Tiny Bubbles

This is her first bubble bath, it it blew her away. 

Super Nho-Nho!

Here she comes to save the day! We had such a blast this weekend, eating and drinking with friends on Saturday and Halloween on Monday.  We started off with a spaghetti dinner at Larry and Lynn's, and then walked around the Sunset tricking and treating.  Huelan was totally game for it.  At first she thought the whole costume thing was hokey, but when she saw everyone dressed up kinda different, she owned it. 

She took to trick-or-treating right away. Though she didn't like the walking from house to house because it was dark, once we got to a house's walkway, she would hustle to the front door and hold out her bag.  A few places let her choose the candy she wanted out of the bowl, and she wasn't shy.  I think that she is going to like this tradition.

Somewhere along the line, she decided that all candy was Momma's candy, so she will go the the candy dish in our house and point to the candy and say "Momma, Momma."  I think it's funnier than Liz does.

By the way, that's not makeup on her eye.  More on that later....

Props to Amy Im, who inspired this costume by crafting about 30 of these superhero capes for her son Ethan's birthday party last month!

Yeah, but you should see the other girl....  Actually this was not the result of a sandbox scuffle, but rather a full speed header into the windowsill in our living room.  I was outside and she ran to the window to see what I was doing, but tripped on the way there.  All I heard was the loud thump, and I knew something bad happened.  We weren't sure where she wacked herself until a little while longer and the swelling started.  It looks pretty bad, but it doesn't really seem to bother her. And it could have been worse if she had knocked a few teeth out. 

Makes her look tough and the other kids don't mess with her at all.
