Hello Tumble, Good-Bye Thumb-sucking

This is Elyse's new favorite toy that I was more than happy to buy her. I told her if she could stop sucking her thumb for 2 weeks we could go to Toys R Us and pick out a toy that she wanted. Well, she saw this Fur Real dog on T.V. and really wanted it so she was very motivated. I am so proud to say that she is DONE sucking her thumb. I can't believe that she broke the habit but she tried really hard and was very determined, quite the feat for a 3 year old. She doesn't even do it at night anymore, way to go Elyse!!

Halloween 2008

Elyse and Paige ready for Halloween storytime

I am not sure why these are backwards, but oh well! Elyse loved having make-up on for her costume. She was so excited to go around the neighbourhood.

Paige wasn't so thrilled with the whole thing to begin with but she loved it once we got going.

We went to the mall during the day and had a great time. Bruce and Alida were there with the boys too. Paige, Connor and Elyse got quite the haul.

The girls eating their treats

Paige was pretty excited to discover that all of things we had been getting were candy! She was chewing right through the packaging to get to the chocolate.

The girls were too cute treat or treating. They both loved it and what an amazing night! The weather was so warm, it made for a great Halloween night.
