Trick or Treat!

Happy Halloween! Well a belated Halloween anyway. Mommy says that we are finally emerging from our sugar coma so it's time to post some Halloween pictures. This is the first year that I actually got to pick what I wanted to be for Halloween. For awhile I kept telling Mommy I wanted to be two years old, but once I caught on to the fact I could dress up like anything I wanted I chose a princess. This decision was mainly because all of my friends at school were going to be princesses, so I had to be one too. Mommy was afraid we wouldn't find an outfit, because she waited until the weekend before Halloween to get one. She made me try a couple on in the store and we finally found the prettiest blue dress! It even had a crown. The day after we bought it, Mommy let me try it on again and I didn't take it off for hours.

Well finally the day came and I got to wear the dress to school. We were having a party so I showed up at school wearing my princess dress just like all the other girls. We had so much fun! We got a ton of candy at school and had cookies for snacks. Once Mommy picked me up from school we went home and had a quick dinner and then got ready for trick or treating. Now I knew what to do because last year I brought home a bunch of candy from the neighborhood and I couldn't wait!

But first Mommy and Daddy made me pose by the pumpkins.

Then we had to take a picture in the grass. It was very hard to get a good picture of me, because I just wanted to run around and GET CANDY!

This year even Lizzy dressed up. She wore my bee costume from when I was 1. As you can see she was less then thrilled when she put her costume on. She immediately yanked on the hat and wanted to take it off. She also had a party at school but her costume didn't stay on the whole day. She kept pulling at the hat and the wings. So Miss Tanya and Miss Natalie saved her from going crazy and took it off.

I think Lizzy realized that she might get some candy so she got excited when she went outside in her costume.

We went all through the neighborhood, first I went to a couple of houses with Lizzy, but then she got tired and had to go home. But my friend Miles (who now lives down the street!) came over and we went to lots of houses together. We took turns ringing the door bell.

Once I got home I was so tired, but I found the energy to unload my candy and try a few pieces. I think I have enough candy to last quite a while! I can't wait for next year when Elizabeth can trick or treat too! We will get twice as much candy.

Mommy thought it would be fun to show some pictures from last Halloween.

Elizabeth was only 4 days old the last time I went trick or treating.

Since she wasn't able to go herself I tried to share some of my candy with her. Mommy said "NO!" but now she loves this picture.
