Happy Halloween!

I know it's a bit late, but Mommy had a big test and a project to work on, so picture editing had to wait. Since I had my MRIs on Thursday and had to stay up all night, I was still pretty cranky on Friday, so it was hard to get a picture of me smiling. But once the trick or treating started, I was all smiles! The trick then was taking a picture of five little moving targets who were in a hurry to get to the next doorstep. Last year Madeline was too nervous to ring the doorbells, but this year she raced up to the doors, saying "Tick oh teat" and "Tankoo" in her best voice, and proclaiming "Daddy! I got MOE CADDY!"



Here we are, the elephant and the mouse that it's afraid of, (and no wonder) pausing for just a moment in our quest for sugar.

My friend Jacob heard that I was going to be a mouse for Halloween, and he immediately decided that he would need to be a black cat so that he could chase me. The evening was all backwards, with the cat leading the way, followed by the mouse, followed by the elephant, followed by Diego!

We were joined for the first time this year by Baby Kathryn, my birthday buddy and partner in crime. Her extremely lovely fairy costume made me wish I had decided to be a princess instead-- so when we got home, I gave out treats wearing my Belle dress. The candy went fast, as each trick or treater received a fistful from myself, Kathryn, and Madeline.
