Halloween

Megan's first Trick-or-Treat was a mixed bag. She loved getting dressed up in her fancy witch outfit and waving her good witch wand. She even wore her hat for quite awhile. Here we are getting ready to head out. We started at around six o'clock so it would still be light outside.

Here we are heading across the street to the neighbors house to get some candy. This is looking like it might be fun.
Here we are across the street at Leslie and Wesley's. (We have several sets of rhyming neighbors.) She was a little timid, but she knows Leslie so things went OK.
We came back across the street and checked out our loot. Some of the neighbor boys from down the street came to give her some candy and then we tried one more house. Unfortunately any time anyone else put anything in her pumpkin- even when it was another little kid- she erupted into tears. So, we came home in trick-or-treat disgrace to pass out candy on the porch.Around seven, Megan was ready to go back inside and we took a nice bath, which she enjoyed, and then we got ready for bed.

October Fun

Ok, so I haven't been very active on the blog site this month. We haven't been doing anything special lately, but the grandparents are all complaining so..... here are a few of Megan's most recent antics.

She's started getting into my pots and pans. Most of the time she actually puts them back when she's done. In this picture, I think she's actually trying to smile for the camera.
She loves to run around the house with her ball popper. She runs from the door to the family room to her bedroom to see how fast she can make it pop.
My girl still likes to play with the telephone. Recently she's been picking it up and saying hello- well more like "O-Ooh." She also starting to talk back to the person on the phone instead of just listening. The other day I got her to tell grandma Bonnie all the animal sounds on the phone.
Megan gives her Valentine puppy and other stuffed animals hugs and kisses.
This weekend we did go to the children's museum. Megan loved the watching the baby chicks and pretending to shop at the grocery store and go fishing.

She'g gotten pretty good at eating with a spoon, when she's not just playing around.

Megan loves going outside and on wagon rides. Thank goodness its finally starting to cool off enough to take her out to play.
What girl can resist trying on mommy's shoes.
