Halloween



Since I didn't get a chance before now I thought I would get the Halloween pictures up!

After the LARGE task of getting everyone dressed and maybe taking a picture (JD took one and he would not have taking one with his sister!) We were off on our great adventure! Of course living in a large apartment community you have to go into a neighborhood with houses, luckily for us that is just around the street from us! So we loaded up the stroller with sister and headed out!!


This was Carleen's first Halloween so there wasn't to much for her to do but still she was dressed up in a Skeleton outfit that glowed in the dark! She was so stinkin cute!



This is JD's 3rd Halloween and he was to little to do to much other than get pushed around in a stroller and get sympathy candy last year... so this year was fun because we taught him how to say Trick or Treat and he walked around all on his own! Dressed up like a Pirate (thanks to Papa and Grandma Camacho) he was sometimes Jake (from Jake and the Neverland Pirates) or Capetian hook!


He walked from door to door from 5:00pm to about 8:30pm and by the end of the evening he was no longer saying Tick or Treat but instead it was Simply "Treat" which everyone seemed to this was SOOO CUTE!


JD also learned the word "Spooky" and the more decorated houses he would look at the stroller, put up his hand and say "No sister too spooo-key!" At the end of the night he had made out with a TON of candy (in which mom and dad had to take their "Tax" out of once he went to bed) It took quite a few days to convince JD that we couldn't knock on doors and get treats, he is over that now!

Butterflies and Cars

After being at our apartment for a full year we finally decided to decorate the kids room, that way JD could understand the difference between his side of the room and sisters side.

We got Decals for the walls (since we live in an apartment and painting the walls is a pain) Carleen got Butterflies and Flowers and JD got a cars scene. JD was VERY excited to see sisters butterflies and his cars!(Carleen's Butterflies and Flowers on the wall above her crib)


(JD's Car Scene located right above his Car bed)


Of course JD has the most awesome car bed with all of his favorite bedtime things! This Dino which is WAY to big to really be on his bed but he always puts it there before bed (thanks to Mike Taylor for Dino) Then there is his doggy "Russ", JD has really been wanting a dog but we cant have one since my property is Not pet Friendly, so JD has been treating his stuffed animal like a real dog, tells him to sit and everything! There is an elephant Pillow which is cousin Annie gave him when he was REALLY little and for whatever reason he LOVES it! The Lightening McQueen Pillow from Papa and Grandma Camacho and last but certainly not least his Blanket (aka Gee) JD takes this thing with him EVERYWHERE!!
