Family Photos and Halloween

We've had quite a week here in Denver. Wednesday and Thursday it snowed non-stop, leaving us with about 18 inches of snow. Friday and Saturday have been filled with Halloween activities. Everybody is exhausted, but we've had a great week.

Jessa asked Eli if he wanted to hold Amos. He said yes, and this lasted about 3/4 of a second, and then he started saying "no thank you." Alas. Someday.
Mama, Eli, and Amos had some quality time on the bed. Notice the head control from Amos.
Eli is learning to have "paci-free time," but he's now very concerned that Amos have his pacifier at all times. Here, he's trying to put it in his mouth.
Still working on it.
Got it!
Amos was just hanging out there for a good long while.
This is Eli's "they made me get all bundled up and sit in the stroller while we trudge through the snow to lunch" face.
This afternoon, Amos fell asleep with his arms sticking out. We think it was some sort of Halloween zombie/mummy tribute.
Another angle.
This morning Jessa took the kids to the Children's Museum for some early trick-or-treating. Isn't that the coolest spider you ever saw?

Tonight we gathered with some other toddlers and parents to go trick-or-treating. The kids were gathering on the front stoop to take pictures, and they spontaneously decided to hold hands.
The lineup.

This was actually the least snowy Halloween in several years. Even with the half a foot or so of unmelted snow on the ground.
Quintessential Colorado Halloween shot: snow on the ground, awesome sunset.
Eli and Maya after stopping at a door.
Eli was definitely the slowest kid, since he kept getting distracted by snow, rocks, pumpkins, bushes, and basically everything else.
Eli got to have a "yoyypop" (lollipop) for all his troubles. The rest of his haul was quickly spirited away out of sight to be doled out slowly over a long, long period of time.
Amos was very polite through the whole ordeal. He LOVES this chair. He sat in it for probably an hour total throughout the night, wide awake, just swinging away.

We hope you all had a great Halloween. We know we did!
