Halloween 2009

We had a wonderful Halloween this year. Melanie had us over and went all out with the Halloween theme including monster finger sandwiches, spider cupcakes and stuffed bat pastries. She also had a pinata and a mummy contest for the kids. We hung out there for a while and then went to trick or treat. Wright picked up on how that worked very quickly and was great at saying "trick or treat" and "thank you" to every person. We finished off the night at the neighborhood carnival and played games for more candy.

Trick or treating was a great time.

Daddy and Wright.


We learned that he can now hang from the bars on the playground.

Wright had a blast with the pinata.

This was the best picture we could get of the cousins.

Sick but Funny

Wright is sick with a virus and the poor thing has been coughing non stop for 2 days. Yesterday he coughed so much that he made himself throw up. He just stayed in his bed talking to himself and when I came in, he said "Mama spit" and he was sitting in a pile of puke! Then I told him, "Oh baby, that is throw up." So all night he kept saying "No Mama, no ketchup!" He obviously thinks throw up and ketchup are the same word. I fear the day that someone offers him ketchup on his hamburger!
