Halloween was unseasonably warm this year. We spent some time outside with Ian in his Halloween PJs. I tried to get some cute pictures of him with our pumpkin, but he just wanted to climb mommy's leg.
And I haven't had the time to post a picture of Ian in his cute dinosaur Halloween costume. He was absolutely adorable and had no problems wearing his costume for hours! He even went trick or treating with daddy to help him adjust to the new daylight savings time.
