This year Halloween was a huge success... except for the hat. Isabel wanted nothing to do with her adorable cowboy hat. That didn't seem to stop people from guessing she was a cowgirl though. To celebrate Halloween at school, the kids planted "magical" pumpkin seeds. When they woke up from nap, their seeds had turned into pumpkins and each kid got to pick one.Then, at home I explained to Isabel that we'd be going out trick-or-treating and that kids would be coming over to our house to get candy. The only part of that story she understood was "kids". She raced over to the window and started shouting "KIDS! KIDS!". I thought she was going to explode she was so excited.
She's a natural trick-or-treater, just like her parents. She wasn't scared going up to strangers and asking for candy, although a few of the older kids' costumes freaked her out. She just walked up to someone's door, batted those big eyes, and took some candy. Then she took a bite of each piece and determined that she doesn't in fact like chocolate. That didn't stop her from taste testing each piece though.
