imaginations…
Lately, my kids have been playing a lot of “house” as I called it growing up, and they completely crack me up with the things they come up with. The other day when we were on our way home from school, they decided to be brother and sister (go figure!) and I was their babysitter. There conversation went something like this…
Daughter: I can’t go to the birthday party because girls can’t go
Son: Uh huh, girls can go now
Me: Whose birthday party are you going to?
Daughter: I don’t know his name because I wasn’t invited
Son: He doesn’t have a name
Me: What did you buy him for his present?
Son: My mom bought him all kind of birthday stuff
Me: What kind of birthday stuff?
Son: Like cake, cereal…and…cupcakes and pizza
Daughter: Well I didn’t get him anything because I didn’t know I was allowed to go
Son: I will make him something then, and you can carry it in
Me: What are you going to make him?
Son: A light saber, and he said he wants the whole galaxy
Daughter: Well, now he is just being greedy
Son: I am going to call my mom and ask her to buy an Anakin costume at Target. Do you have a phone?
Daughter: I was texting too much at school so my teacher threw it away

I had to cut in there, and get out of character. I had no idea my daughter even knew what texting was. haha!

lemons…
over the last couple of weeks i have been going through old photos, and trying to get them organized. i came across this set, and had to laugh, for whatever reason, they both wanted a lemon slice. and what kind of mother would i be if i didn’t photograph them? i have no idea of how my son kept the slice in his mouth for as long as he did. i believe he also had his mohawk still at this point, before we let it grow out.

patience…
the dog waiting so patiently, hoping to get a dropped m&m or two. sadly for her, not a single one hit the floor.

trick or treat…
[taken on the iphone]
the little miss eneded up being the one and only hannah montana, and the little guy had a last minute costume change to anakin skywalker. while out trick or treating he attacked a darth vader, who certainly wasn’t expecting it. ha..boys are crazy.

happy halloween…
apparently, this is what happens when i asked the mister to make breakfast for the kids…
[sorry about the poor photo quality, it was a dark morning]
and this is what happens when i go to old navy the day before halloween. all halloween items were $2, plus i had a 50% off coupon. i am pretty sure this is the best $1 i have ever spent, although our dog, elsie, would disagree.
we will be taking the kiddos trick or treating this evening. our son is a ’skull pirate’ and our daughter is undecided between hannah montana, olivia the pig, or a flower. she said she wants to surprise us. how exciting! happy halloween!

one of the things the little miss asked for was a pink! camera. she was happy to be able to photograph the whole day, including her cake.
