Halloween and kid pics


We managed to get the kids out for the trunk or treat.  The Primary was in charge of providing treats, so we had to be there anyway...not that we would have missed it.  Peter had a lot of fun.  Elly was a little bit sleepy, as it was past her bedtime.  But they both loved their costumes.  

I love the banana sticking out of the monkey's pocket.  So cute.

My little kitten. 
I am still not sure what color her eyes are going to be.  Gray?  Gray with brown?  Hmm...

Recent pictures on the stairs.  Elly is 19 months old here.  She's being a little coy.  

Elly looks to her brother for many things lately.  She has learned to say "please" solely by our coaxing Peter into asking nicely for things that he wants.  She is quite clever in her use.  When she is asking for something, and we are not wanting to give in, she gets a sweet little smile, squints her eyes and says, "Pease?"  I think she may have us wrapped around her little finger.  Such a cutie!
Elly has really taken off with her talking lately.  She probably has somewhere around 50 words at this point.  Although, she has a hard time with "s" at the beginning of words.  For example, "sorry" comes out, "vorry." We'll have to work on that.  It is fun to hear her talking so much.  I think it shocked us how much she understands and can say now.  She's growing and learning so fast!  

They like to play together.  Their favorite pastime is running around our large leather chair and chasing each other.  For such a little toddler, Elly sure can run fast!  

It is hard to get Peter to hold still for pictures lately, but Elly seems to love to ham it up for the pictures.  My sweet little girl!
