The most awesomest cookie cake.



This is the cookie cake that makes Mrs. Fields cry in a dark corner. Tania baked it for Craig's birthday. I am still eating it. It represents the good in all things considered cookie and cake. Bask in its awesomeness!

Trick or Treat! Now gimme your candy.....

There is nothing more entertaining than a two-year-old trick or treating for the first time. The whole time I was wondering what was going through Craig's brain: "Hmmm...it seems every house has an excess of candy and they want me to take as much as I can. Score!" (Craig has a great vocab apparently)

Our day started....with my car getting worked on. So we took a trip to the mall. Since it was a long day, I dressed the kids up and put Craig in the Gator costume to start.



Jeremy in his stroller. He was a pumpkin. I guess technically a jack-o-lantern.



Here is Craig as a Giraffe. I think the antler nubs make the costume.



Here I am with Craig. Tania wore a football jersey a student gave her. I went as a soccer player, which looks nothing like what I wear on Saturdays.



Our strategy for trick or treating was to have Craig 1) walk on his own 2) Ring the doorbell 3) Say please 4) Accept candy and move on. Well, he did great walking. And ringing the doorbell.



As for the saying please and getting candy.....well the video will speak for itself.



I'm not sure what Craig was planning on doing inside the house. Also, if there were a few kids at a house Craig would just walk up to the bowl and help himself! It was awesome, something his parents and grandparents will not forget.
