Grandpa and Micah - looking at Daddy on the phone as we were face timing so he could be a part of the experience as well!

I love the below pictures, Grandpa trying to explain something to Christian while Micah is engrossed with his candy.

Reid just loved dumping the candy on the ground :)

An out of the ordinary Halloween experience, but a memorable one nonetheless.  Thanks again Grandpa for your willingness to take Micah trick-or-treating!  No doubt he loved it!!
