Getting ready for Christmas

Here is how we got ready for Christmas. We put up the tree and visited with Santa.

Dad and I also made a gingerbread house which we promptly ate. Why leave it around for the roaches to take over? 

We also had this great Christmas celebration at our local park. They had fake snow (bubbles & a smoke machine at the same time- awesome), Santa, hula and a picture booth. 

We're sorry for the delay in posting something but Mom needed a bit of a break. Now she's back or at least for 9 or so weeks until I become a big sister.

Look closely

If you look closely in these pictures from Halloween, you'll  notice that something is very different. Can anyone discover what it is? 

I love being a shark!

Don't worry- I didn't really eat my neighbor, Fernando.

Now the best part of Halloween.

Did anybody figure out what's different? Look closely at Mom's strategically placed pumpkin. That's right. In about 18 weeks, I'll be a big sister. Yeah!!!

Mom forgot

Mom forgot to post 2 videos from the pumpkin patch. She said that this is the reason for the saying "Never work with children or animals."

It's almost Halloween!

In the spirit of Halloween, we wanted to show off the decorations that we have at our house as well as the trip we made to the pumpkin patch. 

First our very Halloween-y decorations.

Ghosts with my hands

Pumpkin sticker faces

Then we hit up the pumpkin patch. I loved going with Baby Hoku who I just adore. I saw chickens and goats and I even saw my friend Arianna there. Plus we got to go on a hayride with a huge John Deere tractor. Now Grandpa needs to get his tractor going so I can take rides on the wheels like Mom used to do.

Mom says it looks like I'm constipated.

Today we had trick or treat at the library like last year. I love the library. They are the best. Yes I am a shark again this year, but that was totally my choice.

Ok enough. I'll get back with you after Halloween when I have even more pictures.

Pali Lookout

Dad had the brilliant idea to take us to Pali Lookout one hot Sunday afternoon because it's much cooler than in our house. Thank you Daddy.  (I think Mom was the most excited about the cool breezes though.)

Don't worry. That's not us in the yellow & red shirts although Dad wanted to go.

(Tried to get her talking but you can only really hear it at the end.)

Posing or not

I have decided that I like to pose for pictures. Here are some of my most recent ones.

with the door shut??

with mom

I look pretty old!

 

 Just look what mom found me doing the other day. She was very surprised but decided to grab the camera before she stopped my fun.

 Next up Halloween decorating.
