Meska . . . Mooska . . . Mickey Mouse!

  For Halloween this year Alex got to be Mickey Mouse!  I engineered a costume that worked pretty well.  Alex had practiced trick-or-treating at school and definitely got the hang of it.  He loved getting candy!  He didn't understand that he couldn't go into the neighbor's house for a visit and as sad when we pulled him away from each door. One big achievement was that Alex started WALKING up the stairs on his own!  It was a year ago that he took his first steps in a pumpkin costume and this year he took his first steps up the stairs.  Halloween is an exciting holiday for Alex . . . who knows what he'll do next year. :-)
