We're knee deep in Halloween 2012!
It's fun celebrating with a toddler who seems to understand the concept of dress-up. I've been able to suit her up as both Pepples Flinstone and a fish without complaint.
Saturday night Elle and Vanessa hosted a fun Halloween party where Kevin, myself, Abigail, Dan, Anne, and Henry went as The Flintstones. It was so much fun going as a group, and the kids had a great time at the party; playing with drum sticks, dinosaurs, and party straws.
Two pre-party pictures of the gang:
Abigail and Henry partied until 10:30pm! Abigail loved watching everyone dance in the dining room (we even joined for a bit). She would sit on her knees, rocking back and forth, and smile from ear to ear. It was adorable.
She also attempted to ride Henry earlier in the night. I look over and there's Henry crawling around, Abigail positioned by his side, one leg up over his back. I guess he looked sturdy enough ;)
Last year I was on a picture taking spree, but with Abigail glued to my hip this time, I only managed a few pirated Facebook pictures (thanks Erin!)

We continued our celebrations with a PEPS Halloween party at Kristin & Maeve's today.
Abigail was a fish, Brogan was a bear (complete with a "rawr"), Griffin was an Olympic Medalist (complete with metals and a bouquet), Oonagh was a unicorn, Jake was a monkey, and Maeve was a flower.
You just wanna squeeze 'em!

Abigail's best bud. She and Brogan share a love for food.
Today I traded off feeding them Mac and Cheese- bite for bite |

| Doggy! Otherwise known as "A-Ca!" |
Then it was time for the group picture....
At least we tried...
Before leaving, Kristin handed out goody bags for the kids. Two monster toys, some stickers, and a snack bar.
Abigail's favorite was the sticker- she ate it.

Tonight we gear up for Halloween 2012: Part 2.
Kevin decided his Fred Flinstone
mu mu dress is the most comfortable thing ever, so we'll be donning our Flinstone costumes at Mamie and Papa's tomorrow night, then Thursday we've got one last party at Preschool.
These babies really know how to pack in the Halloween fun, so stay tuned!
