Fancy had her Halloween party at daycare, and she went as a skrawberry. For all you non-Southerners, that translates into "strawberry."

And just like everything else at her daycare, the party was crazy. Pretty "off the chain" compared to most daycare Halloween parties. They had tons of pizza, juice boxes, popcorn, games, and clowns (which was difficult for me due to my ridiculous fear of clowns--think about it, they're creepy)!

They had different things set up in each hallway, such as decorating sugar cookies and life sized bowling. In true Fancy fashion, she did nothing but eat a big spoonful of icing and knocked the bowling pins over with her body instead of the ball. Atta girl!

And if I had known this is what I looked like after a day of work, I probably would have done something with myself. Lawsy.

Step AWAY from my candy!

She loves it when we dress her up. 

I'm afraid the daycare may have also brainwashed my child. Just a few short weeks ago Fancy was on the brink of expulsion for pretending her "friends" were punching bags, and now she's a different child. We got there this morning at the same time Ava (a little girl in her same room) did and they walked all the way down the hallway hand in hand. I was watching Fancy like a hawk. I kept waiting for her to sneak a pinch in, elbow her to the ground or "accidentally" trip her, but nothing happened. Whaaaaa?! Ava's dad was probably wondering why I looked so confused...

In other news...we still haven't sold our house in Mississippi. Have I mentioned how awesome apartment life is when you're living in about 800 square feet with a toddler? If you've never done it I highly recommend it. But, on the plus side of our real estate woes, it means Mom and Dad are getting to spend lots more quality time with Stella and Annie and I can tell they are LOVING it! I hope I can pry Stella away when we do get a house. 

We went to the ranch last weekend and Fancy thought that meant she could lounge around and eat Cheetos all day. 

And we watched the Cats get throttled by those dirty Sooners. Blech. There is just something about the Sooners and their fans that make me want to urp. I would compare it to the feelings LSU fans have towards Alabama fans. But Fancy did get to wear her fab KSU outfit.

Lastly, I came across this picture on my phone the other day. I don't remember taking it, but there's something about it that I love. Uncle Rob with his pals. Ethan and Emma would have stare downs in the mornings to see who got to sit on his lap. Obviously, the princess won this particular morning, but it was a constant battle. I just really miss him...
