Halloween & Stuff

As Halloween quickly approached, I realized my intentions (to make Kasen a Lego MiniFigure costume) were good, but not feasible.  So, I asked him what else he'd like to be.

It took him no time to answer - DARTH VADER!  I doubted there would be a costume in his size, but apparently I don't know costumes well.  ha!  So, it was decided, he would be Darth Vader:

 Life before Halloween continued on, as chaotic & fun as usual.  One afternoon I headed out to the grocery store & passed these 2 cute guys on my way:

Kasen is REALLY into games.  Especially ones that aren't your typical board game variety.  Right now, his favorite is Gassy Gus.  We play it A LOT. 

 The weather started to get cooler (briefly), so I had to get out & get Kasen pants that were long enough.  Of course, the week following this shopping trip he had a growth spurt & some of those brand new pants are already too short.  sigh

I was amazed by how well behaved he was on our shopping trip, so I told him he could pick out a toy.  Instead, he asked for another costume (marked waaaay down!).  How could I say no?  

 He ended up going to school as Spiderman Halloween morning & then going Trick or Treating as Darth Vader.  He loved getting to dress up twice!

Getting a picture of him before TorTing proved near impossible.  This is the best I got.

Time is flying by so fast that I feel like I can't keep up with anything!!  It's already almost Christmas, but I swear this year just started!  Slow down already!
