Happy Halloween!


Lucy LOVED the concept of Halloween this year. She was introduced to It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown, trick or treating, candy, witches and ghosts, and pumpkins galore. She dressed up as Jessie the cowgirl from Toy Story.  


I love this picture! Running into Nana and Papa's house; from behind she looks just like Jessie!


Sophie made the CUTEST owl ever! She was game for anything and let me put on her costume with no complaints. I've continued using her costume hood as a hat now that it's colder outside.

BOO at the ZOO

 

A trip to Michigan! We took Lucy to meet her friends Taryn, Luke, and Dean in Michigan. The three kids dressed in costumes and wandered the zoo. It was somewhat cold, so Nana rigged Lucy's cowgirl hat to stay on by attaching it to a winter hat. Nana also helped hem the cowgirl pants. Lucy dressed as the little Jessie (from Toy Story). Taryn is the yellow lion, Simba from the Lion King. Luke is the fancy fireman with his family name personalized on the back!


This picture of the 3 of them is so touching to me. It's so special to see our little ones all together; some of my best girlfriend's babies. And they are all so close in age!


My little Sophie, the owl.










The petting zoo was hilarious. Lucy kept hiking up her leg and trying to swing it over the goats while continually saying "Wanna ride, wanna ride." One goat got the best of her though...Lucy was trying to walk forward when all of a sudden she got stuck. A goat surprised us by chomping on her Jessie braid! He ate the little yellow bow! I had to yank our the braid in order to free her. I love that Daddy caught this on camera.




Odd, but they had a singing mermaid that you could take your picture with there. Lucy was a good sport.


The corn maze




Back at Angela's house, I was able to get some better pictures of baby Dean!
He is THISclose to crawling.

Didier Farm



It's becoming a yearly tradition...a visit to Didier Farm during the fall Halloween season. We met Brendan, Chase, and Kim for an afternoon of pony rides, donuts and pumpkins. Sophie sat all by herself among the pumpkins!

The Fresh Beat Band II



It wasn't Lucy's first concert, but it was her first time going out on the town to the Chicago Theater. We wanted a special night out for big sister, so Lolo and Lola were kind enough to babysit Sophie for the night and we took Lucy to dance and sing at the Fresh Beat Band concert. She clung to us in the beginning of course, but eventually warmed up and danced! She is so cute!
