It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown!

I was able to leave work early yesterday, so Jen called and asked me to "put Morgan in her Halloween costume". Easy enough, right? Well, I didn't know which costume to put her in (bear or cow-girl). 15-20 minutes later Morgan and I are walking down the street in the neighborhood (I'm bare-footed and pulling Morgan in her bear costume in her wagon) and Jen pulls up and starts laughing. Immediately I make sure my zipper is up and that I don't have a boogey (it was and I didn't).

She then tells me that I have put Morgan in the wrong outfit. Oh well! I thought she looked adorable as a teddy bear.


We get Morgan out of the bear outfit and into her cow-girl outfit. The trick with being a cow-girl is that you must have piggy-tails - that could really be a problem, seeing how Morgan cannot stand to have anything on her head. If she hears the word "bow" she immediately reaches for your hair and pulls, whether there is a bow or not. Well, I found a way to distract her so that Jen could fix Morgan's hair.

I found that if you are holding Morgan and get hit in the face with the microwave door, she absolutely cracks up. We have a video (which I'll try to post later) of her belly laughing at the microwave door bouncing off my head. Unfortunately it took about 10 minutes to fix her hair. (I wonder if the bruises are still visible?)
