This weekend we had a lot of fun with the Halloween festivities. As soon as Julianna got off the bus on Friday she asked when Halloween started. I told her that it started that morning, but she was talking about the trick or treating part. I told her that started around 6:00, which seems like an eternity to a 5 year old. When went out for dinner, because lets me honest I had been snacking on the candy already and I wasn't really in the mood to cook. I always start out motivated on Monday and somehow loose that as the week progresses. After dinner Julianna got dressed in her Sharpay costume. We curled her hair and put some makeup on her. She looked great! She went trick or treating with Addie and Avery (her neighbor friends). She trick or treated for a couple hours and then came home to pass out candy to the other trick or treaters. Ansley sported her pumpkin hat and bib that Grandma Fran got for her- next year she will be able to enjoy it a little more (and next year I can get her candy!)
Saturday morning we counted Julianna's candy for her homework assignment. She had 206 peices!!! I am glad that she isn't keeping track of it because I have been helping her eat it without her knowledge. We also ventured to BJs on Saturday. We stocked up on diapers and wipes for the baby, so we shouldn't need any for another couple weeks- that is actually exciting for a mother! We also went to a deli and Ansley got her second taste of ice cream. She actually had the nerve to get fussy when I stopped sharing it with her- the girl already knows what she likes.
Sunday, figuring that if Ansley likes ice cream she may also enjoy a little rice cereal, I bought some and tried it out. No such luck. I know that she is a little young, but I am trying to get her excited about something besides nursing. The neighborhood girls are going to see Chicago in a couple weeks, and I had planned on going, but now I am thinking that I won't be able to. She refuses to take a bottle, and I am too much of a softy to push it. We will keep working on it though.
