Halloween Sickie

After weeks of Dalia telling us she wanted to be a princess monster for Halloween, our neighbor gave us a Snow White dress. And while she has no idea who Snow White is, she was easily won over by her "princess" dress and had no interest in the awesome combo get up we originally set out to accomplish. She wore her "fancy" shoes and even got a little eyeshadow and lipstick (though after that wore off she wouldn't let me apply anymore). Now, all of this, including trick-or-treating, handing out candy and generally LOVING Halloween, happened with a high fever (of the past four days) and a trip to Urgent Care this morning. She has an ear infection, which I'm happy we are now treating - if we can get her to take the medicine. She was a trooper today despite feeling horrible. Hopefully, next year we'll make the Monster March with her little sister in tow as well. For now, we stuck close to home and didn't have any less fun for it.

Happy Halloween!
