Yes, we have already started celebrating Halloween. That happens when you have a little one in preschool. Since I have to dress Madison up anyway, I threw Will’s costume on too.
This would win any 2 and under cutest costume contest, right? I love this costume. It does come with a cute little hat. However, no matter how hard I try, he won’t keep it on. Madison came home already with an entire bag of candy from preschool. She’s already figured out how to sneak some of it already too! They trick or treated in her preschool building. Plus, all of us parent brought candy too! I do feel the need to smack the parents that brought pure sugar candy. Trust me, Madison does not need sugar to bounce off walls. You can only imagine how she is with sugar.
Madison would win for cutest costume 3 and up, don’t you think? I love this costume. It sucks that I caught the window glare in her glasses, but she looks super cute in her Cinderella costume. It is suppose to be in the high sixties tomorrow, so we shouldn’t have to wear our coats out trick or treating. We then are meeting at my sister-in-laws and going trick or treating by her house. We also have a Halloween party on Saturday. We have quite a busy couple of days just to celebrate Halloween!
Though I’d have to say that the best photo I took so far, I took at her preschool today:
She looks so excited and happy! What are you doing for Halloween?

Bill just called home to let me know he is coming home early. Since we haven’t had a chance yet to get pumpkins, we are going to go grab some tonight. I know that Madison is going to be super excited. She has been asking for a week when we can carve some pumpkins.

We have a very busy weekend ahead of us. Our original plan was to finally finish putting the basement together. We still have a ton of crap in the garage that needs to come in, pictures need to be hung, totes need to be gone through and put away, wall plates need to be put up, etc. However, Bill got invited to a gold outing, so he’ll be doing that all day Saturday! My parents are coming down too, so my dad will be going with him golfing. My mom and I will be stuck with the kids, so I don’t think we will be doing any shopping. However, I think I may try and go into the attic and pull out the kids winter clothes. It is October, so it needs to be done. My only fear is that the minute I put their summer clothes away, it will get warm again. I’m just not sure what we will do with the rest of the time.

Yes, I am admitting it. We went to a work dinner for Bill’s work on Saturday night. It was about an hour away, so we had already decided to get a hotel room. It was really fun — there is no need to be sending out Chicago resumes or resumes anywhere else either. We had Filet Mignon for dinner (yummy) and free drinks all night. They even opened a tab up at the bar upstairs after the party was over! We ended up staying up till like 2 am. That isn’t all that late, I know, but man, I am still dragging butt. Seriously. I didn’t even have a buzz when I went to bed, so this isn’t even hangover related. The only other thing I can figure that is making me so tired is that I am getting sick.
How old were you when you figured out you were old? LOL

It doesn’t seem so long ago (it wasn’t either — it was June when my aunt died and yes this is the same side of my family) that I was writing a post similar to this. On Saturday night, my uncle passed away. I think he was 82, so he lived a full life. The weekend prior he had a heart attack and last week he had a stroke. The wake is tomorrow night and the funeral Wednesday. Since this is 4 hours from my home, there is no way for me to attend this. I am also leaving at the end of the week for a conference and I couldn’t leave my kids with a sitter for almost a week. I feel bad all around. Though when things like this happen, it does put everything in perspective. It makes me look at my family and appreciate what I have. I have two wonderful kids, a wonderful husband, and we all have our health. Anyway, if you could keep my family in your thoughts and prayers it is appreciated. My mom seems to be holding up well, but I can never tell.
