Halloween has come and gone!


Josie was a Pea in a Pod and I was Mickey Mouse. This was the only picture mommy could get of me because Mickey would not appear in front of the camera. Okay, I will not take a picture for anyone. I don't like cameras so if you want a picture, don't tell me. Josie didn't like her costume. She cried every time mommy put her in it so that is why it was never buttoned. Besides our costumes, daddy carved one of our pumpkins. I didn't really help because I thought it was gross. In fact, when I wanted to touch the guts, I decided I didn't want to because that is just way too gross. Daddy did the carving and I did the watching. On Halloween we actually ran around to a couple of different places, but we at least started early enough this year that I got to go trick or treating with my neighbors. We first headed to my great grandma and grandpa Mauer's house and I got my first piece of candy for the night. Then we headed up to gma and papa Meyers'. Oh my was that a rush. I saw all my good friends up there and was so excited I kept running into the street. Mommy and daddy finally got so sick of chasing me and were worried that I would get hurt, they decided it was time to go. Our last stop was home. We met up with our neighbors, Bach's and Schrage's, and went down the road to Trick or Treating. I had so much fun running around with Minnie (Cali), Bumble Bee (Claire), football player (Charlie), Star Wars guy (Ryan), and of course my sister and our parents. Josie stayed in the stroller and slept until the very end, but the rest of us kids ran from house to house on Turnberry. I can't believe how much candy and stuff we gathered on one street. Mommy says she has never seen such an excited child about running from house to house. I loved it and can't wait for next year. Besides all our Halloween fun, I am officially potty trained. I only battled mommy a couple of days, but of course I still have to get completely naked, including my socks off! I only wear a diaper at nap and at night time, but I have been dry every night so I'm guessing mommy will not make me sleep in one forever. As for my sister, she can roll over from back to front and has just rolled over from front to back once and that was today. Josie is really trying to sit up now, but she still falls over. I am guessing in the next couple of weeks she will have this mastered also. According to mommy and daddy, Josie is trying to be just like me. She is trying to do everything ahead of schedule. They keep hoping that she is not as quick as me. I don't think she will ever be as fast as me! All is good with our family and hoping all is well with yours. Talk to you all soon.
