Ok so this is late in posting, much like everything in my life right now is late. I blame it on everyone but me! Haha. Anyway, poor Aspen was her monkey again this year. My plan of having Mia be the monkey and not having to get two new costumes every year did not work out. Mia is barely in 9 month clothes and that costume was 18-24months. So it drowned Mia and was a bit too small for Aspen. But I was just too late in making a decision on costumes....by the time I went out costume shopping, there was nothing cute. And I had a ladybug costume that my cousin gave us last year that didn't fit either one of them, but it was fine for Mia this year. So Aspen was a monkey again and Mia was a ladybug. I'm probably the lamest mom around. But they were both pretty darn cute! And Aspen REALLY got the hang of trick or treating REALLY quickly. Here's Mia in the monkey - way too big!
So, we went to a trunk-or-treat Friday night and Aspen had a fantastic time with that. Mia was more interested in just walking around with her pumpkin than actually getting candy. I have no pictures of that night. Because I am a lame mom. Or maybe cuz Malo wasn't with us and I only have two arms. :)
Then Saturday night, Malo took the girls trick-or-treating on our street and I stayed home and passed out candy.
Well, they were only gone maybe 15 minutes - Malo said Aspen after a few houses just sat on the ground and wanted to eat her candy! She was done! So they came home and we all passed out candy to the TONS of trick or treaters! Apparently our new street gets the most trick or treaters in town. Aspen I think had just as much, if not more, fun passing out candy to the kids who came to our door. She's so funny. Everytime the bell rang she'd say "OH! Its the door!" and run as fast as she could to the door. And she'd comment on the costumes, "oh you kitty cat. meow!" "Oh you so pretty" to the princesses. And my favorite....this boy who was probably 9 or 10 had a mask on and she says "OH! You too scared!!!" And he looked at her and said "I'm not scared." to which she replied, "yeah, uh-huh. you too scared!" He was seriously offended! Ha! But really she was trying to tell him he's scary. She just says it scared. It still makes me laugh how defensive the poor kid was. I could've told him what she meant...but I didn't.
Anyway, I didn't get pictures of trick-or-treating either since I didn't go with them, and it was hard to get any of the girls together. But we had a fun time. And here is what I have....
Mia checking out her loot...
Aspen checking out Mia's goodies
The girls happily enjoying their candies....
...until Aspen steals Mia's sucker right out of her mouth....
And that's it. Sorry kiddos that mommy wasn't more on top of things this year. But hey...they still had fun. :)

Never too late to share cute pictures. Your girls are adorable!! I'm loving the last picture. That would be something Aubri would do and Mia looks so upset! Too CUTE!
I made Jaxon wear the same costume two years in a row, and he's already around 4. I'll join you in the lame mom group. Plus, I still don't have any pictures from Halloween because I forgot my camera and had to have my family take all the pictures for us. But your girls are so cute! I love when they're just happy with their couple pieces of candy. And that progression and Apsen and Mia and the sucker is hilarious!
My kids reuse costumes all the time. I even buy them a little big so they can wear them two years in a row. This year I had two kids decide they wanted to make their own costumes. How awesome is that? The price of store bought costumes adds up. No matter what your kids are way cute.
Mia is ticked! Love it! Her and Aspen had look adorable. So cute she was done so soon and wanted to dig into her loot ;)
