Halloween Carnival

My mom's church had a Halloween Carnival last Tuesday. My mom asked if I wanted to bring Kaidance and we were so excited. I had ordered her costume the first week in October, so I was sure it was going to be here. (I even called the place three times!) The funny story is that it didn't come, though they guaranteed me on the phone it would be here that day. Thus, I didn't go buy a cheap costume. I contemplated taking her, because I didn't have a costume, but she said she wanted to go.

I ran up to her room, looked around and made her into a ballet princess. Silly stuff I had in her room! I guess that had to work.

Little side note, I ended up getting her costume the next day!

The Carnival was great. Kaidance ran around jumping and squealing. She thought is was the best thing ever. She ate cookies, threw rings, did a cake walk, colored, got her face painted and used stickers.

What a blast! Kylie and Shakobe came too! I know my mom was so excited to have all three grand kids there!

Thanks mom for the invite! You made My angel's day!

Carving Pumpkins, or should we say Eating pumpkins?

Daddy, Kaidance and Mommy Pumpkins!

Mom and Kaidance pumpkin!

We carved pumpkins on Sunday night. It was so much fun. Eric's sister and her family came over along with Ashlee and Ruth. It was so much fun. Marcy and her girls made dessert and it was amazing.

Kaidance LOVES pumpkins! She likes to look at them everywhere. She gets a little nervous if they have a mean face and will sometimes say they are scary! It is really cute! Last year, she ate a lot of the raw pumpkin, gross huh? Well this year it was no different. She carried pieces of pumpkin around with her eating them! What a silly girl!

Hope everyone is getting ready for the big Trick-or-Treat!

Binki is "Broken"

Our Sleeping Beauty! Taking up the whole bed! (and the blankets!)

It has officially been 1 week since I took Kaidance's Binki away. I cut them and told her they were broken. She has done so well with it, I can't believe I was dreading it so much. She takes a little longer to take her naps and go to sleep at night, but she has been so amazing through it. About once a day she will ask for Binki! It is cute, I tell her they are broken and see will say, " I see it?" She makes me laugh.

The first night I walked around rocking her to sleep and it was a blessing. I miss my baby and that was really what I needed. She made me realize I need to slow down and enjoy her more. At night we tickle her back, face or belly until she falls asleep.

Yesterday she was playing and she had a conversation with herself. It went something like this:

"A Binki?" "No, it broken." "Mom Broke it." "I see it?" "Mom says I big." "K"

It was the cutest thing! I just watched and listened in amazement. I can't believe she said all of that! She is getting to be so big!

It is her Birthday on the 2nd. Can't wait for the party! We are doing a lavender cupcake theme! It is going to be a blast!

Pumpkin Walk 2011

We went to the Pumpkin Walk last night! It was so much fun! Kaidance loved it! Her favorite was Tangled! She cried and was so upset when we had to leave that display! What a fun night! The long line was worth it!

Oh, and in case you are wondering about the pictures of me, yes I did get braces. I am officially brace face! I had braces placed on my teeth on Wednesday! I get to love them for a year and a half! Hope I get used to them!

Tangled!

Here she is watching Tangled at Grandma's and reading a book! This is her routine when she is at Grandma and Grandpas!

Kaidance has a new favorite show! She LOVES Tangled. She sometimes will call it Tangled and other times she calls it Punzel! It is so cute! She wants to watch it everywhere we go. We officially watch Tangled at least three times a day! (At least it is a cute show, right?)
