Life of Lulu: October 2019 Photoshoot

Elsie (2y 2m) with JJ Koala Baby

Halloween was a blast this year, it was in the upper 50s both days we went trick or treating (Downtown Madison and Boo at the Zoo). Our Little Daniel Tiger was recognized by soooo many kids, I think she was a bit confused why they were pointing at her and calling her Daniel (Look, Mommy, it's Daniel!). I told her she should say, "Hi, Neighbor!" to everyone, but she was feeling shy for the most part. Besides dealing with long lines and lots of people, both events were great. Unfortunately, on my birthday and for the 31st it was SNOWING and lots of cold weather, so we did not trick or treat on the actual day. Next year we will check out the mall or something, just in case. Funny enough, she likes to pick out the "junk" candy, suckers, gum, hard candies. She never went for the chocolates or Snickers or anything. We'll have to chat ahead of time next year ;)

What else to report? Her speaking and vocabulary is off the charts, in comparison to the other 2 year olds we've met. Her growth is right in the middle ~50% for height and weight, and she is suuuper active, never sits still my Elsie. She also has a pretty good secret to tell people, but I'll let her do the telling ;)

She's still obsessed with her babies, loves to drive them around on her bike, put them in her 'pouch' like her Joey, push them in her many carts/strollers, sleep with them. And for the record, Libby Koala Baby has been renamed JJ (I assume because she also loves to watch JJ Baby from Cocomleon onYoutube). Emma Kitty Cat Baby is still Emma. And Serena Giraffe and Mable Cow don't matter at all, ha. She's also become super interested in taking pictures of them with my phone camera.

I have to get her a haircut, her hair is always in her face and she doesn't like to let me put it up. Maybe over Thanksgiving.

She's loving her Kindermusik class every week and her swimming lessons. Dad tries to get her to the Children's Museum once a week as there's tons to do and they can go when it's not crazy busy. Unfortunately, with the snow we are more cooped up inside as of late, probably for the foreseeable future, alas!
