Halloween Lovers Unite!

Halloween tree ornaments; skulls, owls, cats, pumpkins,
bats, spiders, and centipedes, oh my!

Elise picked out this Living Dead Doll,
Calico, to keep Halloween watch over the house :)

Medusa and Bones

My favorite time of year is upon us yet again; Halloween time. I must say that we have two huge Halloween lovers on our hands. Both the girls loved helping decorate for Halloween, and neither of them are spooked by all the ghosts, ghouls, skulls, bats, bugs, spiders, severed heads, dead dolls, etc; they embrace it all. In fact, we added two new spooks this year, Medusa and maniacal clown baby. Alina loves the clown baby, she chooses it over her sweet baby dolls. I think it most likely has to do with the fact that it shakes, giggles and laughs hysterically when you press its belly. She has no idea that it looks demented, she cuddles and hugs it just like the other babies :) haha...can we say future Halloween lover!
 
I've also had a bit of fun devising some creative Halloween treats for the girls (with a little inspiration from Pinterest, of course). Ghost bananas and kiwi Frankensteins were a few of the girls' favorites. I tried to keep the treats as healthy as possibly, considering that the girls will be getting enough of a candy fix come Halloween. We also have been setting aside a half hour a night for Halloween coloring and art projects. Elise's favorite has been decorating foam pumpkins with stickers. She likes to make one each night. It's so fun that she is now at the age to really enjoy craft projects! We're looking forward to a month full of Halloween fun and festivities.
