MORE Halloween Fun!!!

Last night, Daddy helped me and Jaydlie carve our pumpkin! When Mommy asked me what I wanted the pumpkin to look like, I said a SMILEY face!! Mommy asked if I wanted it to be scary, and I said no.




Unlike last year, I wasn't scared to get dirty and stick my hand inside the pumpkin! I helped get all the seeds and gunk out! And guess what?! Daddy washed them and roasted them in the oven. I LOVE eating pumpkin seeds!
Yum!

This is me with the final pumpkin. It didn't take too long, and I think it is so cool!

Here are the three of us, even though Jayde wouldn't stick her hand into the pumpkin. I'll have to teach her for next year!




This is the pumpkin in the dark, isn't it cool?! I can't wait to put it outside tomorrow for all our neighbors to see while we go trick-or-treating!

A Halloween Party!

This past weekend, we went to a Halloween party! I got to wear my costume, which I have decided that I am going to be an elephant again! The costume still fits me really well and I got excited when Daddy and Mommy asked if I wanted to wear my elephant costume one more time before I got too big for it. Anyway, it was the BEST homemade costume there!




I got to eat some yummy snacks and play cool games. JJ dressed up in my old costume, as a chicken! Everyone thought she was pretty cute too.

Here I am doing some neat arts and crafts. They had foam picture frames and stickers that we could decorate them with to go on the fridge! I made one and so did Mommy.





This is me playing pin the nose on the pumpkin. I think that I did pretty well!
Mommy and Daddy are trying to teach me what Halloween is about and what I should do when we go trick-or-treating. We have decided to go around the neighborhood this year instead of going to the mall. Then, afterwords, we were invited to another party at my friends house! We will get to bob for apples and play in our costumes. It will be so much fun!



So, in the spirit of Halloween (and just because I like to), I decided to sing you a song about a SPIDER! Enjoy!

"What Did He Just Say?!"

Well, it's pretty boring around here again. All four of us came down with colds over the weekend. Yuck! The weather turned cold! It's down in the low 50's at night and the 70's during the day.

I guess there is one thing that happened that's kind of funny. Last night Mommy was eating a lemon ice and I wanted one. She began telling me, "No, it's really icky, you don't want any." I knew she was only saying that because she didn't want to share!! When Mommy started making faces and saying how yucky it was,

I simply said, "Okay, it's yucky... I'll eat it then!"

And I snatched it from her! I'm just too smart and her tricks don't work on big boys like me!

"It's Growing"

This is my new haircut... I thought it was fun at first for Daddy to cut my hair, but then when I looked in the mirror, I got really sad. I kept saying, "Daddy cut it off", "I need to put it back on." Mommy was very sad because I was sad. They kept telling me that I shouldn't have cut my own hair first.

I was feeling so sad about my hair, that Daddy said I could shave his head, so that we would look the same. That made me feel lots better! Daddy and Mommy kept telling me that I am not allowed to cut my own hair, or anyone elses hair except for this one time.

Here we are with our buzzed heads! Mommy kept telling me that my hair will grow back. Now, everytime they ask me, "Eli, where's you hair?!"
I say, "It's growing."
