Halloweenie

Carter's first Halloween was celebrated yesterday, and consisted of a borrowed monkey costume, which was so cute -it was just a little big, and trick-or-treating at my work (its a big deal at ICCU, we get at least a 100 kids and their bags are filled to the brim when they leave). We brought our little buddy Simon (aka Max) along so he could collect all the candy Carter couldn't.

Not much Halloween activity for Carter boy today. Ya know, since he is only 6 1/2 months old and all. Except for me, Mom, ran a Halloween Spooktacular 5K fun run this morning. It was very hilly (dang Idaho mountains), and the first "organized" run I've participated in since 2008. It was good to be back, timing myself, running with someone better than me, and pushing myself to never stop running (don't want to ever walk during a "run"). I actually did pretty good (for me). It was a run to support the Girls on the Run group. There were the cutest LITTLE (like ages 7+) girls there, and some of them were so fast and kicked my trash. They were amazing. Girls on the Run is an AWESOME group. We've had a fun Friday and Saturday so far! : ) And now I get to sleep an extra hour! Yeah right, I bet Carter doesn't know how to fall back. He's a good sleeper though so I guess we'll see.
