Kinsley's 1st Halloween!

It was an absolutely beautiful Fall weekend for our little lady bug's first Halloween! And, by the way, our "little" lady bug is now a whopping 17lbs, 4.4oz! She had so much fun! Er, should I say, the lady bug's mom and dad had so much fun. I am not sure that babies actually have "fun" on Halloween until they are 1 or 2 yrs old. I mean, up until that time, it's just crazy mommy dressing up baby in a silly - yet adorable - costume over and over again and snapping lots and lots of photos. And the babies aren't even being rewarded with candy yet...just rice cereal, a bottle, or puree'd veggies or fruit. But none of that seemed to bother our baby girl...just another "first" to check off on her list...I mean, mommy's list.

So, happy 1st Halloween Kinsley! There will surely be many more candy-filled Halloween's to come, complete with lots of Kit-Kat's, Twix bars, BabyRuth's, and Reece's Pieces to share with your mom and dad. :)

Until then, a few photos from the weekend...

Starting off the weekend on Friday: Kinsley got to come to work with me for Newell's "family day"...all of the fun was too much for her as she took a nap beside my desk.

Friday night dinner and playdate over at Heather and Jason's so the girls could play!

Kinsley and Leighton all dressed-up in their costumes!

Kinsley and her best bud, Hunter...ready for all of the trick-or-treaters!

Her look is priceless!

Lovin' the cool Fall grass.

Our happy baby girl!

All smiles!

And I ended up making my first batch of oven-roasted pumpkin seeds. Umm, new favorite snack? Yes, please.

Happy Halloween!
