Fun times at the zoo

I love meeting my buds Axel and Aly at the zoo. We ride on the tram, see puppet shows, pet goats, eat soft pretzels, and of course see cool animals.




Halloween

















Halloween was so much fun. It felt like it went on for days! To kick it off, Mama, Dada, Ruby and I went to the zoo - they had special games, a costume contest and trick or treating. All the kids were dressed in their finest - as was I, in my excellent lion costume, complete with terrifying ROOOOAAARRR's. Ruby went as a cute little kitten. My friend Aly was also there - she came dressed as Dorothy - I guess from some movie.




Then Hurricane Sandy hit, and we had to stay inside for a few days. We had our flashlights ready, and I loved wasting the power on them by leaving them on, much to Dada's chagrin. But lucky for us, we didn't lose power so I could sit comfortably on the sofa and watch Cars to my heart's content.

The weather cleared up in time for some trick or treating a few days later. We went to my friend Axel's house. I vaguely remember this from last year, but it still blew my mind - we knocked on people's doors and they just handed us candy! Just giving it away! Crazy. As soon as I would get a piece of candy I would immediately try to pop it in my mouth. They didn't taste so great because they were wrapped in plastic, so I would make Mama open them for me.

That night I got to eat pizza and candy and stay up late. I didn't want to take my costume off, it was so much fun. But also pretty exhausting!

Lil Rubes


My baby sister is so cute. She really cracks me up.
