Poo Poo

Today when Kristen woke up from her nap I walked into room and she said, "Mommy, I poo poo." The best part was that there was actually poo poo in her diaper!

Halloween

The cutest pumpkin to ever walk the streets was our little Kristen! She loved every minute of Halloween. It first started when the children began to ring the doorbell and we were still eating dinner...Kristen wanted to see who was at the door. She wasn't afraid but instead was so excited to see other kids that she continued to say HI to them over and over. It was so dang cute. We then got her dressed in her pumpkin costume and Marmee dressed up as Anne of Green Gables. Mommy and Daddy were just their plain old selves. Kristen walked to the first house, we rang the doorbell and when the door opened she stood there with a great big smile while the lady put candy in her pumpkin (the one that Grandfather and Gran got for her). Kristen was so thrilled and could not believe this lady had given her something. As we went door to door Kristen just said HI to everyone and walked around like she had been Trick or Treating for years! She was a total natural. When Kristen's pumpkin got too full of candy she stopped and emptied it out into the bigger pumpkin that Mommy was carrying...she new whatever that was that she was getting in her pumpkin must be good stuff and she needed to have more room!

When we were finished Trick or Treating we came inside the house and the first thing that Kristen wanted to do was to go through what people had put in her pumpkin. She pulled out two lollipops and soon realized she could put them in her mouth...and that they tasted great! We put Kristen in her highchair and took the wrappers off both of the Tootsie Pops and let her go to town on them..I have never seen a tongue lick so fast in my life! Her excitement was so fun to watch! After the lollipops, she wanted try chocolate for the first time...she had a few bites of a Hershey's bar and loved it! She really had a great time and we can't wait for the years to come!
