Now that we have Braden...oh my heart just melted today! He doesn't (obviously) 100% understand what Halloween is all about, but he was so excited to put on his Cookie Monster costume. He was even saying "Cookie Braden" today and he definitely knows what a cookie is! If I chose his costume based on what he likes most, he would be Thomas, of course, and he would make an adorable Bob too...but mama's choice was Cookie Monster because it suits his personality so much!
And with some help from Daddy we got some smirks and almost smiles!!
NOM NOM NOM!!!
Here's a little video of right before we were ready to go out:
So Jay wasn't feeling that great so he decided to stay home and hand out the candy and cookies that I made, so I got to take the little dude around to the neighbors. I cannot stress enough how much being a rural family ROCKS at Halloween! We get to go see our family & neighbors, get homemade treats, full sized chocolate bars and chips! Plus on the chilly years we get to stay in the car or in the houses the majority of the time! We ran into Lukey at our 2nd last house!

Then as a treat, we let Braden stay up...and have a treat! Plus we want to keep him up late all week to train him for daylight savings time!
Aren't his "batjamas" adorable?
And another video of the craziness that ensued post trick or treating!So I kind of did a reverse trick or treat for the neighbours. I really wanted to bring a treat related to his costume, and I've been wanting to make these ever since I saw a picture them! I made Cookie Monster Cupcakes!!
I apologize for the yucky pictures...Speedlite is needed I tells ya! I'm happy with the way they turned out and the neighbours loved them!!Then I also made some Halloween cupcakes for Serena's 6th birthday and also some Halloween sugar cookies! :)
LOVE that he was Cookie Monster!! J went as Elmo this year!! P.s the Cookie Monster Cupcakes are a gret idea!!
