Halloween

All-in-all I think Lila enjoyed Halloween. We carved pumpkins Thursday night, and then Jenna, the neighbor, went trick or treating with us on Halloween. Lila got scared of some of the decorations as we went from house to house, esp. those that made nosie. Roman or I had to carry her to quite a few doors, but she enjoyed looking in her bucket to see what people had given her. She's never really eaten candy so she didn't understand what it all was until we got home. It was time to go to bed so we didn't want to let her try too much of the candy. We gave her some Twizzlers licorice pieces and she was in love. Today she's been telling us "bum, bum" all day. That's what she calls her trick or treat pumpkin (and any other pumpkin she sees for that matter).

We're having problems with our camera, so the quality of some of the pictures is poor. There's a video at the bottom of her after we got home with her candy stash.

She liked scooping the stuff out of the pumpkin

Her costume has a hood that has antenna on it, but she won't let us put the hood on her head. So I made these antenna instead and attached them to two red hair bows. This is how we determined they were a little too long. She thought it was so fun to swing her head back and forth so the antenna would flop around.

She loved her pumpkin...

...as evidenced by her kissing it.
