The Kid Finally Pays Off

He went to work with us today, ready to charm the world in his Halloween tiger suit. Wherever he went, he turned heads and left smiles in his wake.









We took him to a Halloween costume contest at the University library. A couple of students asked Claire if they could have their picture taken next to him. He's like a rock star. This is what it must be like to walk around with Brad Pitt.



When it was time to judge the "kids under 12" costumes, he was asleep. But he still won, beating out a bunch of 5- and 6-year-olds. Who were awake. He was in a whole different league of cuteness. He won a set of coffee thermos bottles for Mommy and Daddy, in shiny designer colors with a handsome carrying case (see below). Booyah! What other free crap can we win with this kid?
