Happy (Almost) Halloween!!
I love Halloween! It's up there next to Christmas and Valentine's Day. I love the weather, dressing up, and of course the CANDY!
The boys turned 3 weeks old last week, and we took them to the pumpkin patch at our church. (In theory this is a GREAT idea... in real life-- not so much!)
But here are some pictures from our Pumpkin Adventure!
"This is really fun!" - Hudson
"Really mom? Really?" -Luke
"Dad, I am trying to sleep." -Luke
"These pumpkins aren't very soft!" -Hudson
" Ohh--- look at me!! " -Hudson
"Are we done yet?" -Luke
(I think they are really enjoying this photo shoot!)
And we are done!
And I leave you with bath time... always a great way to quiet them down!

One of my fondest newborn memories was Halloween night, when Cayley was two months old. I had to feed the kids, but I also had to feed the Cayley, so I strapped on my "foamy" breastfeeding support pad, which was like a very firm ledge above my waist. She latched on and then I covered my breast and her upper body with a baby blanket. Her legs and feet stuck out sideways from my body and I could carry her around like that, with one hand supporting the apparatus and the other hand free to distribute candy.
ReplyDeleteWhen the kids came the door, they were unanimous in declaring this to be the coolest costume they'd ever seen - they thought I was dressed up as one of those mutant characters from Total Recall.

When I told them, no, it wasn't a costume - that's an actual newborn baby under there - the looks on their faces were priceless.
