I was not able to attend Jane Baird's Halloween party, but Alan was! He took lots of pictures for me. As you can see, JB loved the big slide!
Jane B. with some of her classmates. The handsome little guy sitting next to JB is Ethan, her boyfriend. Her sweet friend Maggie is sitting to her left. Alan said he saw JB and Ethan in the corner of the jumpy house tickling each other LOL!
This is my favorite! JB is such a little daredevil!
My sweet grandmother celebrated her 93rd birthday on October 22. We went to Mississippi to celebrate. She would be VERY upset with me if she knew her picture was on my blog for the world to see! We love "Grandma Puddin'" so much!
We took Jane Baird trick-or-treating around our neighborhood. There was not a lot of traffic which was very nice. Jane Baird took this trick-or-treating thing very seriously. She went door to door like it was her business! Our neighbors really hooked her up. She came home with an enormous bag full of candy. She loved walking door to door and ringing the doorbells. She was so cute walking with her treat bag. We all had so much fun! I cannot remember a better Halloween :)
After the pumpkin carving we made cupcakes. Jane Baird loved shaking the sprinkles out all over the cupcake, plate, table and floor. After decorating the cupcakes JB said, "Let's sing happy birthday!" She made Alan light a candle and then we all sang Happy Birthday to Halloween :)
Sunday we finally carved our pumpkin that we got at the pumpkin patch a couple of weeks ago. Jane Baird liked "stirring" the seeds. I forgot to get an after picture but we let JB pick the shapes for the eyes, nose, and mouth. She asked for triange eyes, triange nose and a smiley face with teeth. Can you guess what her favorite shape is?
Saturday night we went to Boo at the Zoo! I tried to get a good picture of her in her costume before we left, but she was being so silly. Oh well! We had a lot of fun at the zoo. Jane Baird's favorite part was riding the train (we waited in line for the train for like an hour).
My clown cowgirl! We went to our church's Halloween party last Wednesday night and JB got her face painted. She picked a clown face. The look on her face when I took her to the mirror was PRICELESS!!!
Dirty face! Jane Baird loves playing outside. The kids are usually outside on the playground when I pick her up from preschool. Jane Baird's face is always filthy dirty when I pick her up. One of her teachers told me that I would just die if I saw some of the things she does on the playground in her pretty little outfits.
Alan has been working out of town A LOT recently. He has been going back and forth to Tampa and Orlando. I think he has worked about 21 days straight with only one day off. JB and I text him pictures when he is gone so he won't forget us.
Ready for school!!!
I was packing Jane Baird's bag for school when she says, "Mommy, look at me!" I turn around and see that she has made herself a "cup holder." She is so creative :)
