So this was Love Bug's second Halloween but considering she was only a few weeks old the first time around this year was a bigger deal. As anyone who knows me knows, Halloween is my favorite time of year and I want Love Bug to enjoy it too. This year since she's still pretty young we skipped a big public outing and opted for dressing up, camping out on our front porch and handing out candy to trick-or-treaters. Love Bug was a purple butterfly--that's a bug of sorts so I thought it was fitting. She got a giggle when she saw herself in the mirror but after about half an hour of wearing a somewhat itchy velcro chin strap she began to not find the get-up quite so funny. Then she discovered she had wings and wanted to eat them. Somehow I don't think that's something real butterflies do. Oh well, we'll think of something better next year.
