Our Little Pumpkin


Since Ellie was so small, we came up with the idea to try and find a pair of Yoda ears for her to wear on Halloween. We didn't think that we would be able to find a costume small enough for her, but figured we'd probably luck out on a little hat of Yoda ears. Not so much!! There was no "Star Wars" accessories out this year - at least where I looked, so the hope of finding a set of Yoda ears was quickly fading. Mark started drawing out how we could make our own, when I stumbled across the PERFECT outfit - a little pumpkin sleeper. I found it on the preemie rack at Sears, it was a 7lb sized sleeper and fit Ellie great (a little big).

Ellie went trick-or-treating to Grandma and Grandpa's and hung out with all her cousins and aunties who loved her fuzzy orange outfit. After supper, Mark and I walked down the block to our friends house (who has looked after Ellie a few times for us) for a spontaneous evening visit. Mark and I handed out candy while Karen and Pat played with and held Ellie.
