Trick or Treat!

After I woke up from my nice long nap, Mommy and Daddy asked me if I was ready to go trick-or-treating and I nodded yes! We jumped into Daddy's truck and headed to Nana and Poppy's house. Mommy told me I had to put my costume on to trick or treat. I didn't complain at all. In fact, I patted my back to show Mommy where to velcro my wings. The only part of the costume I never cared to wear was the hat, but Mommy and Daddy didn't try to force it since I wore everything else! I walked up to their front door acting like I knew just what to do. When Nana and Poppy came out, I put my pumpkin down so they could fill it up! Nana and Poppy filled it with yummy treats and a book! When we left Nana and Poppy's, I decided to snack on my treats and I chose my animal cookies. Mommy checked the box and said it was okay to eat! Next stop was my Nino's house! As soon as Mommy took me out of my car seat, I grabbed my pumpkin from Daddy and headed straight for their front door. I knew the routine. Nino opened the door, I put my pumpkin down so it could be filled and I walked right into their house so I could hug Nina and play with their dog, Buster Brown. Daddy told me that we don't walk into every house that we trick-or-treat at, but this house was okay! My Ninos put yummy treats in my pumpkin and gave me a stuffed jack-o-lantern that was just too big to fit in my pumpkin. I loved playing with my Ninos for a little while. It was then time to head to our last stop, G.G's house. As we arrived at G.G.'s house I kicked my feet because I knew what to do! I walked up to the door with my pumpkin and when G.G. opened the door, I walked right into her house! I gave G.G. my pumpkin and she gave me my book and something special for my piggy bank! We asked G.G. if she wanted to come back home with us and she quickly agreed :)! While G.G. put her shoes on, we walked to the Derksen's house to trick-or-treat. They were surprised when they opened the door and saw me standing and holding my pumpkin for some treats! We visited with them for a little while and I enjoyed sharing a cookie with Melanie and drinking some yummy cranberry juice! We then headed back to our house. I missed trick-or-treating at Nina Nina and Nina Nina Dia's houses, but they were out of town. When we got to my house, I ran to the door with my pumpkin and tried trick-or-treating. I was sure surprised when my Uncle Paul answered the door and gave me some treats! Uncle Paul, Grandpa, Nana, and Poppy helped pass out candy at our house while we were gone. I love trick-or-treating and I love being a ladybug! I didn't complain about my costume all day! Once back at home, Aunt Stacie, Uncle Kenny, Allison, Tio Martin, and Tia Renee came over for some yummy pizza and trick-or-treaters. G.G. and Uncle Kenny seemed to have the most fun passing out candy. I liked helping too! I even helped Allison trick-or-treat at our house! We celebrated more than Halloween tonight! When Uncle Kenny came over, he had just some from the racetrack where he had won is drag car race and he had an awesome trophy that stated he was King of the Track! Congratulations Uncle Kenny! What a fun-filled day! I loved every part of it! I still don't feel very well, but I didn't let that stop me from enjoying my second Halloween! Enjoy all the photos!

Being a ladybug is hard work. It's time for a trick-or-treating snack!

Let's go Mommy, I have more houses to stop at! (this is one of Mommy's favorite photos)

Ready or not, here I come G.G.

I love my treats from G.G.

Mommy caught me eating another snack, raisins, while waiting for the Derksens to answer their door

I held my pumpkin up high so Melanie wouldn't miss it :)

Trick-or-treating at my own house:) (Another one of Mommy's favorite photos)

Uncle Paul filled my pumpkin with yummy treats

I didn't just walk right in to my own house, but it is probably because we don't usually go through the front door.

I checked on all our decorations when we got home. I gave Pooh Bear a special hug tonight for all his work this season.

Our pumpkins this year: Telly Monster, Elmo, and Lightening McQueen

Poppy took my trick-or-treating to the neighbor's house

Allison came trick-or-treating and I gave her some candy

I gave Allison candy from my own pumpkin

I was too interested to see inside the pumpkin to sit like Allison for a picture. Mommy still thinks this is a cute photo!

As the night went on, I got sillier. I put my princess crown on that I made earlier today so I could be a princess ladybug:)

Mommy caught me in the middle of my trick-or-treat dance

I even tried balancing a pumpkin on my head

This is a short video clip of my trick-or-treat dance. Please don't listen to Mommy singing, just watch my feet. Whenever I heard anyone sing, "trick-or-treat, smell my feet..." I would start tapping my right foot. Mommy, Daddy, and Nana think it is too cute. Mommy tried all day to catch it on her camera and was able to towards the end of the night. Enjoy this short dance!
