Happy Halloween

So Elora did enjoy dressing up in a costume. She, however, was not a fan of trick or treating. 22 months must be still too young. Better luck next year.
First after dressing up, we headed out to the back yard for some pictures.

Then, I figured we might as well try going to a house or two for candy.

The first house was easy. They just had a bowl full on the front step. So we grabbed a piece and headed off to the next house. We get to the next house, and Elora didn't stay on the front stoop long enough to even get a piece of candy. They opened the door and she took off.

Here's Elora after the second house trying to get to her one piece of candy. She couldn't pick it up because of the mittens on her costume and had a screaming melt down approximately 30 seconds after I snapped this picture. Then we went home.

Here's one from last year. Wow she's growing up fast

She liked the giraffes.
She called the rhinos cute. ?

Pumpkin patch

Elora likes to wear her hat. Even at bedtime.

Mommy and Elora

This box that Elora is sitting in usually goes

under the coffee table. It's a place to keep Elora's books and toys and makes for easy clean up at the end of the day. You just toss everything in. Elora prefers to use it as a place to sit. On this particular morning, she emptied it out and climbed in while she ate her breakfast. Well, she emptied most of it out. She's still got her coloring book and a few crayons in there with her.
