I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween. R had a great time trick-or-treating. The kids both got decked out right after dinner for a photo shoot--it's harder than you might think to get two kids to look at the camera and smile!

I was all set to delete this picture from the camera--R is getting upset with RUS because he was grabbing at her wings--except for the fact that I fell in love with RUS's smile in it. I have a hard time getting pictures of him with this smile, and he smiles so much you wouldn't think it'd be that hard!

All along she's been adamant that she wanted to be a butterfly for Halloween, and because J and I like to get the kids involved in "making" their own costumes, we had her make her wings. J cut out the shape from foam board and R decorated them herself with markers and glittery glue. Here's a video of her decorating them! For awhile she also wanted her BLUE butterfly to have an orange mask, so J made one for her out of orange felt and pipe cleaners, but all 3 times we got decked out in the costume, when it came down to it she didn't want to wear the mask. I wrapped pipe cleaners around one of her headbands to make antennae, and the tutu I ordered online, I just love it! It's going to be a great addition to the dress-up box post-Halloween.
Beautiful work R!!
