Trick or treat

The little one seems to have a problem with the world in general, not to mention special issues with posing for daddy..

This is all we could manage after getting her to smile.

Jr. on the other hand totally enjoyed going out today.

All thanks to mommy for taking them out to the cousin's neighborhood for trick or treating. Daddy did not do a thing except stay home and dole out two candies, yeah, two candies, one each to the two four year old's who showed up over a 2 hour period!

Guess a street without street lights or a pavement does not invite many kids. Also the kids in the street have practically all gone to high school or college. That explains the drop in candy seekers in our area!

The kids are both at an age where they appreciate dressing up and love candy. Judging by our friends kids, guess we have just two more years before Jr. starts losing interest in this thing.

Until then, time to capture Halloween in pumpkin and costume pictures!

Paavaadais for this season

Too bad I was not in good enough shape to capture the other two sets.. We will get them the next time they dress up to go to a temple or some other function.

Our girls are growing up.. too fast for my liking!

Frolicing in frocks

These days elders we visit with the kids give them cash and ask them to go buy clothes. We rounded up all the cash and got a few sets of fancy wear for the kids from a place called Cents and Pence in Adyar.

They have a decent collection!

Jr. is having a problem fitting into practically anything as she is now outside of the kids sizes! Pretty soon she will be shopping in the young adults section at Target. Don't know why she is in a rush to grow up. Wish I could slow it down a little and keep her the same Jr.

The little one seems to be okay as far as physical maturity goes, but mentally she talks like a 60 year old. She makes sure I don't miss my mother! At least she fits in clothes in the kids section..

More pictures next weekend..
