Halloween Round-Up!

Friday was the Halloween parade at preschool. We all got dressed up and showed off our outfits. I was a beautiful orange butterfly.

But I think Taylor had the best costume. I thought she should be careful if she should meet the Big Bad Wolf.  She looked yummy!

 

Georgie got dressed up too! She's a cute pumpkin... but I think the whole Halloween thing confused her.

Ellicott City was packed with people! I saw a lot of princesses, a banana, a chicken, a lion, and even a slice of pizza. I even found Waldo (of Where's Waldo? fame - I love his books!)

 
This was my first real official Trick-Or-Treating year since Mom and Dad didn't think I could handle it last year. Yeah, I'm shy around new people. I clam up. So this was a great exercise in meeting new people AND getting some candy in the process. I was nervous at first....

...But I got over it.

Especially when we stopped at a Mexican place on the way home and I checked out my stash. But I think Mom and Dad already stole some from my pumpkin. I pointed this out to them this morning, and they denied it. I noticed my Twizzlers (DAD) AND my Sweet Tarts (MOM) are missing... and those happen to be their favorites.



I love Mama and Papa!

I still watch Elmo a lot, but lately I've been loving the Berenstain Bears! They live in a treehouse in Bear Country, and I'm hoping Mom and Dad will consider this kind of house in our next move. I've also decided that I will no longer use "Mom" and "Dad" to refer to my parents. They are now Mama and Papa!

I told Mom the other day that she is just like Mama. Here's what it says about Mama on the Berenstain Bears website: Warm, wise and witty. She is president of the Bear Country Garden Club and is a champion quiltmaker. Mama's favorite recipe is honey cured salmon. The only real problem she has in life is Brother and Sister's messy, messy room.

Okay, maybe they aren't exactly alike...

But I told her that I think they look alike too. When I told Mom that, she decided she needed a makeover.

And I can't wait until Halloween! Maybe Mom and Dad can be Mama and Papa Berenstain. That would be so cool!

"What are you doing here?"

Yesterday Nana and I went shopping at Kohl's. We just needed to pick up a few things. But then, right in front of me was my teacher from preschool... MISS AMY!!! I found it very confusing because I thought Miss Amy lived at the preschool. I didn't know she existed outside our playroom. I thought she ate there and slept there and played there. She was always there when I'm there.

Totally blew my mind. First, Mom and Dad weren't always married. Now this. What's next? I've been hearing rumblings that Nana has another name other than Nana. Jeez.

Here's a picture of me and Miss Amy at our Halloween party. She was the Queen of Hearts - and I thought that suited her well.

I was a Little Fancy Fairy for Halloween!!!

And sometimes, the magic is just bursting right out of me!


Okay, in reality, Daddy took a picture with the flash, just as Mommy took a photo with her iPhone. And this was the result. But I do love that awesome glow!

The Official Halloween Picture for 2008

It is not my style to sit still. I just don't do it. But I did for this one photo so everybody could see me in my Leprechaun costume for Halloween. You'll see this hat often. I like wearing it when I get all creative on my Fisher-Price Piano. That's when I rock out like Elton John.

But this is me. Halloween, 2008

I know you all want to see my Halloween pictures...

I have more, but I have to wait for Daddy to upload them from the camera. But these are from Nana.... I didn't like wearing my hat. It felt funny. Actually the belt felt kind of funny too. I also fell asleep before The Great Pumpkin arrived.


I tried to give out luck to anyone who would take it. And so, I'm sending luck to you too!!! Can you feel it? It kinda tingles. I also might use this outfit at Christmas as the Long & Foster Christmas Elf. (The market is a little down, and I think I can stir up more business as their mascot.)

*sigh* Make that FIVE teeth...

I'm teething again, and this next one is making me want to munch on anything I can get my hands on. Including this Halloween card from Grandma. Can someone tell me how many teeth I'm supposed to have? I thought I was done at four.

*sigh*

Sadiebug!!!!

Remember my soft and yummy pink dress? The one I liked munching on? I felt the same way about this little dress too! Plus, I'm teething, and I have needs.

This is my Halloween costume. I went to a lot of parties, won a bunch of costume contests and was wiped out by the end of the day. I was only disappointed about one little thing... my wings don't actually make me fly. Pretty Lady said it's because I'm baby human, and not a real bug. And that Halloween is just so we can PRETEND. But Fuzzy Face lifted me up so I could feel like I was flying. And that was a lot of fun. I'll try to put up some of those pictures up later.
