Trick or Treat

So for Halloween we were in Downey. I spent the previous night in Preston but since my mom's ward doesn't do the trunk or treat anymore we went to Grandma Zinda's to go actual trick or treating. Earlier Halloween day we went to a birthday part for my friend Jen's little boy and then we headed over to Grandma's. Grandma Z had lots of fun things waiting for Reese. Reese loved doing the bean bag toss Grandma brought home from preschool. She really only actually threw the bean bags like once or twice-- she thought it was more efficient to just walk up and put in the bean bags in the pumpkin holes -- but either way she loved it. Grandma had candy and creepy spider rings for Reese too. Reese went as a tap dancing ladybug this year. I found a pair of tap shoes at the DI and she was in heaven (in case you're wondering LaDawn the pair you gave us is still too big). I needed a pair of black shoes for her costume and everywhere else a pair of black shoes were like $15 (not worth it for just a costume) - so $4 was much better. She loved showing everyone her tapping too.

At the trunk or treat with Grandma - picking out some treats (and she wasn't shy about taking more than one either).

She seriously loved every minute of it. She caught on really quick that you had to say 'Trick or Treat' at each stop.

We caught up with my friend Jen and her little boy Brody too. Reese loves little Brody.

After we made the loop there were doughnuts and cider waiting. Usually Reese doesn't like eating cakes and cookies and things like that but once she had a bite of my doughnut she decided she needed her own. She was covered head to toe in glaze by the time we got home.

All done, coming back to show Grandpa all her goodies. She didn't hesitate when it came to eating her candy either. Todd had to work on Halloween so he missed out on the Trunk or Treat, but I left Reese in her costume so she come home and show Daddy. She knocked on the door when we got home and told Daddy "Trick or Treat" and he had a whole bowl full of smarties waiting for her since Todd had only one trick or treater the whole night. It's kind of sad it's over already. I can't believe it's already November!

So pregnancy update... everything is going great so far (minus getting more and more uncomfortable) this week starts the third trimester, 3 more months and we'll be a family of four!
It seems like forever ago that we found out we were pregnant - but kind of crazy to think he'll be here in a few months. He is very active and I can feel him rolling and kicking around numerous times during the day. We still aren't set on a name - which kind of stresses me out, but at least we have a couple we kind of agree on - so we're making progress.
