Halloween!!!

I know, this post is about a week overdue, but things have been a little hectic around here lately.

First, let me say that I LOVE Halloween!!! Did you know that at night, you get to go out in the dark with your Dad and a flashlight and knock on your neighbors' doors and ask for candy and they actually give it to you???!!!!

I was an elephant for Halloween. And so was my friend Amelia. She and my friend Hayden came over to go trick-or-treating that night (apparently that's what you're supposed to say--"trick-or-treat" when you want candy from your neighbors. It worked so well that night that I'll have to give it a try again soon). Mommy tried to get pictures of us altogether, but she wanted us to just stand there. Who was she kidding? We were all so excited, there was no way we were going to stand still. So instead, we ran circles around and around the kitchen and family room and living room.

This is what Mommy got:

Can you see me in the bottom left hand corner?

This is a better shot of me on the run:


And here's Amelia and Hayden:

Getting ready to head out:

Check out my stash! I was allowed to eat anything I wanted in one sitting! Daddy thought the candy was his too since he's the one who took me out. I decided to be nice and share.

Unfortunately, my bag ripped TWICE while I was trick-or-treating.

And Mommy forgot to change my diaper before we left, so this is what my pants looked like when we got back:

But I didn't even notice. I was too busy eating my candy. I didn't finish my candy that night--there was still a lot left. But somehow it has mysteriously disappeared....
