Trick or Treat!

We had a great time tonight kicking off the holiday season with a bit of trick or treating in the neighborhood. My giraffe costume was a big hit and Emily seemed very happy roaming the cul de sac in her froggy outfit. I had no problem picking up on the finer points of this adventure, remembering to say "trick or treat" then "happy halloween" after snagging the goods. Even remembered to say thank you with a few prompts! I have lots of energy tonight and wasn't tired at all at bedtime!

Had a nice dinner at my friend Elsa's house, our own quiet table away from the adult witty banter. Worked up our appetites jumping on her bed like a couple of monkeys. As you can see, I quite enjoyed it.

Every kid needs their happy apple!

Well the days are quickly growing shorter and cooler here in Issaquah, and all the neighbors have their itsy bitsy spiders hung on the front porch, so Halloween must be near. I got my first taste of candy corn recently and there is nothing like that sugar high for a two year old! Can't wait to trick or treat!

Dad says Emily looks almost as happy as Holly used to with her happy apple!

With a little more practice I'll be feeding Emily her bottle

First ride in the high chair! Emily started on rice cereal this week. I never could stand the stuff but she seems to enjoy it.
