Daddy seems to always enjoy playing the part of "ask the child loaded questions to see how she responds" and it usually has something to do with me. Go figure. But this time, the table was turned about 90 degrees to be slanted towards brother.
Daddy: Nathan, you sure smile a lot. You practicing that for the girls? You gonna be a Ladies' Man?
Katherine: Daddy, what's a Ladies' Man?
silence from Daddy and slight change of subject
D: Katherine, do you think when brother gets bigger he'll be a Ladies' Man?
K: You mean for Halloween?
Note to self: next year's Halloween costume (while it's still cute and innocent)
Speaking of Halloween, here's the pics:
Our church had a Trunk or Treat. I'd never been to one, or decorated our trunk for one, so we didn't know what to expect.
Our trunk decoration that looks like a cheap Disney shower curtain.
Nathan tolerated this costume for, oh about 2 minutes. (That would be his parents torturing him by forcing a Dumbo costume on him then taking a picture)
Then we were on to costume #2. It was a sweltering 80 degrees at 6pm, so this one only lasted for about 10 minutes. And our beautiful princess Katherine proudly wearing her princess dress for year #2. (Fine with me, didn't cost a thing. Only had to let the 3" hem out from last year)
The usual suspects:
There towards the end, Nathan figured out that the "process" involved taking candy out of one bucket to put in another. So, he started collecting candy from wherever he could find it (sometimes our candy bucket, sometimes sister's bag she worked so hard to fill) and dropping it into passerby's bags, usually without them even knowing it. Here he is very proud of himself to be giving it away to Mrs. B. He was getting lots of praise from Mommy every time he gave some away. You see, Mommy tends to sneak A LOT of candy when children aren't looking, all... day... long... So he was helping the "lose weight" cause that I have pretty much forgotten about.
