The Sugar High does End...Eventually

Sunday Grace woke up super early, and still full of sugar. She was intent on rummaging through her candy yet again. Then finally started to wind down with her best pal.





Duck Duck Goose


Warning: Picture Overload!!!
Even though this is Grace's 2nd Halloween, this is her first time venturing out to trick or treat. I was so excited for her. She has been getting better with strangers, but she still is very careful, which makes Momma and Daddy very happy. I don't want her to be afraid, but I'm glad she won't just run to anyone on the street.


She is so stinking cute! I can't believe how big she's getting.
Grace seemed to know something was going on, because she didn't want to take a nap at all. She was pretty cranky most of the day, so I was a little worried her costume was going to be accompanied with a major meltdown. She did great! She was so excited to put on her costume and go outside.

Getting ready to go.



This is the first house we went to. In typical Grace fashion, this was the look she gave every stranger.



But once that first piece of candy hit her bucket (which btw I made from scratch) it was on. They still got the "I'm watching you" look but she held that bucket out with confidence.


We only went to a few houses, but once we were done, she kindly handed out candy to other kids. I was really proud of her.
Then it was time get some candy of her own and go inside to look over her loot.
