Happy Halloween!

Last year Kaleigh was dressed up as a Ladybug... this year... a BUTTERFLY! We were a bit concerned that she would revolt and not cooperate but she did great, as long as we didn't put her little hat/head on. We went to a few houses on our street and then went to a larger neighborhood down the street. I am worried that she will want to walk up and down the street every night now, dressed up and go knock on doors for candy! She got scared a few times but for the most part seemed very intrigued. Todd and I carved pumpkins this afternoon before the trick or treating took place :) I love being a kid again!

I must stay on top of this!! Let's catch up....

She loves seeing ANY yellow school bus!

Her first petting zoo... 

Her personalized pumpkin!

Her very 1st roller coaster at the State Fair

A little toy at the Galleria Mall - and she is having a serious talk w/ him!

Loving her some bell peppers!

Her hair is now long enough for a pony tail

She thought she was really tough sitting on his mouth

Helping Grandma pick pepeprs

Lola wants to be her new best friend!

First time walking/holding Patches with a leash

Flowers... 

She always stops to smell the flowers

And sometimes taste... 

Outside...

I really think that if I were to allow Kaleigh to stay outside for the entire day, she would... I love being out in the mornings and late afternoon but not so much during the middle of the day. So, during those hours she plays, takes a nap and occasionally walks over and looks out the backdoor and points as if she were telling me that she wants to go outside. I do my best to distract her, but sometimes I fail miserably. It doesn't help that mom has made her a baby oasis in the back yard and bought her a water/sand table today - now she will NEVER want to stay indoors!

Look who is SUPER cool in her shades!

Water/Sand Table

She spent over an hour playing and didn't want to eat dinner

This is what happens when she is smelling the roses and an airplane passes over
