Memories Of Halloweens Past And Present
Chrissy recently found some time to take some Halloween photos of Aiden and Gavin. Yes, Halloween was two weeks ago, but it’s hard to find time for these things when you’ve got two kids! She could have easily blown it off, but Halloween photos are an important family tradition in our house. We’ve got fabric backdrops and props and everything!

An unintended part of this tradition has been the choice of clothing. Gavin gets all of Aiden’s baby clothes, which have been in storage for two years, including the Halloween-themed clothes. So what we end up with is a photo of Gavin in the same clothes and almost the same pose as the one that was taken of Aiden two Halloweens ago.

This brings us an interesting opportunity to compare and contrast our two boys. When they were only a few months old, they looked pretty much the same. Gavin has more hair, and Aiden was almost a month younger at his first Halloween, but they still look remarkably alike. Unfortunately, Gavin didn’t get as many outfits or backdrops as Aiden did, but remember, Chrissy has two kids to manage now!

But then there are also the differences between then and now! Although Aiden still has the ceramic pumpkin that sports his name across the front, that is where the similarities end! He’s gotten to be such a big boy over the last two years. We’ll have to see what memories next Halloween brings us!
