Trick or Treating

We've gone trick or treating a couple of times over the last few days.  Ainsley didn't exactly care for her costume this year, and when Thomas and Tanner tried to put it on her at Dad's on Sunday, she had a total meltdown.  I was finally able to get it on her by telling her she could play outside for a little bit.



She found the mums at Dad's and had to pick a couple.  She likes smelling the flowers, and it's so cute to watch her wrinkle up her nose and put the flower close to her nose so she can smell it! 
Love her face!



We went down to Papa and Nanny's to trick or treat, where Ainsley had M&M's for the first time.  She liked them, but who doesn't?? 

We were planning on making a few more stops before heading home, but noone seemed to be home.  We were able to catch Grandma Mary out walking Barney, but Ainsley had already fallen asleep in the car, so we didn't really do much trick-or-treating!

Tuesday night, we went to the nursing home to see Grandma Bowman. It was "Safe Trick or Treat" night at the nursing home, so there were a lot of kids there.  Of course, Ainsley wouldn't sit on Grandma's lap, but she was able to get a few hugs and kisses out of her. 
Great Gma Bowman with Ainsley running away!
Mom paraded Ainsley around so the rest of the residents could see her, and she said Ainsley got a little scared in the dining room when she saw someone dressed up as a monster.

We finished out Halloween yesterday afternoon when I took Ainsley down to the bank to see Rita (and the rest of the bank ladies).  Ainsley ran around like she owned the place, and we left lots of little fingerprints on the bank windows.  She went right to Pam after Pam mentioned a sucker, and even let Pam hold her!  She loves suckers!!

I do have to say that I'm glad Halloween is over this year.  Ainsley really didn't like putting her costume on, and then when I would take it off, she would have another meltdown because she wanted it back on.  You just can't win with her!
