The kids were up way too early this morning (6:10), which is about an hour and a half before we leave for school. Since they had so much time after getting ready this is how they spent their extra time:
They took out every single plate, cup, bowl, and lid from the kid stuff drawer and lined it around the island. They were so proud. Guess who got to clean up that after they went to school? At least they worked together and weren’t fighting!
Our house had a great night Trick or Treating with our neighbors. Thankfully it stayed dry! The nice thing about all the kids being younger is that they have yet to catch on to the concept of going to as many houses as possible. We went to about 15 and were done in 40 minutes. Perfect. It was a lot of fun seeing both kids just very happy and excited about trick or treating. Unfortunately the kids love to hand out candy but since we are on a small side street we don’t get that many trick or treaters coming through besides neighbors.
Claire decided about two months ago she wanted to be a cat with a purple tutu so a ballerina cat was created:
Henry thought he wanted to be a dinosaur until he saw a Spider-man costume. The masked lasted only for these pictures:
The whole neighborhood crew getting ready to head out:
The kids have been begging to carve the last two pumpkins we have. I had no desire to carve again so we compromised with painting the pumpkins:
Happy Halloween! I had great hopes of the kids sleeping in this morning, but Claire was up at 6:30 saying she was starving. Oh well. Maybe someday she will learn to enjoy lazy mornings!
