Halloween

Ahhh, yes the ghouls were out in full force tonight, screeching and wailing and carrying on.  And that was even before dinner was finished.  Nick almost missed his second real Halloween because he's really finding his niche as screaming-hell-child-who-refuses-to-listen.  Great fun times, for realz.

I took two pictures tonight in between holding the umbrella, carrying Nick's costume and helping up and down stairs

They can be really cute, when they're still, and quiet like in this picture.

Kindergarten

Pretty light on ye olde blog posts lately... I've been meaning to put a pic of Tobin off to his first day of school up for awhile now, so finally here it is!

He was SO excited!  He had his backpack full of supplies, his jet fighter dress shirt and his favourite shorts all picked out for the day.  He's been loving it too, which I just can't relate to actually.  I'm always amazed how excited kids are about going to school.  I guess the jaded, slouchy part will come later...
Anyway, for now it's fantastic.

Incidentally, we finally managed to get them to wear pants for the first time since May.  Nick would still be wearing shorts to preschool if he had a choice, even though it's 3deg and raining out.
