Since we live on a county road with no other kids around and don't get any trick or treaters, we decided to travel down to spend the weekend with family and provide a real trick or treating experience for Maylee. On Saturday, Maylee got to play with cousin Jaxson who is six weeks younger than she is and we also got to see the new twin preemie cousins. Maylee didn't get jealous when Kev or I held one of the twins. She liked to give them little pats on the back to help burp them. This picture shows perspective...Tessa is about six pounds (up from her 1 lb 13oz birth weight) and 12 weeks old.
We brought her special wooden bike down for her to play with at Aunt Betty's and she did a great job of sharing it with her cousins.
She also found mini pumpkins at Aunt Betty's and brought them to me saying "puh-puh"...I was proud of her since these pumpkins were not exactly like her pumpkins at home!
Jaxson and his mama Tonya came over to see Grandma Julie's new house. Maylee and Jaxson played really well together...
Since Halloween was on Sunday this year, Grandma Julie let Maylee wear her cow costume to church (given the choice between a dress or the cow - Maylee chose the cow, she always chooses the cow). People at church thought she was a cute little cow. Here she wanted the cow on over her pajamas and the next picture was taken right before church...
She also wore a hand-me-down costume from her older cousins for part of the day. Here kitty, kitty...
We did some trick or treating and then spent some time at Aunt Betty's with cousins. Maylee would walk up to doors and then want to go inside the houses. She understood the idea of getting candy and that candy is food but she didn't want to put it in her bag...just hold it. She actually sucked so hard on the mini chocolate candy bar Grandma Julie gave her that some chocolate started to come out of the seams!
