ELECTION DAY: HISTORY IS MADE!

I'm telling George that it's up to us, the next generation, to decide the future of the country.



Voting, bro! It's democracy in action!



In fact...



I have an idea.

Georgie: you should sneak into the voting booth with mom and ROCK THE VOTE!



This is our chance to make history!



Ask not what your country can do for you, George...but what you can do for all the stroller-bound but politically fired-up kids out there!



And he DID IT! He got a Dunkin' Donuts coffee and the paper, and he waited in line with the thousands of other Upper West Siders, and he strolled on in.



My brother cast a vote, and became the youngest person to vote (illegally) in an American Election!



~YES WE CAN!~

THE DAY AFTER HALLOWEEN

Woah... I feel like I got hit by a candy truck.



Candy hangovers are HARSH!

GEORGE'S FIRST HALLOWEEN!

-7:47 AM
I just gave George his very first Halloween pumpkin! He doesn't quite know what to make of it...



OOOOOOOOH - What's that!? Stay back, George. I'll protect you from the Halloween ghosts and goblins.



-9:15 AM
George is in the swing of things now. He's playing his pumpkin like a drum!



Pre-Halloween cocktails! My morning milk tastes twice as good!



-11:32 AM
Here's George with our friend Kate.

George is confused. He thought he was supposed to wear a costume on Election Day and wear blue on Halloween.



Kate just told him it's costume time!



-5:17 PM
I'm just explaining to George that he's a little chili pepper, and I'm a big Cat in the Hat...



...which means I get to eat all the candy I want, and he can only have milk today...



...But maybe next year I'll let him have some of my candy. Not this year though.



-6:18 PM
Did you know lollipops came in so many colors and flavors? I didn't! I don't know what to lick first!



-6:20 PM
My sneaky Aunt Olga is trying to get me to wear my Hat!



I'm onto you, Tia!



Well, maybe for just a minute...



Grandy presents me with photo evidence that the Hat does not, in fact, look silly.



Read my lips: The Hat is not happening.



Look how ridiculous Dad looks! I'm not wearing that.



-8:25 PM
Wow...It's like an hour past my bedtime, and it's been a straight Halloween sugar diet since lunchtime...



...Dad says I'm on a Candy Bender...I'd agree to just about anything right now!



-9:15 PM
Sure! Why not! I LOVE hats!!
