Hiding Spot and Halloween Update

For Halloween, I took Emery to South Town mall for her first trick or treating experience. Wow, that place was crowded. We got there half way though the trick or treating and half of the stores were already out of candy. I figured it would be mostly babies and toddlers but I was wrong. Emery did ok, but I think next year will be a lot more fun for her. After we passed one store and Emery got one piece of candy, she wanted to sit down to eat the candy. She didn't quite understand that she could get a ton of candy if she just waited. But, we both like to people watch, so we hit up a few stores, got about 10 pieces of candy and enjoyed looking at all of the costumes.

I think she enjoyed helping me hand out candy at home more than her own trick or treating experience though. As kids would come to the door, Emery would stand at the window and say "wow!" to the kids' costumes. I would hand out candy and then close the door. Emery then realized how trick or treating worked and after I closed the door, she came to me asking for candy ;) Below is a picture of all of her loot from her trick or treating at the mall. I told you it wasn't much!

This is Emery's new hiding spot. She loves to sit inside the cupboard and try to close the door on herself. Silly girl!
