Aubree's very first adventure in trick or treating! We went to her Uncle Benny's to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather. No need for a jacket!! This is wonderful considering I was worried at how we'd keep our little Bug toasty. Luckily we thought ahead enough to borrow a wagon from Bree's Meme and Papa L in case she got tired. Lord knows carrying this one, as small as she is would surely wear on us.
Fast forward to the cutest kitty you've ever seen! We went with the kitty costume because every time Aubree sees a cat, she squeals with excitement...no joke. Sure, she loves dogs, but cats are elusive...at least to a toddler!
We trekked the neighborhood of Uncle Benny and Aunt Cole and had a good old time. We attempted to let her walk on her own (she's been walking pretty good for the past couple of weeks). Between the uneven grass and slightly sloped driveways, we had a heck of a time. Each time she'd get a goodie in her pumpking basket, she'd dive right in eager to see what she could play with next. Bob and I resorted to dumping it (under a blanket) in her wagon to hide it. Luckily she was too busy watching kids go by. I was surprised at how quickly she got the hang of walking up to a stranger's house, giving that arresting grin and getting candy. Amazing how fast kids can pick up on that sort of thing. She had a good time chewing on a few select (*ahem* hard to open) candy bars and even got her very first sucker, which she quickly got tired of.
At the end of the night our little kitty cat was tuckered. We had a great time with our girl's first go at trick or treating. And after seeing her ride in style, it makes me wonder why they don't have some sort of wagon for adults....
