Our little pumpkin! What a cutie she is in her Halloween costume (at least we think so!). We went out trick or treating at a few houses but it was already getting pretty dark when we got out there. Natalie seemed a little uneasy with being out with everyone so we didn't go very far. We were able to show Natalie in her costume to Nana, Grandpa, Auntie Kendra, Hayden, Oma and Opa via webcam before she took it off.
Last weekend, I took Natalie to a Halloween costume party with some other friends and their babies/toddlers. We met up at Pullen Park. In addition to seeing all the kids in their costumes, Natalie and I went on the little train and the carousal they have in the park.
Before trick or treating today, we were finally able to take Natalie to the Hill Ridge Farms to go on a hay ride and pick out a pumpkin. She also spent time checking out the farm animals, going on a giant slide with Papa and going through a hay maze.
Last night, we moved Natalie to her new big girl bed and new room. We've converted the playroom into her new big girl bedroom with a twin bed. She did surprisingly well. She cried a little last night but I think it was because she was didn't like the nightlight in her new room that we had added. Once we removed the nightlight and snuggled a little bit, she went right to sleep and never got out of bed. She slept till 8:30 a.m. which is an hour and a half longer than normal. For her nap today, she went down with no problems again and slept for 2 hours and 20 minutes -- an hour longer than she did in her crib. Again tonight, she went down with no problems and didn't get out of the twin bed. I'm very impressed with how well she's doing! She's such a big girl!

Natalie's new room. Since taking these photos we've moved the nursery glider in the room and still need to put up the book shelves on the wall in the window area and add the tiebacks for the curtains.
