The cutefest continues. I wonder if Natalie is in her prime, and she will be a homely monster when she is a teenager? I don’t think I can handle the potential attention she may get when she is older, it is tough enough having her stop traffic as it is today. She literally stops people in their tracks. We may be in trouble.
Yesterday was the RTD Fall Festival, an annual fun afternoon where all of the employee’s bring their kids into the office and we have a small Halloween party. There is candy and cupcakes (thank you Jakki) and popcorn, activities for the kids, and a karaoke show. Jakki brought Natalie to the festival, dressed in her Dragon outfit that I bought online. She is adorable. We let her crawl around freely before the masses showed up, and everyone formed a semi circle around her, watching her act out and play monster on the floor. I made a castle out of toilet paper rolls and let her destroy them at will. It was a fun event. We left when they warmed up the microphones for the singing, a perfect cue to disappear as it was going to be loud and obnoxious.
Natalie was not shy at all. She is really confident and outgoing when Jakki and I are both with her. She knows we are watching, and she knows when one of us goes out to the truck to put quarters in the meter. She watches the door for us, and makes sure that she can see one of us when the other is away. She is aware, and that is good.
Chico was a great trip last weekend, and this weekend is the RTD Charity Golf Tournament and Halloween, so the fun continues!

You made the cupcakes love, I just frosted, decorated, and transported them. :) I wanted to attach a picture of the dragon destroying the castle, but I guess you can't put pictures in the comment section. I will get the pictures up on her Picasa site by tonight. :) Love you and am so grateful that I have you to help me care for our firey little dragon. <3 Just wish she was feeling better...
ReplyDeleteAwww! I can't wait to see pictures of her as a little dragon! That is so stinkin' cute! Gavin was a devil (very appropo at the time) his first Halloween and Lauren was a honey pot from Winnie the Pooh. :)
