Halloween 2012

This year is Marcus' first taste of halloween.  Last year was supposed to be but we ended up spending part of the holidays in Asian Hospital.

Sick little dude and the Plants vs Zombies team of nurses at AHMD

For this year, I insisted (Jax is such a grinch on practially all forms of celebration!) that we finally get little dude a costume.  I'm so glad we did because Marcus was able to use it in two different occassions.

I've asked a few officemates to guess what we got for our little boy, with the only clue being "It's so predictable."  Guess how many of them guessed it right?  Almost 100%! Haha!  Marcus went as (whatelse?!) a racer dude.

Here's at the halloween event in his school.  Party before sem break!!!

The bad thing about this costume is that he kept on trying to remove the lock at the collar.  Must be itchy.

 

The Lightning McQueen costume came with a "helmet".

 

With some of his classmates.  He's obviously the youngest at his school.

 

Watching halloween-themed cartoons.

 And here's when we went trick-or-treating in our village...

See how he wants to remove the velcro in the collar?

Not scared at all!

Complete with his kart!  The dad wouldn't want him to wear the "helmet" anymore. 
The cap looked more real and champion-ish (whatever!), according to him.

We went around with Marcus on his kart.  Jax made "reinforcements" though for when the little dude gets tired of pedalling (which he eventually did).  I, on the other hand, was driving the car in case they BOTH get exhausted and needed to jump in to go home.  Hihi.

Love how the neighborhood really prepared for this.

With all the walking, part of me wished (again) little dude had friends to do this with.  The other part of me though was just happy to be the first people he gets to experiences these things with.  In a few more years, he probably wouldn't want to go anywhere with me anymore *dreading that day!* so might as well enjoy this stage.  Gosh, baby, please don't grow up so fast...
