HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We love Halloween in this house. In fact I think we have celebrated Halloween for the entire month of October! We went out with a bang yesterday and today with multiple trick or treating events, zoo animals, school parades and parties, cookie baking, pumpkin carving, and neighborhood trick or treating with friends! Tons of pictures to go through from the past few days but just wanted to share a couple of our annual family costume shoot!

Happy Halloween from The Dunlap Family on Sesame Street!

My Baby Boo is Two!

Happy Birthday to my baby girl! Two years ago today we welcomed a beautiful baby girl into our lives. Hayden surprisingly welcomed her baby sister into our family with open arms (I was completely frightened that she would try to attack her when she saw her mommy holding another baby.) Two years has flown by as I still remember October 15th, 2009 like it was yesterday.
Bennett is growing and getting smarter every day. Just this week she decided to shock us with counting to 12 out of the blue! She always says "1-2-3" but randomly decided she needed to show us what she has been hiding all this time. She is my snuggly one and would be happy with Mommy holding her all day long. Her favorite thing to say is "I hold you Mommy." Translation:Mommy I want YOU to hold ME. How can you say no to all that cuteness?!?!?!
A few more fun facts about two year old Bennett:
She LOVES shoes. (Like she HAS to have them on and has multiple shoe changes in a day.) She wants to copy everything big Sissy does. She plays with her baby dolls all day long and has them on a feeding and nap schedule. She wants to go to preschool soooo badly and gets so upset when we drop off Hayden and she doesn't get to go into the classroom with her. Her favorite part of the day is when we pick her up and she gets to run into the classroom for a minute and look at everything. She talks to her 'bebe' (pacifier) and walks around the house yelling 'bebe where are youuuuuuuuu?' She can't walk out of the house without a purse or a backpack filled with the most random items. She has all of us wrapped around her finger and I think she knows it and uses it to her full advantage!!!

Happy Birthday to my Baby Girl! Mommy, Daddy, and Sissy love you so much!


I am not biased just because I am her Mommy. I seriously have the most beautiful two girls on the planet! :)

 

 I have this same exact image of her from One Year ago on her First Birthday. Still wants nothing to do with a cupcake! (Oh and check out those lashes.... A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!)

Fine Mommy... I'll try it if you just stop bugging me.

Yes she really got up from picture taking, walked into the kitchen, grabbed a fork and came back. "Mommy I can't eat it with my fingers... I will get messy!" :)

CUPCAKES CUPCAKES CUPCAKES!

I'm a Princess... got a problem with it?!?!
