October

Power is back on in our house and now it's time for me to do some catching up. The month of October quickly came and went. Time flies by! We have been busy enjoying the fall weather and trying to accomplish all of our activities that we had on our Fall 2012 Bucket List. 

Yesterday was Halloween and we had a BLAST! Weston dressed up as a Saint Bernard. He could not wait to go door to door and say "trick-or-treat". He was especially happy to get lots and LOTS of lollipops! I have found that a lollipop treat while shopping keeps him still for a good 5-10 minutes before he starts begging to get out of the cart and run. Christmas shopping this year will be me on the couch online when the stinkpot is sleeping. Taking a toddler shopping is pure torture. I will not even get into our grocery store adventure today (well just a little hint: hundreds of gift cards thrown on the floor, multiple loaves of bread squished, newspapers ripped, and a tantrum on the floor by the cupcakes). Maybe it was all the sugar from last night's adventure?

A few October pics...

So glad that we played in the leaves before the hurricane. Now everything is soggy and brown. 

And we have already been busy working on Christmas presents around here! This kid loves painting!

Let's hope November does not go by as fast! I have lots to do before baby girl arrives!
