Trick or Treat!

October was a very busy month for us. We're still trying to settle into the house and get adjusted to our busy schedules, but it's surely not easy on us. We did try to enjoy the "fall" weather in Texas, though I'd hardly call it fall. It's still in the 70's and the leaves are just now changing as November rolls along.
Bella did dress up as a witch for Halloween, although she wasn't too fond of everyone else's costumes. The witches particularly scared her. We took her to a Halloween Spooktacular at the local library and even then she didn't want to leave our arms. Then we went to a pumpkin patch and she enjoyed picking out her very own pumpkin.
Also in October we ventured down to Houston so Bella could meet her Great-Grandparents Villarreals and see her Aunt Kristen, Grandpa Bob and Grandma Bev. She also saw lots more family too in the short weekend we were there. She particulary liked swinging on the swing and being with Great-Grandpa Villarreal.
All in all, Bella has been getting much bigger and saying loads of new words. You can make out "thank you", "go", "more", "puppy", but her favorite is "NO!" Go figure! She enjoys playing outside and helping mom cook. Who knows what November will bring our way!
