| Emily and "her"pumpkins |
Boy what a difference a year makes! Last year Emily had a blast helping to carve the pumpkins at grandpa and grandma's and Titi and Uncle Larry's, but she wasn't talking near as much as this year!
Last night Emily, JuJu, and mommy had so much fun carving our pumpkins for this Halloween! Emily was talking up a storm and even talked directly at the video camera as I recorded her. WOW!!!
Let me go back to the beginning of the evening. JuJu came over after work carrying two big pumpkins, carving tools, and a surprise for Emily. Her Halloween costume had been delivered...via auntie mail!
Emily has wanted to be Belle for a long time for "Trick or Treat" (what she calls Halloween), and was SO EXCITED to open her package. She got a dress, light up Belle shoes, and a Belle tiara. After the excitement of getting her costume, trying it on, falling in love with the light up shoes, and letting JuJu hang up the costume in her closet, she was ready to do pumpkins!
Wearing mommy's shirt, she was raring to go! Emily had a blast helping scoop out all of the pumpkin goo, and was laughing and talking and wanting to help do every bit! After the scooping out part, she loved watching mommy carve a "happy" face on one pumpkin while JuJu started working on "two happy ghosts" on the other one! After Emily was done helping (well, couldn't really use the knives yet), she enjoyed a popsicle while mommy held her and we watched JuJu carve the ghosts!
She liked seeing them lit up with candles, but was very worried about them being outside in front, so they are now on the back patio so she can see them when she is outside swinging!
Today at school, Emily got her first book order! Mommy and Emily filled out the order form a couple weeks ago, and the books were delivered today! She was so happy that all the way home in the car she looked at books, as well as the first hour of being home! After dinner and a bath, it was on to more books while sitting on her sleeping bag and then snuggling mommy!
Enjoy the pictures! I am sure there will be many more from Halloween!
