Breakfast with Junior

This morning I had the distinct privilege of sharing a bowl of Cheerios with my old pal Dale Earnhardt Jr. Gotcha–it's Garrett in costume (courtesy of my co-worker Mark who's son Nicholas was the first Junior). Today is Garrett's first Halloween and I'm not sure if he understood what he was in for. I told him this morning he had two school parties to go to and that he could dress up for it. We talked about the candy (that he definitely understood). He held up all 10 fingers and said, "lotsa candy—three candies." We need to work on his counting skills. All I know is, we're going to have one sugar-crazy kid bouncing off the walls tonight. He's also nursing a cold, which makes it really gross when he wipes his nose on his costume. Yucky. But I can't wait for trick or treating tonight. (Not sure how we're going to handle it as I'm still figuring out how to do things with one arm.) But we'll manage somehow, because, after all, it's Halloween (and for once the weather is cooperating here in MN). No Halloween blizzards this year, thankfully.

Happy Halloween to all little goblins out there.

Cody going as himself.
