We went to the big Spirit Halloween store today just to look around at costumes. Maddie is super excited about picking a Halloween costume, and Faith loves roaming around big warehouse stores so this was right up her alley. It was basically as though we had access to a free haunted house because of all the decorations that they had set up, including the large ones. Faith was making Dan and I laugh so much. Maddie was intrigued by all the "spooky" stuff, but would then run around in a circle acting goofy and saying "oh my gosh, this is too creepy." Beebster, on the other hand, absolutely LOVED the creepy head bowls that say funny things and have blood dripping out of their mouths. She stood there with her mouth opened in awe just listening to everything that they would say. She didn't even move an inch. Then, after they would be done saying what they had to say, she would say "Bah" ('bye') to them and blow them a kiss! Haha. Dan thought this was hilarious, and I had to agree. She also loved the big cauldron pots that had mist coming out of them (she wanted to put her hand IN them!) and kept giving kisses to all of the pumpkins. Halloween just might prove to be Beebster's special holiday!
My little woman is pointing out all of her colors these days. She's been pointing out her colors for awhile now- probably a few months- when you give her certain things that have limited choices. For example, if she's playing with her cookie toy that has red, blue, yellow, and green cookies, she always knows which color is which when you ask her. But, lately I've noticed that she finds objects of certain colors when you ask her in random places. When we're on a walk, I'll ask her if she sees a blue car and she'll look forever until she can find one. She starts pointing and going "DIS!" It's so cute. She also loves to pretend to count. Whenever we give her a bunch of something (like grapes or cars or whatever) she points to each individual thing and counts in her Beebster language. I hope I never forget what the Beebster language (and the Crandall language for that matter) sound like!
She went to sleep with her new beloved book: "Where's God When I'm S-s-scared?" It's a little Goldenbook that she loves with one of her favorites from Veggie Tales fame, Junior Asparagus. She's now obsessed with two pages in the book that show a big slime monster and what appears to be a corn flake monster. She'll sit there and repeatedly point to the monsters asking us "diss? diss?" prompting us to tell her it's either the slime monster or the corn flake monster. Then she pretends to hide her eyes as though she's scared, but peeks out to smile. She's so funny!
