Peanut,
So, to say your Dad and I are newbies at this parenting stuff is putting it lightly. Sometimes it's glaringly obvious you are our first child. Like this Halloween, your second. We had the brilliant idea of dressing you up and parading you all over town to see people....we didn't think about the fact that your costume (a Rooster!) didn't work in your car-seat, we ended up having to put you in and out of your costume over and over. Oh did I mention you don't like your car-seat right now? Hot mess.
You did great at the first house, Dad's co-worker and ok at the second which was my boss' home. But after driving clear across town and back to Aunt E's house you were totally over it. And understandably too. We spent a good 20 or so minutes there just letting you run around and play (you liked the cat and a stuffed spider Auntie had). But at 7:40p (10 mins after your regular bed time) you melted down and were totally done. We loaded you up once more and headed home.
The next day I let you enjoy your little bag of m&m's and you happily carried around a mini Almond Joy (where did that go anyway, ut oh!)
Needless to say next year we will be staying in our own neighborhood and letting people come to you! Next year you are going to get to enjoy it lots and lots like you should! Sorry about this year peanut! (Side note; for some reason I've been calling you peanut a lot lately.....even shortening it to Pea and you respond to me! Yikes, I should probably get better at calling you Liam!)
Much Love,
Momma
