Halloween with our little ladybug

Lizzie went trick or treating for the first time this year. She was a trooper. At the first house she cried when we took her out of her wagon. She loves her wagon and she just thought that we were going for a walk in a silly outfit. As you can tell by the pictures, she was fine when she realized that she had candy in her basket. We only made it to 5 houses, but that was perfect. We just went to some of the friends houses in the neighborhood and by the time we were done it was already time for dinner and a bath. It really flew by fast.
She loves these silly squeeky shoes. She will stomp in them just so she can hear them squeak. The great thing is that I can change the bows to make them match anything so we had in red to match her costume.
When we got home she had to pull out each piece of candy one by one and put them on the floor. You would have thought that she knew what candy was and that we were actually going to let her eat it. When I finally got the candy put up, she just kept looking in her bag for it. It is now 3 days later and she still looks in the bag for it. It is very cute.
As for Cody and I, we did not dress up for Halloween and we had lights out by 9pm. We are tired parents after nights like that. We apologize to all those that invited us to Halloween parties that we did not attend. We thought that we would just try to hang around the house and have fun with our little ladybug and we don't regret that idea at all. We enjoy her so much.
I am now exactly 12 weeks pregnant and it has been over a week since I have had any morning sickness. I hope that I am not jinxing myself, but we will see.
Cody is still the hero of our house and is doing so much to help Lizzie and I that sometimes I feel like he is completely and hole heartedly doing it all. He is the best husband and father in the world and I love every minute with him.
