We went to Boo at the Zoo, which is essentially trick or treating during the day at the zoo and had a whirlwind yet fun time. I had the cutest tropical fish costume that a friend gave me for Frannie to wear, but she absolutely refused (aka enormous fit) to wear it. So we settled on a purple princess and got a few suckers and fruit snacks along with great people watching and animals too.
It's a good thing we did that because Halloween in Duluth was the coldest in like 5 years or something ridiculous with temps around 35. We opted to stay home and hand out candy to a whopping 10 kids.
She's still loving school and loves doing "big girl" stuff like standing on her stool to brush her teeth at the sink and wash her hands. The potty is a topic of conversation and she's pooped on it twice but we still have a long ways to go.
Her latest obsession is Chapstick. She will carry a tube around with her and just continually put it on. And then when I'm not looking she'll dig in it with her finger and rub it on her hands/the couch/her clothes/etc.
Being outside is still a favorite as well. She doesn't mind the cold and would dig in the dirt, run around, play with her ball, slide and swing, and eat apples of the tree for hours if she could.
I can't get enough of her! I love to see the pictures and I sure hope I get to hear that cartoon voice over Christmas this year!! Keep the stories coming, I love to hear about your adventures!
