Happy Halloween!

Chloe Cadabby!
This year you were still too young to really "get" what halloween was all about.  So, I was lucky enough to pick your costume again this year.  You had been a lover of Sesame Street for most of 2012 and so I chose the beautiful & silly Abby Cadabby as your costume.  Abby Cadabby is a fairy who is always messing up her magic and turning things into pumpkins.  Despite her shortcomings, she is SO lovable!  I love the idea of a character that is so full of imperfections but is still adored.  I think it mostly gives me hope as a person and especially a mother to know that I don't need to be "perfect."
I'm determined to be one of those moms that makes each and every halloween costume-- I'm not sure how that will hold up in future years but I'll certainly try!  This costume was even a little challenging.  I much prefer having a step-by-step pattern but I think it turned out pretty cute anyways.  You are what made it perfect!



 
We had a wonderful time at the Zoo Boo the weekend before Halloween. 
Then, on Halloween, we did the trunk or treat at church where we got to see many of your friends and family.
After that we did a neighborhood near the church and you got LOADS of candy.  You were a pro-trick or treater by night's end and I'm certain that next year you will know EXACTLY what we do for Halloween.
It was a blast!
Love you babe!
Mom
