Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween! This was E's 3rd time trick or treating (he's a pro) and Caroline's first. All day E was like "Mommy can I get dressed so we can go?" His excitement was super cute! When daddy got home, we ate and then got dressed. I told him we had to take some pictures first and he told only 3. Well if you have kids you know taking only 3 pictures was never going to work. We gave them their pumpkins (which was an awful idea I know) and Caroline had some candy in there from last week. Well all she wanted to do was to take it out and eat it. With the wrapper still on. Lol.

We tried to take the pumpkin away and Snow White became real angry quick. So finally it dawned on me, make them hold hands! She loves holding big brother's hand. So we did that and we got that 1 great picture :) As a parent it's what we called winning.

Now it was time for the good part-Trick or Treating. Well the pure excitement came over her and she started to run like a wild woman. Her pumpkin was swinging and candy was flying out of it. It was cute. She only did a couple of houses because her little legs wouldn't last long and she doesn't need a lot of candy because she's already wild. And of course she was not happy--but daddy had to deal with it while me and E went on. He had so much fun! Running to the houses getting tons of candy. He was very polite and when allowed to take the candy-only took 1. They then said take more, which was fine. Made me feel good he didn't grab handfuls. We came home after about an hour and looked at the loot. Out of all the candy, his eyes were set on the best one-a ring pop?? I mean I saw Reese's, Snickers, Three Musketeers, and so much more. We saved that for the next day and he settled on Nerds.

He said it was the best day ever! His excitement is what makes me happy :)
