Brody's 1st Halloween Party

Since Brody had school on Wednesday, his class received some special treats and could wear their costumes as long as they weren't too cumbersome making diaper changing a bigger challenge.  Mommy took Brody to school wearing his adorable pirate costume that was also his brother's costume at the same age.  I had already arranged to come back to help give his class their Halloween treats and take pictures.  When I arrived at 11:30, the class was still outside enjoying a nice Fall day on the playground.  Brody was pushing a little truck around so I snuck up to take a picture before he could see me.  I knew that once he saw me, it might start a little tantrum.  His teacher put him into the swing, and I snuck up behind and started pushing him and talking to him.  He didn't turn around immediately but had a big smile on his face.  He is used to only hearing my voice when he listens to me on the phone so I guess he still wasn't aware I was there.  He finally turned around and saw me.  When it was time for the class to line up and go back inside for lunch, the trouble began.  He was not happy that Mommy wasn't going to pick him up and carry him, and I guess he thought Mommy might leave without him again.  Once inside, he wouldn't let Mommy sit beside him at the table so she had to sneak out of the room.  I guess he is still at that stage where once I am out of his sight, he forgets to be worried.  He calmed down so I snuck my head in to watch him eat and had to stay hidden so that he would eat his lunch.  I snuck back into the room, and he was finally okay with me being there while he ate his Halloween treats and listened to his teacher read a "spooky" story.  I was also there to photograph the other kids from his class too so I'm glad he finally let me in.

  2. Nothing like a pirate having a temper tantrum. Captain Hook could learn a thing or 2 from Brody. Ha ha!
