Halloween Candy

Eating her candy bracelet

Still trying to get a piece off of her candy bracelet

Yesterday, the girls picked out 3 pieces of candy out of their Halloween bags to eat. Jaden picked out a tootsie roll, nerds, and a Hershey's kiss. Morgan picked a tootsie roll, candy bracelet, and a sucker. I am trying to consciously allow them to eat 2 or 3 pieces a day. They are not used to eating candy, and so it is hard to remember. I just threw out last year's Halloween candy yesterday. Last year, Jaden probably ate about 20% of her candy, and it took her all year to do so. It's not that they don't want to eat it, but I only let them eat at the most 3 a day, and then, we all just forget that it's there.
