Sophia still wasn't feeling well today so she stayed home from school and I just let her vegg. I had a play date set up for after Noah got out of school but we had to cancel but another mom offered to pick up Noah and drop him off so I agreed and he had a great time. After feeding them dinner we set out for trick or treating. Sophia was so miserable she only made it to about 3 or 4 houses and she jumped in the stroller. Noah made it down a full block and a half and filled his bucket half way. Not too bad! He was content with that. We came home made popcorn and watched Charlie Brown Halloween. My only regret for today, besides Sophia feeling better, was that Peter wasn't there to hear all the compliments on Noah's costume. Several people even stopped and took pictures of him. You did good baby!

So the costume is done and Peter did an awesome job! Noah wanted to keep the costume on all night but we distracted him by finally carving our pumpkins. It's funny, they really didn't want to get their hands dirty at first but then they had lots of fun making a mess! Peter cleaned all the seeds and roasted them so the house smells amazing right now.

Sophia is a little under the weather. She must have caught something yesterday at school and she had a really rough night. Peter and I were like zombies this morning. It took me forever to wake up and get ready for work. Luckily the weather is nice and cool (well for FL anyway) so that helped wake me up some. I'm praying she sleeps better tonight. She got a warm bath and I rubbed Vicks on her chest and back and a little Motrin for the fever. I hope it helps! Noah is really looking forward to trick-or-treating tomorrow I hope we can still swing it.

Getting Creative

Noah decided to be a robot this year for Halloween which meant that we had to get creative. We found some great ideas on-line and Peter added a few of his own. This is where it's at so far.

Sunday

On Sunday we took the kids to Sea World for some early trick or treating. We meet the Lowes and had a nice evening together. It was crazy crowded but even with that the kids enjoyed it. The boys waited for about 45 min with the kids for the Sesame Street show while Jen and I took a hike to the Anheuser Bush pavilion for a complimentary pumpkin beer and got back just in time to see the show.

Crazy Hula Boy

Noah asked for a hula hoop for his birthday which he got but I had no idea he was so good! Check him out! (Sorry the video is so dark)

Friday evening we went pumpkin picking. Noah, of course, wanted to buy the $50.00 pumpkin but we settled for a $10.00 one instead. Of all the pumpkins we saw I still think my pumpkins were the cutest!

There here!

What do ya think? We finally had our plantation shutters installed today! They look nice but I'm sure they will look better when the rooms are done.
