Halloween Adventures

We picked Raina up from daycare one day, and she was painted as a cat. She loved her face paint and she absolutely refused to let us take it off. Bath time was a struggle, and she had kitty markings for quite a long time.

On the drive home from daycare one day, Raina pronounced "I want to be a pink snake for Halloween." Here is the result: pink hat and mittens, pink shirt, pink overalls, pink tail (and a pink candy bag). She also hissed at people for good measure!

Raina really got into Halloween this year; it was the first time she really understood what was happening. We went to lots of houses, and she was proud to show off to everyone.

Here is a great show of Raina's tail, and also of our wonderful neighbor Susan.
Check out Raina's candy largesse! She came home and organized and counted it all. We were not able to trick her into donating her candy to the Halloween candy bowl this year! We suddenly had to deal with all of this candy specifically allocated to Raina, when, in fact, we never had allocated sweets of any kind to her before. She went sugar crazy! Something had to change.

Enter the Great Pumpkin. The Great Pumpkin came and took all of Raina's Halloween candy and left this absolutely wonderful (and hand-selected by Raina) pink and orange comforter in its place. Raina was thrilled with the comforter, and we were thrilled to be rid of Raina's candy!
