We had a froggy good time!


For Halloween, Gunnar and I went to a 3 ward church Trunk or Treat. We had so much fun and these things are perfect for toddlers. Not a lot of walking and a lot of socialization with others. My mom went and passed out their candy as well as ours. People made me laugh. They see a toddler coming and assumed that all he could eat was tootsie rolls, suckers and smarties. So Gunnar came back with a lot of those. What happened to the chocolate candy bars?! He did get play-doh and stickers which was really great. People are just attracted to this kid. Others would ask where he was when they went by my moms car or would ooh and ahh at him when we went by. He is such a people magnet. He did not really fully understand what was happening and had such a serious face on the entire time. The one thing that he did figure out was the fact that you were to take the candy from someones hand and then stick it in your bag. He got really good at that, but then again people assumed he could not do that and would stick it in there for him. He looked at them with confusion as to why he couldn't do it himself.

He loved his costume. The first time he saw himself in the mirror was the greatest. He couldn't believe what he turned into. He also loves the little amphibious hands that he had. They were pretty funny looking. He was just the cutest froggy ever!

Grandma (my mom) dressed up for work that day so she wore the costume at the Trunk or Treat too.




It would take Gunnar about 5 minutes to pick up anything with his hands inside the costume. So it was amazing that he could hang upside down with the ball still in his hands.

The last picture was taken at our Mommy and Me halloween party last Friday. I just thought that this picture was so cute.
