Halloween 2017

Halloween 2017 is in the books . . . and on the blog!

Lucy had been all over the place about what she wanted to be for Halloween. And then one day we had her friend Amelia over to play, and her mom said that Amelia had a pink puppy dog costume. And from that moment on there was no turning back. Lucy wanted to be a pink puppy dog like Amelia. I am not the sewing type, and I couldn’t find a pink dog costume in Lucy’s size. But one day as we were randomly walking around Home Goods, I found this dog costume that was exactly Lucy’s size! I gave it a little girly upgrade, and called it a day. Lucy loved it, and it was super easy to do. Win, win!

I took the first picture at night and the second during the day, hence the weird lighting difference.

We got together with friends for a Halloween play date on Monday, and the kiddos did a great job getting into costume and posing for a picture.

My friend Leslie hosted, and I am super envious of this set up she has for her twins.

Lucy and Emily got in to play for a bit, and I didn’t hear a peep out of Ems for almost 20 minutes.

She was too busy attacking Vaughn!

Lucy had school on Halloween morning and was excited to show off her puppy dog costume.

She loves to pretend to nap . . . but not actually nap in real life.

My friend Lisa made all the kiddos cute bags to put their Halloween treats in. Lucy was ready for her first trick-or-treat parade.

She was very soft spoken, but she did say “trick-or-treat” and “thank you” to every person.

Here are 8 of the 10 girls in Lucy’s class. They were all so cute!

It was too chilly to play outside at school, so we went to the gym for the first time and Lucy had a blast.

She walked right up to her teacher, Mrs. Tammy, for this adorable photo.

Checking out her loot from school.

I was trying to get Emmy’s seven month picture when this happened. Genuine moments of affection toward Emily are so rare on Lucy’s end, so it really does my mama heart right when I see things like this happen.
