Private is dumb...and here's some pictures...
Cheeseball pic #1. Her Princess Belle costume wasn't ready in time for the Travelodge Halloween party, so she wore one of her dresses she got from grandpa Tom and was a princess.
Cheeseball pic #2.
Checking out the dead guy. Big surprise, she was fascinated with him and constantly went back to see him.
Proof that one cupcake is definitely enough for a four year old.
I can't help myself. Isabella will hate me one day.
Working on the pumpkin.
The finished pumpkin. It's 3 bats. I thought it was a bat with legs at first. I was wrong.
Dance class on Halloween.
The bear hunt song. This is probably my favorite part of dance class now. The little girl in the snow white dress is the teachers daughter. I'm guessing she was there because they were going trick-or-treating afterwards. I'm not sure how old she is, but she's super adorable.
Halloween dance class picture. Not everyone was there. The little girl standing up in the Little Mermaid costume is a good friend of Isabella's from school.
Eating some Dot's and posing for pics before trick-or-treating in Mayville.
She's off!
Surprisingly, it doesn't look like that much candy, but it was definitely more than enough for Bellbell. Plus, auntie Kayla and Kacey gave her an entire bucket of candy. Unfortunately, they gave her a million tootsie rolls which is one of my favorites so that sucked trying not to eat all of those. We let her have one or two pieces of candy a day for about a week after Halloween. Then the "Candy Fairy" came and took her candy and gave her a couple small presents in return. I'm pretty sure I got the idea from tv or something, and Doug thought it was a good idea too. I can't handle having a bunch of candy in the house because I hate trying to stop myself from eating it, and I get annoyed when Isabella constantly asks if she can have candy if she does something. For example, she can have a piece of candy if she eats dinner, or goes poop, or takes a nap, or picks up her toys. I'm not comfortable with using it for bargaining. The candy fairy thing worked. The candy is "gone" (it's in our closet cuz' I can't throw out tootsie rolls) and Isabella isn't asking for it anymore.
Wearing Aprils wig. For some reason she didn't want her picture taken, so I took this one as she was walking away. It made me think of an old jewish grandma going into the kitchen to make spaghetti. I don't know. Whatever. It kind of creeps me out.
Old jewish woman before Nair.
Getting ready to paint the skull they made.
Finished skull Isabella made with daddy. I was impressed.
Isabella showing off her press-on nails she got from grandma Lesa for her birthday. She was super excited about putting them on, but once she realized she couldn't really do anything with them on she got frustrated. They lasted for about 10 minutes before they were ripped off. I still remember being little and wearing press-on nails and then trying to play with legos. I think over half of them fell off before I finally got frustrated enough to just rip them off. I bet if you look in the old Lego's bucket you'd find a few ripped off nails. :)
She wanted me to take pictures of her blowing bubles. This was the best I could get out of like 30 pictures.
My art farts. I didn't take this pic. Doug must've set up the camera to take their pic. Doug is awesome and lets me sleep in on the weekends and still was thoughtful enough to take a pic of them for me. He deserves some jello cake.
One of the last days Isabella could play outside without freezing. Mainly I'm posting this because I love the outfit Bellbell picked out. Her ladybug dress, brown leggings from a different dress, socks and tennis shoes, and a green sweatshirt/coat, and as always her sunglasses. :)posted by Karissa (mommy) | 10:42 PM
