Happy Boo Day - Delayed
Okay, so I'm a bit behind with blogging, but wanted to make sure I blogged about the boys on Halloween. This was Max's first one and Jed's second. We decided that we would just stay around home this year instead of driving all over town to see both sets of grandparents like last year. So, most of the grandparents made it over to our house to see the kids. Steve's parents actually took Jed around for a little bit while I fed Max. Then, after we all had dinner, Steve and I took the boys back out for a little more fun. I was a little disappointed that there weren't more kids out, but apparently they all go across the street to the more expensive neighborhood where they give out whole candy bars. Jed still had a great time.
He got the hang of it pretty early on, asking for "num nums" before we would even get to the door (trick-or-treat was a bit of a challenge for him to say). Then, he would get really excited if they let him choose his candy, sometimes grabbing a whole handful. People were really generous, though, because of the low turnout of kids. Jed made a killing in candy. Some of the houses gave Max some candy, too. He was asleep for most of our time out. Steve was quite the trooper carrying him the hold time. We decided it was more fun to do that than to bring the stroller. Once we got home, the boys got in their cute little matching pj's and, of course, we had to take more photos.
And, wouldn't you know, they both slept super well. Max didn't wake up for a feeding until 2am (which is better than the usual 11pm) and Jed slept in until almost 9am (which is better than 7am). Sleeping in was sweet! Even if it meant 3 hours of sleep in a row instead of 2. Gotta love nursing! Hopefully I can get more sleep for this next big weekend.
