Well, it should come as no surprise that Gabbie decided that she wanted to be Ariel for Halloween this year! When we first started asking what she wanted to be for Halloween a couple of months ago, she originally said she wanted to be Santa Claus. However, when she started looking at actual costumes, she quickly changed her mind to Ariel.
So here she is, our Little Ariel!
This year was the first year she really had an understanding of what was happening and that made it so much fun! She was so excited to be Ariel and even practiced her Trick or Treating skills by making us practice. She would close the doors in the hallway and Kiley and I had to each retreat to a room. She would knock on the door, say Trick or Treat and then get pretend candy from us.
Our practice paid off and she was an immediate pro when it came time to do it for real!
We almost weren't able to take her since she had come down with Pink Eye the day before. We got her on drops the day of Halloween and the doctor said she would be fine to go
Trick or Treating!
So we took her out and hit a couple of house, one of which was Jodi's, her fabulous babysitter!
We hit it at the perfect time - just as her best friend Trysten showed up!
Trysten is the Super Hero!
Then Gabbie got Jodi's grandkids to sit down and they all sang along to her Ariel necklace.
Prior to Halloween, we tried our hand at Pumpkin Carving again. Gabbie still wasn't to hip on sticking her hand into the goo, but she had a fun time!
Here she is being a ghost!
