Trick or Treat

Yesterday mom and I went shopping. Kenna got a new pair of shoes (in the picture). Of course, she had to match the shoes with a pink princess dress, pink socks and a huge pink bow in her hair. She looked cute, although I couldn't get a "good" picture of her. She either wouldn't look at me or she gave me HUGE CHEEEEEESE smiles! Ha ha



Last night Tony and Greg went to a football game. I was trying to come up with something fun for Kenna and I to do on a Friday night at home alone (with Delaney). I decided to bake cookies. Kenna is GREAT. She loves rolling out the dough and cutting them into shapes with cookie cutters. We made bats, moons, and pumpkins.

Bat cookies before we baked them


Kenna REALLY loved frosting them. I was afraid she would get sick of it but she hung in there until all the cookies were frosted. We made orange pumpkins and purple moons and bats. She did so good!

And, finally the best part of baking the cookies was to taste them. I let Kenna stay up a little later so that she could give Papa Dee and Daddy a cookie when they got home from the football game. She was so proud of them!


On to the next adventure. Cloth diapers. I decided to give it a try after feeling the hurt of having to buy diapers again. I guess with, Kenna I never really thought about how much money we were spending, or how often, we were buying diapers until she was potty trained and it was kind of nice not buying them! These are much different than cloth diapers when I was a baby. They come in all kinds of cute colors and patterns, are fleece lined on the inside, then have a pocket to insert a washable absorbent pad. The entire diaper is washable and the outside is waterproof. This brand I bought on ebay for about $4 a diaper. I have 10 to start out but I imagine we will need more. It is unreal how many brands are out there (and how expensive some are)


Delaney in her pumpkin shirt. I can't believe how blue her eyes look in this picture! She looks so big sitting there propped up on the couch. When did she get so big?!? Wasn't she just born yesterday??

Andrew dressed up as a monkey and Kenna was a ballerina bunny for trick-or-treating. Kenna has been snow white the last few halloween events we have been to and she has been on this bunny kick recently. She pretends to be a bunny and hops around the living room so I thought we'd just go with it!



Look at Andrew's smile in this picture. Ha ha! And Kenna was checking to make sure her tail was still on.


My beautiful bunny!






Daddy and Kenna enjoying trick or treating- this was before we got smart and got the wagon and a blanket. It was FREEEEEEEZING!!

Granny snuggling with Delaney


Kenna and her loot! She got TONS of candy. She is such a sweetheart. She wanted to make sure to share her treats with everyone. In this picture she was opening a pack of gum she got. She gave all of us pieces of it. It was SOOO sweet! She wanted to make sure we all got treats. Also, Granny had a bucket with candy in it. Kenna would say "Tick or treat", then put candy in Granny's bucket! AWWWWWW
