It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

We put up our tree yesterday and Scarlett was VERY excited. She kept running around telling puppy "Puppy, look! Christmas tree!!".

She helped put up the tree (sitting in the box!)

And attempted to put on a couple ornaments

She found my Clarice bobble head ("reindeer") and made her kiss the Rudolph ornament on the tree
All done!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Thanksgiving dinner was a success! I single handedly prepared turkey, dressing, stove top (yeah, Cameron HAD to have that too), mashed potatoes, gravy, sweet potato souffle, green bean casserole, cranberry, macaroni and cheese, orange salad, pumpkin pie and dark chocolate mint cheesecake. I think that's all... It was A LOT! But I said if I was going to do it, we were going eat it for 3 days. Cameron and I stuffed ourselves with everything, but Scarlett wouldn't touch anything but mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. Turkey comas ensued:

HAHA...yeah, nice pose by Scarlett. Turkey comas were true for me and Cameron, but Scarlett was on a carb high or something!

Kitty...MEOW!!

American Girl

Here's Scarlett and Bitty Baby sporting their matching outfits. Aren't they the cutest??

Scarlett loves Pandas. And other updates...

Scarlett is officially obsessed with pandas. We saw this little guy in Wal Mart and she gave him the biggest hug and proceeded to kiss all over him the whole way through grocery shopping. I had intended to stash it away for her birthday, but she found him again once we got home and exclaimed "PANDA!" and gave him the biggest hug. So he's hers now. She sleeps with him every night (along with a slew of other stuffed animals and toys...honestly I don't know how she fits in her bed too).

She put him up here to have a snack.

Making out.
Other than being in love with pandas, we haven't been up to much around here. Scarlett and I both had a touch of a cold last week, but we are better now. Scarlett's full on terrible two - refusing to sleep, eat and bathe. Or just about anything else I ask her to do. Good thing she's so darn cute.

We went to the bounce place today and Scarlett had a blast. She LOVES it there. Her favorite today was the gigantic slide. "More slide! More slide!"

Last bit of Halloween

Here's that picture of Scarlett we got taken at the mall. Sorry it's taken me so long to post. Had to get Cameron to scan it. I almost don't know what to do with prints!!

Happy Halloween!

Last night we kicked off the Halloween weekend by carving our pumpkin. Scarlett picked out a ghost, so that's what we made! Scarlett was a little hesitant with the icky insides at first, but then she was a good helper! She never would stick her hand down in the pumpkin though.

Tonight we went to trunk or treat at a local school. It was really cute, although not a big event. There were only about 7 cars there, so it was a disappointment to the bigger kids, but perfect for Scarlett! She thought it was great. She did a great job walking up, saying "treeeeat" and "thank you". She was thrilled with the adults in "scary" masks and we even saw a few "scary men" (Spiderman).
