What’s better than being able to dress up for Halloween on one night? Dressing up almost every day for a whole week! This year, somehow, I remembered to order her a costume ahead of time and this year, somehow, she was fine wearing it as long as she had on tights (so that the skirt didn’t itch her) and a shirt underneath (so that the top didn’t itch her). We even managed to talk her into wearing the hat later in the week when Gramy fashioned a way for her to tie it so it wouldn’t fall off her head. She was definitely the cutest witch that I’ve ever seen.
Because I was put on temporary bedrest, Daddy had to take over almost all Halloween duties that week. It was a change for Brittain, but she loved every second of having her Daddy with her.
Halloween night itself is fortunately pretty easy for us. We have enough family members in town that Brittain never feels cheated when it comes to trick-or-treating…or how much candy/treats she gets. By the time we headed home that evening, the entire back of my car was filled with all kinds of goodies.
Apparently, as of right now, Halloween is Brittain’s favorite holiday of the year. (This is what she told me).
