O.K. so this post is a little late since Halloween is officially gone and over with, but oh well I guess I'm a little slow on the photo downloading! Oliver was Baby Elvis this year thanks to last years b-day gift from Uncle Greg and Aunt Kris Tina! He was a hit and did a mean lip curl! He didn't actually want to put the costume on until I informed him that if he did he would then get CANDY from people. Then there was no stopping him. Oliver loves candy. Sigh. He sported his costume to the playgroup at the library and got some treats, to our ward party (at which he wouldn't talk to anyone and was acting shy until someone gave him some candy and then he was all smiles and chattering away), and then on Halloween night. I think you can see from the video that he was in total awe at the amount of candy that was in his possession at one time! Good thing he's still at the age when the candy can magically disappear overnight and then Mom and Dad can enjoy it. Anyway, Halloween was a hit in Oliver's book and even when the older kids we trick or treated with were tired and wanted to give up, Oliver was still going strong spurred by the fact that he could get even one more piece of candy in his bucket, not to mention the fact that Zack kept hoping for the butterfinger jackpot!

talk about a hunka hunka burnin' love. It finally fits (kind of).
Love the costume and how fascinated he was with the candy. Just looking at it and admiring its color. He didn't seem to enjoy spider rings as much as Rocky used to, that's for sure.
Oh my gosh, what an ADORABLE video! Oliver talks so wonderfully! And he knows his colors, numbers, wow! No wonder that lady hates you b/c your kid is smarter than her's. hahaha. I love it when he says "I love trick or treating" SO sweet! And the look he gives Zack when he throws the candy, hahaha!! And how he just stares at the candy, taking it all in.... Ah- I miss you guys so much!!!
PS- that top pic is my fave. That needs to go in your scrapbook!
Happy Birthday, Shannon!
That was a super cute video!! Oli does talk so well. Butterfinger is Andrew's favorite candy, too. We bought a bag to "give away" to trick-or-treaters. Hee hee. Yeah, we ate way too many!
So adorable! Oh yeah, happy birthday by the way! I love that you were always sooo much older than me :) (one month + a few)
