Little late on more Halloween posts

On Halloween we stayed in and handed out candy rather than taking Jordan out trick or treating. She doesn't each much candy, which I understand considering she really only has 2 teeth to chew it with, so it seemed crazy to take her around the neighborhood collecting candy. She only handed candy to 1 little boy, but she had to run to the door each time the doorbell rang or kids came to the door just to check everyone out.

Although she wouldn't wear the headpiece for her own costume either time she wore it, she wore the headpiece for Maddie's for a few minutes the night of trick or treat.

Yes, Maddie and Jordan had matching costumes. I swear to you Dave was the one responsible for Maddie's costume though!

Jordan appears to be getting 3 teeth right now, though they are strangely all on one side of her mouth all on the top. I hope that is the reason she has been waking up once per night recently crying. We didn't realize there were so many coming in until yesterday evening when Dave was holding her upside down playing with her in the kitchen where the lights caught the glimmer of the teeth. Ouch! Not much else going on around here except getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Mom may keep Jordan for us this evening so we can sleep! Sad that that is what we look forward to now...

Halloween pics- round 1

This is the third time I've tried to load Halloween pictures from our home computer- frustrating! But anyway...

The Sunday before Halloween our neighborhood had a Halloween parade for the kids. As usual, we ran a minute late and missed the group picture. Maybe next year.

At the end of the parade everyone went to a neighbor's garage where there were lots of goodies and snacks for kids and adults. There were games, but Jordan was really too young for hot potato or eating the donuts tied to the tree. She had a good time playing in the neighbor's side yard with the soccer balls (whenever the big kids took a break).

Here is my little ladybug with icing all over her fingers. Why wouldn't she do this at her birthday party?!?

And a better view of my little lady bug. She refused to wear the hood for more than 2 seconds and ended up with icing all over her tights, but she had a good time.

Happy (belated) Halloween!
