Halloween!

Not rrrreeeaaalllll happy about it, but he is still adorable!!!!
Well, here he is in all his cuteness! If you hadn't guessed it already, Fletcher was a monkey for Halloween. It was pretty chilly on Halloween night so I was kind of pleased we had picked this one as it kept him nice and toasty. It's a cute outfit, its got opposable thumbs on his booties and everything! Here he is showing off one of his new tricks too! He can stand, and does, and will give a grand fuss if he plops down or (heaven help you) if you move him!
Monkey, meet monkey!
*side note, this is a really cute background for your computer! Give it a shot!*


Hehehe, I love this picture :0) This was a very squeezable monkey!
I didn't get around to carving Fletchers pumpkin till just before it got dark, so he was nice and fresh! I tried to incorporate all the nubby bumps of the pumpkin in my design and I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out...Fletcher seemed to like him too, also liked sticking his fingers in the vent holes in the back so he kept Aunt Teresa and I busy during this little photo shoot.
Here is a night shot, I like happy pumpkins!

I took him out for a little bit of trick or treating, nothing fancy, just 3 or 4 houses. I was excited but Fletcher was not all that amused, until we actually started seeing other kids and walking up to peoples doors. He even picked out his own candy! My back muscles were screaming by the time we got back, that is one heavy monkey!
While I was out, I spied a gaggle of 10 year old boys and dropped a hint that the white house across the yard from where we were was mine and that I had bought full sized candy bars. They all screamed, 'NO WAY!' and tore off through the yard to claim their prizes. I was happy to find them, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten any trick or treaters!
It was a good time, though next year I am really looking forward to Fletcher walking! Seriously!
