In preparation for T-day Viv went to Walmart to pick up essentials. I'm not sure what kind of food isn't essential tomorrow and everyone else seems to feel the same as the crowds were crazy big. As a result the bananas were gone early on and the ones used to restock were way too green for fruit salad. Then Viv found these little gems. They taste like normal bananas, but are much smaller. Our proudest monkey seemed to like them quit a bit.... until she bit into the bitter peel.

So Riley has learned a new skill this past week..... Crawling! Is it good or bad? She can now get where she wants, but that means she goes where we don't want. We have to keep an eye on her now cause she'll get into anything and everything.


Here's the end result of crawling. Like I said, I'm not sure if we are excited or anxious.

Since mom and dad went to bed early, I thought I'd give you an update on how Halloween went. Basically all you need to know is 3 things: dad ate all my candy, I hated all 3 (YES 3!) Halloween costumes, and dad ate all my candy. Bet you can guess how much I love this holiday.
You are also probably asking why I had 3 different costumes. Well my mom is in charge of the Halloween event for the Children's Museum of Denver. It is a 3 day event called Trick or Treat Street. (Which was a huge success by the way!) Since it took her so much planning and she was at the museum all day for 3 days, dad thought it would be a good idea for me to wear a different outfit each day. Here's a peek of what I went through.

Here I am in my favorite pink bear outfit. You may remember this one from before. As you can tell by the look on my face I'm excited to be here.
I was so excited that I dropped the candy from my first house on the floor.
Day 2 brought on the lady bug outfit that was hiding in a box in the closet. It could have kept hiding as far as I was concerned.

Finally here is my spider outfit that I borrowed from my friend Spencer. I'm actually smiling because I don't have to wear these things for a whole year. This was taken shortly before I found out that dad ate all my candy. When that news came the smile quickly disappeared.
Maybe next year won't be so bad if I get to go trick or treating by myself so dad won't eat my candy.
