Abby had a blast on her first real Halloween outing. Last year didn't really count, since she was asleep long before the trick-or-treating ever started.Our cute little bumble bee (or "bubblebee," as she referred to herself) spent all day making people smile in her costume.
We joined Justin for lunch at the office costume party his company throws for the kiddos and then stopped for groceries on the way home and got to tour the WeinerMobile before Abby crashed for the afternoon. (Incidentally, this is the third time in my life I've run into this thing, which seems like a slightly higher rate of encounter than most.)After enjoying some warm chili with our neighbors, we headed out for some neighborhood trick-or-treating with one very cute bee and one very cute Mickey Mouse. The girls had a blast and did a great job collecting some delicious candy for the parents to enjoy over the next few days. (Or, in the case of their two pregnant moms, possibly the next few hours.) Abby did surprisingly well for her first time. With Maddie Mouse in the lead to show her how things worked, Abby picked up pretty quickly on carrying her pumpkin up to the door and picking a piece (or five) out of a bowl for herself. She even got pretty good at saying "trick or treat," which sounds a little like "tee-o-tee." Next year we'll work on making sure she doesn't go inside everybody's house.
