And a very lovely Ladybug.
Thankfully this year Daddy was home to take her out Trick-a-Treating!! Gauri was thrilled to ring everyone’s door bells and receive “treats”, she didn’t care about the treats although! But what she liked most was – having the opportunity to ring every neighbor’s door bells. 
Funny, she thought it was now acceptable to ring their bells every day….hahahaha…our poor neighbors – she continued to ring their bell every-time we returned home from a trip out of the house…..It took me some time to try to explain her why she couldn’t ring their bell anymore. Now she continues to wait for the next Halloween not only to dress up but mostly to have a chance to ring everyone’s door bells freely!!
Before coming to America I had absolutely no idea what Halloween was. But now I find Halloween to be such a fun festival specially after having Gauri its extra special to us now. Its fun to see all the little ones dressed up in fun costumes and even more fun to dress up your own little one (yea, only if they are in the mood to dress up that day).
Last year I wanted Gauri to dress up in a lady bug costume but at the last minute she revolted – didn’t want to wear that red and black lady bug overall….oh how disappointed I was. Change of plans – I dressed her in yellow and black and painted her face with black whiskers put tiger ears and tail on her and there you go!! Huff!!

This year as she looked at her last year’s pictures (in lady bug costume, yes I did manage to get a few pictures taken before the big revolt) she yelled out – “I want to be a bug mum”. I said “Gauri how about Elmo or big bird?”, she instantly replied “NO”. I thought she’d be happy to dress up elmo since he’s her current favorite, but I was wrong. She loves elmo and big bird but that didn’t mean she wanted to be one. She kept insisting she wanted to be Lady bug. So who am I then to disregard little-miss-determined’s wishes. She dressed like a lady bug, although the antennas on her head were too tempting and she didn’t want to put them on her head really. Oh Well!!

Too cute. WOW, have not seen her beautiful long hair down, it looks lovely. She looks too sweet in her ladybug costume, so glad to hear she cooperated with that costume 'this year'. =) I think she's the prettiest ladybug I've ever seen.
