So yesterday was Halloween and Dylan was all excited about going trick-or-treating. He knew exactly what to do: knock on the door and say trick-or-treat. We told him that after he got the candy/treat he had to say thank you. Well, instead Dylan would get the candy and ask, "what's this?". And it wasn't just the first few houses, it was every single time he got something (unless it was M&Ms which he recognizes). After awhile we told him to say thank you and then come down to me or Dave (whomever was down at the sidewalk) and ask us what it was. He said, "okay". But of course he never did. He continued to say "what's this?" Dave or I would answer him and then he would say thank you.
Another funny note about the evening was toward the end we went to a house and the owner put the bowl out for them to pick something. There was a bunch of candy in the bowl and some juice boxes. Dylan said, "ooooh, a juice box, yay!" and grabbed a juice box. As we were walking away I reminded him that he can't have juice. He said, "I know unless I am low". Dave and I chuckled and told him that he was correct and he could have some when he was low.
All in all it was a fun night and they both got to sample a treat or two while we were out and about.

i gotta tell ya dylan really is handling this whole diabetes thing like a trooper. it's like he told grandpa "no big deal." i mean there are probably so many other kids out there his age that are the complete opposite & give their parents a hard time about only being able to drink the juice when he's low. i am thoroughly impressed with him and i LOVE how he was asking "what's this?"
by the way, i LOVE the pic of them holding hands looking out the door. are they waiting for uncle kevin, aunt tracy, kaeden & quinton to visit? :-)
