Ready for Halloween

Well, our little pumpkin-head seems to not notice that our calendar has August written on it rather than October. His most recent finding has been the Halloween books on his bookshelf. He wants to read them (and there ARE more than one!) EVERY day, and LOVES the pumpkins/jack-o-lanterns in particular. Some of you know of his fascination for specific objects (e.g. pinecones, trash cans, sprinkler heads, flags to name a few)...well, add pumpkins to the list. I'm eagerly anticipating Sept/Oct, when I can justify having the house decorated for Fall, and we'll start to see pumpkins at other houses. I can already hear the, "WHA IZ ZAAAAAAAAAAT?!!!!!!!" shriek as we walk around the block/park/neighborhood and he spots the pumpkins everywhere! :) Here we come Halloween!
