BOO! Happy Halloween!

Halloween is a fun holiday.  Pumpkins, costumes, candy, oh my.  Who doesn't love Halloween?  I was ready for it with my bucket.  Notice how big it is!  I was hoping to fill it with lots and lots of Puffs for my 1st Halloween!
























Bucket ... check.  Giant pumpkin ... check.

Ready for Halloween!

Look at me, I'm a monkey!  Inspired by my room decor.  Even though Daddy has never been a big fan of Halloween, he seemed very excited about his costume.  Don't you think Daddy looks just like Tarzan?

Nice wig Daddy!

Our first Halloween stop was at a party at Aunt Jenn and Uncle Spencer's.  There were some great costumes and this really iffy clown.  Nannie dressed as a nurse.


Then to Paw-Paw and Nana's where I got some Puffs for my bucket.  There were lots and lots and lots of people coming to get candy from Paw-Paw who couldn't get them candy fast enough.  I even saw one kid grab some for herself while waiting.

Then we were off for our last Trick-or-Treat at Granny and Grandad's where I got more goodies for my bucket.  Halloween is Granny's most favorite holiday.  She has more Halloween decor than you can even look at.  There are pumpkins, witches, ghosts, cats, spiders, more pumpkins, and skeletons everywhere!  Some make noise, some don't.  Some move, some don't.  You just never know.

I was completely worn out after all this fun so I put on my Boo PJs and was sound asleep before I even got back home. 
BOO!

Eating is for the Birds

My first attempts at eating did not go well.  Apparently you're supposed to start with some mushy stuff that once was real food.  Yuck!   Have you ever tried this baby food stuff?   And don't even get me started on cereal.  I tried them all...rice, oatmeal, oatmeal and bananas, wheat, barley...all yuck!

Then I figured out that I could simply just spit it out.  You'd think my parents would've gotten the picture sooner.  And when I refused to open my mouth, Mommy was patient enough to pry some of it in there.  She got an A for effort, but I still wasn't eating it.

I then got to eat these things called Puffs.  Those are much better!  One night I even had Puffs and noodles for dinner.

Still not a fan of the baby food.
But I do like those Puffs.
Hmmm, this flavor is interesting.

OK, maybe some of it isn't so bad afterall.
I'm a mess!  But at least I'm eating!
