Halloween 2017

Happy Halloween!! We had a busy and fun-filled day yesterday. The morning started out with a Halloween party at Gabriella's school. I was one of the parent volunteers so I got to spend the morning with her class running some of the games we had made. We had pumpkin bowling, catch the pumpkin balloon, and a candy corn ring toss game. It was absolutely adorable and I loved seeing Gabby interact with her teachers and classmates. Every once in awhile she'd look around to find me and give the biggest smile.

Once Gianni was home, we had pizza and chips for dinner and then he headed out with her to do some trick-or-treating. Elliot was dressed up for a few minutes but he is ready for bed these days by 6:30 so we kept him home. Gabby was in heaven dressed up as Cinderella and she insisted that Gianni wear a crown too and be a prince. It was so cute! They were out for about 45 minutes, hit up all the neighbors, and then came home with a tired but very happy girl. This is the first year that she really understands holidays so her excitement over Halloween has us really looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas!

And our little lion started out November with his first tooth! We knew it was close but this morning he woke up and his first little tooth has broken through his gums. It's his bottom tooth and he has spent all day rubbing his tongue over it. He handled it like a champ and besides drooling like a dripping faucet and chewing on everything, he hasn't been complaining. Love these little milestones!

Happy November!
