a pirate and his parrot....

the parrot is a little big for his shoulder so he keeps him in the porthole, LOL.

as you can assume, we took the boys to the park today to get pictures of them in their halloween costumes. other than the fact that it was 78 degrees out, it was perfect! poor pooks was sweating by the end so i've re-done his costume to be attached to a long-sleeve onesie instead of a sweatshirt. other than that, it went great! i took about 100 pictures and probably 25 of those turned out good/cute. i'm going to try my hardest to get one tomorrow of both of them looking AT the camera but here are the rest from today:

pooks the parrot

bubba the pirate

together but not happily....

getting closer....

my favorite picture of bubba--possibly ever!

not very good quality, but at least you can see pooks' whole costume

a happy pirate

pooks trying to get on board (is this the cutest thing or what?!)

well, thats all for now. i took a benadryl for my stuffiness and its making me pretty sleepy. BED TIME! woohoo!
