Continuing on with Halloween…Robert and I and our little cheeseburger headed over to the neighborhood parade to see all the festivities. Last year, Maxwell was an itty bitty baby in my sling at the parade. This year, he was walking around and taking it all in! He really didn’t quite know where to look first. He then decided that if there was going to be a parade, he should be the Grand Marshall! So, he walked right out into the street in front of the first float and got things started!
Once all the floats started coming he was loving it!
Having a pixie stick for each hand didn’t hurt either! (even if he was just chewing on the plastic. they were wrapped!)
It was all big fun…
But Maxwell’s favorite parts were definitely this little red football that “he” caught (and ate)…
and seeing the fire truck that ended the parade. He went wild for that fire truck!
Even with all the candy around, Maxwell still chose his beloved Cheerios over everything else. He’s so healthy (and Momma didn’t unwrap any of the candy for him!) He was even nice enough to share his snack with Robert…
By the time the parade was over my cheeseburger was turning into a crab cake…
so we headed home to regroup and play with our toys from the parade like these super cheap, plastic fangs. Maxwell clearly wasn’t scared by them at all and was just trying to figure out how he was going to get the Cheerio into my mouth with these big teeth in his way…
Once the fangs were out, he got the Cheerio in!
I love my little cheeseburger.
I then tried to get a picture of Maxwell in front of our pumpkins like this one from last year…
But all I got was this…
Ha!! that picture just makes me laugh. He looks like some poor little chubby kid that’s eaten WAY too much Halloween candy!
This one’s a little better but not smiley, oh well…
After that, Maxwell’s future potential girlfriend, Chiles the Owl, came over and we tried to get a cute picture of the two babies…it didn’t go so well either.
We then headed out around the neighborhood to see all the trick-or-treaters…
and ended up at a friend’s house where Maxwell found this…
Score!!
It was a very happy Halloween!!
It’s neat that there’s still some neighborhood parades! Your friends must have been expecting a lot of trick or treaters!!! Maxwell didn’t need to go any further than their house! The picture in front of the pumpkins is funny – looks as if he ODed on sugar!
I did`t know cheeseburgers could be so cute!
Great to have a parade! So happy Maxwell had a good time!
Crab cake….I love it!
Stephanie, this is just cute overload. Babies in costume just kill me!
