My 5 year old was so excited about going trick or treating for the first time this year, that the day after Halloween he felt the need to spread out most of the candy on floor of the kitchen / dining area so he could look at it! lol! He eventually took all the candy we had and grouped them into piles: some with the same type of candy and others to separate out the candy he didn’t like! (There were too many piles of them to take pictures of them all.)
This is the candy that he got when he went trick or treating. The pumpkin was full!
This is some of the candy we bought to give out. We had some kids come, but not nearly as many as I thought we would.
The candy on the left is more of the candy we bought and the candy on the right is the candy he got during the Halloween egg hunt hosted by our apartment complex.
We have so much candy it will probably last until next Halloween!
This is a picture of my little guy in his Halloween costume: Optimus Prime (character from the Transformer movies).
This post is liked to Wordless Wednesday (even thought the post wasn’t exactly wordless!).

Thank you! Thing is, now I have to try and keep my hands out of the candy myself! lol!
Oh!! We have way to much candy too! I am about to start slowing throwing it in the trash! lol! I hear it talking to me…”eat me. eat me!” lol!

LoL! How come we don’t hear “eat me, eat me” when it comes to broccoli?!
I hate to waste, but I will be throwing away a lot of the candy, as well.
We didn’t get TOO much since we had a limited trick or treating time. And lucky for us the 3 year old forgot all about her stach 🙂

I was hoping Andrew would forget about his candy, but no such luck. For the last two days all I’ve heard is: “Can I have candy now? or “Is it time for candy yet?” lol!
Oh they’re like little elephants…they NEVER forget 🙂

That’s a great idea! I think I will do that. Thanks for the suggestion. 🙂
I love the non-traditional green pumpkin and that he is so orderly. Save the Twix for me!

Thanks! Happy WW to you, too. 🙂
Love the little Snickers/3 Musketeers.. they are little candy niblets – not counting at all like actually eating a candy bar right? 🙂 That’s what they tell me when they call out to me at least!
Yep! That means that the little niblet candy has NO calories! LOL!
Adorable in his costume 🙂 Nice haul on the candy!
