Minnie and Max

Minnie Kira and Fireman Max went treat seeking at the Town Center this afternoon.  Last year this event was the week before Halloween; Kira was not even born yet.  This year Kira got to join in the fun and try candy for the first time. Her favorite (aka: the only type she was offered) candy are lollipops.  

Then (one less child) and now (twice as much candy!!!!)

Kira was just three days old and so tiny last Halloween.  She is so much bigger now, but she will always be a little pumpkin.




Best shot of brother and sister! 

Max was in a hurry to get himself trapped in the landscaping.  Mission completion! (As his Little Einsteins would say)


Kira took a nap after 'treating' and when she woke up she was sitting up!  She was less then thrilled about this milestone, or perhaps she was experiencing lollipop withdrawal.

Halloween trick-or-treat crew for life!  Max wore the complete fireman ensemble earlier, but for the evening 'treat' session he opted for a more casual look.  It also included a Target bag in lieu of a pumpkin, but that was short lived.  Thank goodness.

Hi five, doc!

Kira could not give up her lollipop to get a treat at the next house.  

...nor could she give it up for dinner.  

The highlight of Max's day was handing out treats.  He had never done that before and he was giddy with excitement every time he had the chance to dole out candy for trick-or-treaters.  At one point he suggested giving them shorts and shirts instead of candy.  He certainly has enough to spare, so it was not the worst idea.  The treat seekers might not have loved it, so we stuck to candy.
