Trick or Treat

Today was Heidi's first time to go Trick or Treating. She's just over 2 years old so we thought it was time for her to experience her first trick or treating. We were a little surprised when our doorbell rang at 6:30 with the sounds of kids yelling "trick or treat". So we got Heidi dressed in her Pumpkin Princess costume to go score some candy. Before she could leave, I had to get my pictures... after all I am the mommy and it's my right to take as many pictures of her life as I want.

Heidi and her daddy took off to go trick or treat. Noah stayed home with me to pass out candy. Noah and I sat outside and gave out candy as the kids came to the house. Noah was happy sitting in his stroller watching all the kids. We also got to watch Heidi and her daddy walk from house to house. It was adorable and my heart melted as I watched her. After about 30 minutes Noah was done sitting in his stroller. It was his bedtime and his little body was telling him to start fussing. At the same time I saw Heidi and Ben start walking home. It was perfect timing. When the two got home Ben took Noah inside to feed him his bottle and put him to bed. Heidi stayed with me to hand out the rest of the candy.

While handing out candy Heidi dug into her pumpkin to see her treats. She had a few non-candy items so we opened those to eat. She started with fruit snacks and said "this is my favorite snack". Then we opened the pretzels and guess what, "this is my favorite snack". After the pretzels we opened a lollipop. It was her first lollipop. I told her to eat it like a popsicle and she slowly licked the lollipop. She never finished it, just licked it for a while. Eventually she was done and ready for bed. Now both kids are in bed and Ben and I are watching college football. It was a fun Halloween and I can't wait till next year when both kids will be going trick or treating with their daddy.
