It's A Halloween to Remember....

Last year was Arianna's first Halloween. But it sucked! *excuse my language. Yes, it was not the best at all. I had to attend an academic conference in Atlanta the entire day. Who does this? Academics tend to procreate beyond the thousand word reflection papers and presentations. Unfortunately, they did not care that I'd just had a baby, loss my dad, and wanted to spend time trick-or-treating through my neighborhood. Such is life. So, my mom accompanied me to Atlanta to watch Arianna. Hubby had to work, of course. But I was determined to do something - anything. So, I dressed her up in her little pumpkin outfit. She was soooo cute. I was stopped in the hotel and in the parking lot of the mall. I'd heard that Lenox Mall would have something. (When I lived in Atlanta, I only shopped at Phipps Plaza bc Lenox was just toooo busy to say the least:) Nothing was going on in the mall. Then I had to turn around and drive back downtown for more sessions.

This year, we have a full weekend planned. Right now it's 4am and I'm awake catching up on homework because we were out at two play dates already in her Halloween costume. We have at least 3 events tomorrow (probably will only do 1-2 of them). Then we have 2 more events on Monday. With that said, I cannot believe she can still fit her costume from last year...LOL! It's a 6-12mo costume from Gymboree. I love my little mini mama. She's about the only person in my family that's petite - ok, except my beautiful older sister graced with the metabolism of fly (three beautiful children and a size 2).
So, check out her little outfit. This is just costume number one. The second costume will be posted Monday evening.

In all that you do, be safe this weekend.
