Pearce is into every type of superhero and has been for about a year now. A few months ago, I saw on Netflix that the original Incredible Hulk series was on there and I couldn't wait to show Pearce. Ashley and I LOVED The Incredible Hulk show when we were little, so I was looking forward to watching with Pearce. Well, my little guy was hooked from the first episode! He always wants to watch the parts when David Banner transforms into the Hulk over and over. At one point we even got a pair of Pearce's old pajamas that were too small and I cut them up and cut the top up the back so that he could pretend he was the Hulk. He will come into the room and say "Don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry" and then he makes the cutest mean face and rips off his shirt and acts like the hulk, turning over his chair, grrrring, and flexing his muscles. It's so funny! So, ever since he started watching The Incredible Hulk, he said he was going to be the Hulk for Halloween. Daddy showed Pearce costumes on the computer and he just could not wait to get his costume. Last week, I saw the Disney Store had a 25% off sale of their costumes, so I decided to go ahead and take Pearce to look. As soon as we spotted the Hulk costume, I knew he was going to go crazy for it, especially because it came with a mask that went over his head. I tried to get him to look at Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Spider-Man, but Pearce had already started taking his clothes off in the store to put the Hulk costume on :) Pearce just loved this costume and I pretty much had to bribe him to not wear the costume out into the mall. As soon as we got home, clothes were off again, and Pearce became the Hulk! He loved looking at himself in the mirror and I was videoing him and said "Hulk, where did Pearce go?" He said in his toughest voice, "Pearce is gone! I'm the Hulk!" Then in Pearce's sweet voice he said, "Just kidding Mommy, it's me, I just wearing my costume." Then when Daddy got home, the costume went on again :) We've now hidden it so that it will be in good condition by Halloween :) I can't wait to see my little guy in his costume on Halloween!!! This Halloween will be especially fun because we are going to Dallas so that Pearce can be with Nathan and Charlotte...Halloween, hurry up and get here!!
I absolutely love how his imagination just takes over and he becomes the Hulk! Matthew loved the Hulk like you and Ashley did. I wish I had the Hulk toy he had. It was a figure about 12 inches tall, but it was rubberized and the arms and legs stretched and got bigger. Pearce would love it. I know he'll love trick-or-treating with Nathan and Charlotte. But, your neighborhood does such a great job. I hope theirs does, too. Enjoy!
