I think we'll keep her!
Finally got some pics of Violet from Halloween. Her costume was such fun to make, though she does resemble a Falcon. Member of the Raptor Family, though, right?

Jonni: Too cute!!!!! And the costume is cute, too. Did Violet hoot like an owl? The pictures are beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Marly

Thanks, Marly! She did. That's why we decided she would be an owl for Halloween. She "hoots" all the time...and has since she was about 4 months old. It was sort of her first form of communication!

Thanks, girls. She was such a good sport about her costume, and didn't try to take it off at all!
Beth, you haven't been on in a while! Welcome back, for sure! Thanks so much for the compliments to Vi, she's a very good baby, and we love her so (could you tell?).

So happy this could bring a smile, today, for everyone, but especially, Julia.
Bonnie, you sure have been gone a bit--but it's soooo good to have you back, and I post pics of her growing like weed every now and again, so you can almost see it like we do!
That face is sure something, isn't it, Jennifer (with the teeth?) It's her cat-hiss face and she makes it every now and again, seemingly for no reason. It was a good choice for Halloween!

Supercute costume! I love the first picture, where it looks like she's "perching" on your arm (hands=owl feet). |

Thanks, Amie and Kristin! I thought the one where she is "perched" was pretty darn, cute. My fil really liked that one, too. She changes almost everyday...
I sure would like to get to meet you all in person someday soon, too! Wouldn't that be a great wish for 2010!

Thanks, Jessie! She was such a little trooper, and didn't try to take anything off, not once. I really enjoyed making her costume. I will probably continue to do so until she decides to be Hannah Montana or something!

Jonni: I've been mowing my yard, thinking of Violet hooting like an owl. That has just made my day, thank you. By the way, you should enter those pictures in next year's Halloween contests. I'd bet Violet would come in first!!!! Hoot hoot hoot! Marly

Hoot hoot Hoot, Marly! I'm so glad it gave you a smile! She sure can make me laugh, too, and that hooting, you'll be happy to know that while we walked the neighborhood with her older cousins running door to door, she was hooting! Made us all laugh! We also took her the next day, all dressed up in her costume, to the hospice center where Jus's grandmother is residing now. Sure made a lot of folks there happy, too. Staff, patients, families.
I just might enter those pics--I don't pat myself on the back too often, but I do love that costume, and how it turned out. Suits her so!

Thank you both so much! This was a great deal of fun, making her costume, and that she's just such an easy-going, lovely, little girl makes it even better.

Jonni: How nice to hear that Violet went to the Hospice Center. I bet they loved her. Give Violet a Hoot Hoot from this Louisiana Cajun. Marly
