Halloween Parties and Mama's Helper

Of course, the post the day after Halloween would not be complete without pictures of Brianna's costume!  She got to wear it to school on Friday and then to the Gawley's annual Halloween bash on Saturday night.  Without further ado, let me introduce you to my little Flight of the Bumblebee!

 

I personally think she's the cutest little bug I've ever seen!  She didn't mind wearing it and seemed to get a kick out of handing out candy to the trick-or-treaters Satuday night.  Of course, Papa Smurf and Smurfette were a little confusing to her.  She couldn't seem to figure out why the heck there were blue people walking around?!?

Now that we've had a few cool mornings, we've gotten out her cute little hoodie outfits that I bought her a few months ago.  I couldn't resist snapping a few pictures of her in this one.  I love the teddy bear ears!

Today being a Sunday, that meant it was laundry day.  Brianna's never been too interested in the laundry basket but she couldn't keep her hands off it this morning.  She kept tipping it over and after a few times of setting it back up, I just let her play to see what she'd do.  Of course, she started pulling everything out of the basket, until she got to the socks at the bottom.  I have no idea what kind of thing my girl has for socks, but once she hit pay dirt in the laundry basket, she was content to sit there and play with her clean socks until I was done folding the rest of her clothes and took them away.

 

 

That covers the weekend in pictures.  We spent the afternoon helping the Parker's warm their new house and simply playing "pull up" with my fingers for as long as she wanted.  This next week's going to be a bit rough for all of us.  Brianna has her 9 month well check Monday morning and then I leave for Minneapolis and don't return till after she's gone to bed Thursday night.  Keep Justin in your thoughts this week...he's got a busy week ahead of him!
