Happy Halloween!

Hey Chunky Monkey! Turn around!
It's Rock! The cutest monkey this side of the Mississippi (apparently his Cousin Caleb also was a monkey for Halloween so obviously, he's the cutest monkey on that side of the Mississippi)! It is fitting that this ended up being Rock's costume because he has been known to eat 4+ bananas in one day.
We went to my parents neighborhood to trick-or-treat because it was the last night that Cousin Addy, Aunt Bethany and Uncle Kelly were going to be in town.
The monkey hangs out with his cousin Addy. Hard to believe Rock was wearing that exact same outfit this time last year.
At this point, the monkey was done with taking pictures. Time to trick-or-treat!
This is his punk face. Also known as his CAN WE PLEASE GO TRICK OR TREATING AND STOP TAKING ALL THESE PICTURES face.
We set off with stroller knowing that an activity that starts that close to Rock's bedtime is going to leave him too tired to walk. Of course he wanted to push the stroller rather than ride in it.
Aunt Susanna came home from work just in time to join the fun. Rock did a good job making noises like a monkey or saying "Trch" when we asked him to say trick-or-treat, and he always signed "thank you" for his candy. Also, he quickly learned that it's smart to take more than one piece of candy out of a bowl. Good work son.

I LOVE it! You have such excellent taste in Halloween costumes. ;)

Way to go, Rock, for figuring out how to grab a handful of candy.

I only wish we could have gotten a picture of them in their costumes together.
