Playing catch up….

Before I play catch up on all the activities that we had at the end of October re: Halloween…I just want to go on record as saying….I am very tired of everyone being ill.  Michael & I were discussing this the other day.  We have had the boys for a little over 60days and we are on our 8th round of antibiotics, 1 cast & orthopedic surgeon, 1 inhaler, 1 breathing machine, and 2 er visits.  It’s crazy!!!!  And I feel bad for venting because it’s not their fault that they have no immune system and every little snotty nose at daycare turns into pneumonia for them but seriously….we are ready for a break.  Okay now I am done :)

So the boys got to experience their first Halloween withus and this included Trunk-n-Treat at our church the Sunday before, a Halloween party at their school (where they got to wear their costumes), and then of course the wonderful and fun night of Halloween…which happened to fall on a Friday so they even got to stay up past their bed time…yippee!  S was a Red Power Ranger/Jungle Fury (not to be mistaken with other types of Power Rangers…he is quick to correct you) and A was Spiderman…..and Buzz Lightyear because he had a slight accident at daycare on Halloween so we had to make a quick trip to Target on our way home and luckily they had a costume in his size.  And trust me when I say we were lucky because the costume aisles were trashed and very picked over.  So here are some of my favorite pics…

Yippee….we have Jack O Lanterns

Wahoo!  We had an awesome morning today.  We carved our pumpkins to make jack o lanterns and the boys LOVED it….as A said when we put them down for a nap this afternoon ”Momma, I was a big help today” .  They had so been looking forward to this day because we bought the pumpkins two weeks ago when we went to Uncle Shuck’s pumpkin patch & corn maze…this was a true test of their patience.  Each boy had a small (kid size) pumpkin and Michael & I shared a large a pumpkin.  We did the boys first then they help me with our pumpkin.

I had so much fun this morning…it was just one of those good warm and fuzzy days.  Following are some fun family pics….we just love these boys…aren’t they cute? :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

I may be biased but I think they did a great job!
Yep, I have learned that Momma will give me what
I want when I give her my “puppy dog” eyes.

Come on Mom, I know I am cute but stop taking pictures

Til next time….
