IN: Halloween was so much fun . I spent most of the day lounging and playing with Granny while Mommy did some stuff for her class . I was so excited for Halloween , look at the cute outfit that Nana gave me to wear for the big day ... As you can also see from this picture , I spent a lot of time looking out the window waiting for the kids to arrive . While I waited , I also tried to steal all the candy from Granny 's cute witch b asket ... Before I could get my hands on anything good , Mommy snatched me up and started putting this big , soft , yellow thing on me .
What may have been the reason the children would soon arrive at my house ?

OUT: They would come to my house while they were out trick - or - treating .

IN: Not bad , within my budget ... Just came home from a big dinner ( Aunt 's bday ) and it has got to be one of the best chinese cuisine ( & most expensive ) I ' ve had ! ! Near $ 800 for 8 pax . :p We ordered a set meal for 10 pax but bro 's gf had to study for tomorrow 's test and the bf is MIA - ing thus leaving only 8 of us to wipe out the food .
Why was the narrator not worried about the meal ?

OUT: It was affordable .

IN: Your favorite way to make it feel like home : We were shocked at how dificult it can be to travel with a baby . Keeping a handy stash of cheerios , blankets and pacifiers helped ease the dificult moments . A new toy brought out of mom 's bag every couple of hours also helped the two day journey . An item you MUST take with you when traveling : We had to stop a couple of times on the drive from Washington , DC to Ludington and found that our plastic Fisher Price Booster seat was indispensible !
What may happen during the trip ?

OUT:
We took some breaks on the drive .
