Halloween hoot

Halloween was awesome. First it started with a party at school. Once we all dressed up in our costumes--I was an owl--we had a little dance party to get warmed up. (Check out the video below.) My friend Vera was a peacock and Adi was a tiger. I kept swiping at their headpieces, which they didn't seem to like very much. Then we went over to the park and Wayne the music man came with his guitar and we danced and sang some more.

Next we met up with our friends the Ingermans and went trick or treating in their neighborhood. It was amazing. You just ring the doorbell, walk up to the person holding a candy bowl, smile at the person and take a piece of candy. So simple. I got it down by the third house. Sometimes I even grabbed two or three pieces of candy and other times I didn't grab any. Instead I put my hand in the candy bowl and just moved it around. No one seemed to mind as long as you smile.

Then today we had some friends over for a Halloween party. Mommy and daddy made all this spooky food, like mummy hotdogs, ghost bananas, vampire teeth, cheese spiders, human cheese fingers, vegetables shaped into a big pumpkin and we even had a pumpkin puking guacomole. (He he he.) That was my favorite. Halloween is the funiest holiday!

 

Material girl

Check out my new black leather skirt. I LOVE it. It was a birthday present from Jersey Fran. It made all my daycare girlfriends jealous. :) There are no boys at school that I'm interested in anymore. Instead, I'm really into Fran's grandson, David. We hung out last weekend and he hugged and kissed me many, many times. Daddy started to get a little mad. (He he.) Mommy thought it was funny and just took photos.

This skirt is my favorite!

Me and David. What a hunk!

Monster-ific day

How come I'm just finding out about Halloween?! All you do is dress up in a costume and people give you candy. How cool is that? I don't even care that mommy and daddy take all the candy, it's just fun going up to people and getting to pick something out of their candy bowls. Being a walker rules!! Today I dressed up as a furry monster. Everyone kept calling me adorable and giggling at me. I can't lie, I love all the attention. On the real Halloween on Friday I'm going to be an owl. I've been practicing saying whoo..whoo.



Am I scary? I'm trying to
be scary.

Got my treats and on to
the next place.

This is the best holiday ever!

Needles be gone

I had my one year check up today. The doctor couldn't believe how well I am walking. I now weigh 26 pounds, 4 ounces and I'm 31.5 inches long. That's the 98th percentile. In addition to the normal check up stuff I got four shots. FOUR! They came out of nowhere and boy did they hurt. Not cool doc, not cool.

Mommy's back

Mommy disappeared for two days and she finally came back today. I was so excited to see her I practically ran to give her big wet kisses. Then I quickly remembered that I was mad at her for going away without me. I decided to teach her a lesson and give her the cold shoulder (that means to ignore someone). I wouldn't even look at her. It made mommy really really sad. Of course that made me feel pretty bad. A lot of hugs later we're back to normal. She just better not disappear again.

Tired and sloppy

A lot of my friends at school got sent home early because they are sick. They have fevers. I've never gotten a fever before. I overheard parents and teachers talking that it means your body gets all hot and achy and you feel yucky. Sounds horrible. I hope I don't catch one. I wonder if fevers also make you tired. I've been feeling really tired lately. When I'm tired I get what daddy calls "sloppy" and start walking into things. At school I walked into the side of the play house and I have another bump on my head. :( Maybe I need another nap.

Passed out on the couch.
