As you can see she made a darn cute Jeannie, if I do say so myself. Everyone thought she was so adorable and there wasn't another Jeannie in sight which always makes me happy. She had so much fun as usual. This kid really enjoys events and activities. She just jumps right in.

Here she is before we left the house right after her nap and lunch. We first got her picture taken at a local photo studio that was doing drop in Halloween pictures. I figured I'd try that before with the hopes of getting one good one with her hat on. The only problem is she was more scared of the studio than she was anywhere else. I deliberately didn't take her anywhere set up for older kids or where there would be "scary" things because she's been freaking out at stores since the Halloween stuff has been out (which was like Valentines Day right!) Anyway, after that we went first to a small local mall to meet some friends and see how she would do. She was pretty timid at first but very quickly warmed up to it and would even say "kik -oh-kret" and always "hank u." Very sweet.

And the HAT...it was a pain from the beginning. She didn't want to wear it for the longest time. My child who won't sit on her potty chair without a hat on wouldn't wear the hat whenever I tried the costume on her or we practiced Trick or Treating. I also have been rigging it since I got it in the mail 6 weeks ago. The hat they sent was just cloth so I have stitched and then stapled cardboard in it and then added a neck strap to keep it on but of course she was pulling it off or it got caught or whatever. But the hat is what makes the costume so I actually ended up bribing her to wear it. I swore I was never going to be one of "those" moms and there I was in the parking lot of the mall telling her they wouldn't give her any candy if she didn't wear the hat. So wait, that makes me a liar as well because I had to give her an "M" to get her to keep it on. Bad Mommy!
