Spencer's Halloween Party

Spencer's preschool Halloween celebration was on Tuesday and he was dead set on dressing up as a tiger.  A friend brought the costume over the afternoon before as an extra, along with 2 others that were intended to be "backup" costumes for Owen and Oliver.  I had their "Three Little Pigs" costume that they wore to a couple parties over the weekend ready, but I think the boys wanted to show off their individual flare for the preschool performances and each pick something different.  Prior to the tiger suit arriving Spencer was supposed to be a fire fighter, but once he laid eyes on that tiger suit his mind was made up!  He pranced around in it all Monday evening practicing his roars.  When we showed up for the class performance, Spencer was so excited about seeing us (even though we had told him that we were coming for his party) that he stopped in his tracks and didn't do anything other than repeat "My Mommy and Daddy are here" instead of singing the songs!  Which was too bad because he probably would have been one of the best singers since he practices the songs with his brothers and knew them really well, but cute that he was excited to see us and declare to everyone that we were there.  Afterward, the class had some special treats and then went out to play on the playground.  It was pretty warm for late October (80 degrees) and I think Spencer was happy to take the puffy tiger off for a short while!
