First of all, Happy BIRTHDAY to my (blake) mom. Today is "Grammy's" birthday! We are all so grateful for her and hope she has the best birthday ever.
Halloween was 2 days ago and there was a saga. Initally, Jaclyn found Lilly a Lion outfit, complete with mane! It was very cute, but this is what happened whenever we put the mane on her.
As you can see...not a happy camper. Nonetheless a very effective lion roar, I think. Whenever we would ask her if she wanted to be a lion, she would demonstratively say, "NO!" Then Jaclyn spent at least 3 hours of her off day making her a bumble bee costume because we would ask Lilly if she wanted to be a bumble-bee and she would nod, "YES!" So, Jac made a wonderful costume of yellow and black lacy material but whenever she approached Lilly with it, she would cry and run away! Didn't even let us hold it up to her so that Jac could fit it. So needless to say we were running out of ideas. My mom had given us Kera's old puppy pj's, so we asked lilly if she wanted to be a puppy, and she said, "Uh huh." So we put her in the suit. She must hate things on her head...because this is the only picture I got with her keeping the ears on.
Then we went to trick or treat...made it to only 2 houses. Whenever anyone gave her candy, she would just wail whenever we made her put it in her bag. As long as she had one piece in each hand she was good to go.
Then we had a neighborhood get together with all of the other families on our block, had pizza, homemade cupcakes, and Lilly got to bounce in the moon bounce with the other children and learned a new feat! More on this later. Have a great week everyone!
