Halloween Bubble Bath


I realized the other day that it has been a long while since I have posted!  Sorry about that!  Things are going on around here and we are busy.  Laik is doing great! The toes are healed and Laik is wearing shoes much more now! :o) He is babbling A LOT!  Such a great noise to my ears, he often uses  babababa, mamamama!, hahahaha, and an occasional daadaadaadaa!!  He has finally started rolling more and he is eating more and more table foods (smashed) but we are still working on self feeding!  Things are constantly improving and that makes me oh-so-very-happy!  And we are looking to begin attending Siskin's Childrens Institute at least 2 days a week.  (You prayer warriors out there:  add that to your list, please!)  

But what is going on today!  It's Halloween!  Todd and I knew that neither of us was capable of carrying Laik all over the neighborhood to trick-or-treat, so I used the Radio Flyer as our very own bubble bath tub!  A little foam board and some balloons, plus a rubber duck, a bath tray, Laik's robe, and shower cap and WHA-LA....we had a Halloween costume that was going to be easy on the back!

 And we are off to the first house we go!
 He wasn't too sure of the shower cap, but he was a trooper.  I did have to adjust it numerous times to keep him happy.  And we had to have a few toys too!
 I'm not sure that it gets much cuter than this baby!  I couldn't stop smiling when I looked at him!
 About half way through our planned route, Laik fell asleep.
  OR did Addie the Witch cast a spell on him?????  
 It was a fun night for all, but Laik knew it was past his bedtime!
 Pulling in to finish our evening of Trick-or-Treating~
 Are we back yet?  I think I see him sneaking a peak.....he knew a bottle was at the end of the trail!
Needless to say, once again, we had a great Halloween.  Last year, Laik was a Bunch of Grapes.  This year, he had his very own Bubble Bath on Wheels.  Who knows what our next Halloween costume will be?!?!?!?  But what I do know, Halloween is more fun as an adult parent than it ever was as a kid!  I hope your night was full of TREATS too!  

Happy Halloween!...Now, there's a bubble bath waiting....
