My mom & I took Zaida over to Gardner Village earlier this week & tried to get some cute photos of her with the witches. Each year Gardner Village will dress up these witches & set them out around the grounds surrounded by pumpkins & all sorts of festive decorations. It's really cute. I just wish Zaida would have wanted to turn her back on any of them! :)
Here she is getting more brave. I think she was more comfortable because it had a fence surrounding it.
And this was her favorite part of the day - the ducks! 
She has NO fear ... she was walking right up to them. We were seriously nervous that they might bite her. So, of course, we would grab her and pull her back so she wasn't too close - but, that did not make Zaida happy. She was furious that we would try to separate her from the ducks. I'm telling you, she has got such the personality. She wants what she wants when she wants it. Don't get me wrong - it's so fun having a baby who has such a personality. She comes up with the funniest (& smartest) things, but I definitely have to put my agenda aside (if I had one).Here is my beautiful Japanese doll! A co-worker of my dad's gave her the gorgeous little kimono when Zaida was born. I thought this would be the perfect outfit for Halloween. I had a hard time getting a happy smiley picture of Zaida (those dang Japanese!), but here are a couple of cute shots of her in her outfit.
I hope everyone had a fun & safe Halloween!
