Witches, spiders, pumpkins....spooky

Gabe is at such a fun age!! He'll be 18 months on the 11th. He is talking like crazy and has just started putting three words together. Some of his most common are... "no thank you" and "go away Eli" He speaks very clearly and it's fun to ask him to say anything and he can!! When I started pulling out the Halloween decorations this year Gabe started to get very concerned. I took him to Target awhile back and was showing him all of the talking pumpkins and goblins for sale and he was so nervous. I didn't think he'd get the whole spooky thing but he definitely does!! We have this childrens Halloween pop up book that he is terrified of... I opened it a few times and he would cover his ears (???) and run away. He is also pretty nervous about our large Halloween spider decorations and the skeleton. The first few days he'd say "move guy" because he wanted me to put it away! Now he likes him and calls him "telton." He carries him all around the house, even giving him rides in the doll stroller!! I also have this giant book of witches spells and potions. When you open the cover there is just a big spot to put candy in but each time it opens some creepy witch says several phrases and laughs... Gabe figured out there was candy inside so he always wanted to open the book for a piece but was torn because he was so scared of the "witch inside!" Anyway it was pretty funny to see him so interested in Halloween stuff but hesitant at the same time... He keeps us laughing all the time and is pretty much completely adored around here!! It seems like every time I finally remember to video him I just can't get the perfect performance. But here is a little piece of some of his cute Halloween words. of course he wouldn't say Happy Halloween like he usually does and there is no evidence of his cute "trick a treat" but it will have to do! My favorite is his impression of what a witch says....
( don't forget to pause my music player so that you can hear his cute sounds!)
