Batman Forever!

These are not the best pictures, but I thought I'd share some from our church's annual Fall Festival. Jackson wore a Batman costume and HE LOVED HIMSELF. He really had no idea what he was, but he was completely energized by his built-in muscles, cape, and mask.

Right before the fun began.

One of the highlights of Batman's night was a baby pool filled with balls. He worked himself into a frenzy. Look at his red face.


As I ironed my son's costume that evening, I realized I should have dressed as Alfred. But that would have been quite a stretch for Pregnant Girl.


Upon seeing the two firetrucks, one with a giant ladder reaching into the sky, I asked Jackson if this was the happiest day of his life. He said yes.


My, how things change! Look at my child's face. Sheer terror. Someone blasted the other fire truck's horn when we were standing right by it. It was L-O-U-D.


Don't tell Jackson that the Batmobile isn't an inflatable red car.


Batman's smooth exit from the Batmobile.


What can Batman conquer next?



Here are some pics from Fall Festivals Past, AKA "the years when mommy got to dress Jackson however she wanted." We are currently in the superhero-for-boys/Disney- princess-for-girls years of toddlerhood.

The first year Jackson was a frog.


Last year Jackson was a golfer. I could have eaten him up with a spoon.


Next year I'll have another little one to dress!
