I found my trick-or-treat bag and got into the little "Hershey's" chocolate bar. Yummy! It was so good. This is what my adoptive mom found when she found me. She laughed and laughed. 
My adoptive dad is trying to take my picture and I think that I'm in trouble. But I wasn't, they just thought it was cute and wanted a picture.
Friday was our neighboorhood trunk-or-treat. I knew just what to do. I carried my black basket around and when people gave me candy, I flashed a big smile and put it in my basket. I wouldn't let my mom help me carry it even after it got to heavy. I'm a big girl and I can do it by myself....
Yummy - a sucker with paper. In my adoptive parents defense they tried to take it off, but I liked it better with the paper on....
Can I just eat the pretzels, please? While my adoptive dad hands out candy to the other kids.
We carved our Jack-O-Lantern today. I really didn't like the stuff they pulled out of the pumpkin. I'd rather just do my own thing - thank you very much!
Mostly, I just wanted to run in the halls since I'd been in a car for 4 hours! But it was fun to see other kids and run, run, run!
I was really tired and would not give up my binky or eat lunch.
Here is one of the few times that I looked at my mom while running around...
Here is a pic of my great grandma and grandpa Miller. They live in ID and the only other time I've seen them was on our way home from Yellowstone Park this past summer. They were sure happy to see me and my mom though! (my dad stayed home to take care of some stuff). After we got home, my mom wished we'd have taken a little more time to visit with them and take a generational picture - she isn't sure how much longer they will be around.
I am getting so big! I'm almost taller than my bear! Can you believe it? Don't you love my bath hair? It's one of my best hair-do's yet!
It's okay momma - I can get it! I will give the bear hugs and kisses then you can put him away until next time. I love to give hugs (and sometimes kisses) to everything. I even hug and kiss dolls, trucks, phones, etc. I'm just a loving kid (he,he,he).
I stayed with Kristen, Alexis, and Jordyn on Oct 15th while my adoptive parents were at work. It was so much fun! I got to make a picture to take home. My mom thought it was a precious jewel and she said she wanted to take it to work, but I think secretly my dad wants it on his wall. Guess that's why it's still in my room...maybe they'll put in on the fridge next week. I'll have to work on that won't I?
On Friday, a few guys came and cut down the trees in our backyard. I was so interested in what they were doing and the noise that they were making. It was fun to watch! But our backyard looks soooo different. Not sure how I"ll play in the shade next summer - my adoptive mom says that's my adoptive dad's job to figure out....
I love bathtime! It's my favorite part of the day :)
Check out my hair - Beautiful, ain't it!
I love my crazy hair. It's really fun and it makes people smile.
I didn't do it - I promise. ;)
I was testing to see if this hair-do would stay in. It did. Mom did a good job with this one!
I love the Yogurt in a tube. I can feed myself and of course make a big mess. Ya!
Just talking away on my Little Mermaid car that I got for my birthday from my Gramma Hiedi. It's my favorite toy and I just discovered that I can make it move backwards! Yea for me!
I've been making this face for a week or so. I roll my tongue around my mouth and make noise. It's silly and it always makes people laugh! I really want to talk so people can understand me, but so far all I can get out is a bunch of noise and squeals (my adoptive parents don't like the latter very much).
Why can't everyone just understand that I can do it myself! I am a big girl and I know how to do lots of stuff! In the picture above, I am feeding myself. It was lots of fun - even if I did make a really big mess!
I love Ice Cream Cones!!! They are so yummy.... but they are also very cold - Brrrr! I love to eat the ice cream until I stick my hand in the cone to get the ice cream out and realize how cold it is. Then I get upset and have to give it to my adoptive mom or dad. It's just to cold!
I recently learned that I can put on shoes all by myself - of course, they aren't mine, but I can do it. I try to walk in my adoptive dad's shoes, but they are almost as big as me. I sure do have fun trying, though!
In my toy box, I found this pair of sunglasses. They are just my size! I want to put them on and wear them, but sometimes (see below) I can't quite get it right. My adoptive parents help me put them on but I take them right back off so I can try again. They tell me that I am very independent. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I am not sure yet.
In the last week, I also blow on all the food before I put it in my mouth. I don't want it to be hot.
