Getting Ready for Halloween and the Paci Fairy

Two weeks ago Jackson had a visit from the Paci Fairy. For those of you who don't know who the Paci Fairy is, she is a magical creature who comes to visit children when they are ready to give their pacifiers to newborn babies. She always comes at night and leaves a present. One night, we helped Jackson put all of his pacifiers in a big box and when morning came, the Paci Fairy had left him a baby doll, his beloved "B". Here is a picture of Jackson reading to "B".

Yes, I let my son play with dolls.


Here is a picture of Jackson in his Tigger costume at the Zoo this past Sunday. They have a big "Howl-o-ween" Event for the two weekends before Halloween. We rode on a hayride, went on Trick or Treat trail, played some games, ate some donuts and cider, and of course visited the animals, who had the best costumes of all!

Here is Jackson riding the train at the zoo in the dark.

Be honest: who is cuter---Jackson or the tiger behind him? You know my vote!

Daddy likes to drink wine with dinner at home sometimes. Guess who insisted on having wine with dinner also. Before you call the authorities, you should know that it is only iced tea in the wine glass. It sufficiently satisfied the two-year-old, and the mommy.
