her pirate tattoo hasnt come off yet from jack's b-day party, oops! and that is supposed to be her handprint but she was too excited and it anded up being a blob. but we like blobs, right?!
i hope this made you smile rikki :) hope you all have a ghoulishly creepy eeky halloween!
this week we had preschool at our house. this months theme was transportation. we lucked out and got the week we learned about boats! we made paper boats and the kids got to decorate them. jack didnt care so much about decorating his boat, he just wanted to find out if it was sea worthy. as soon as we filled up the tub to have a race, the kids scooped up water in their boats, rather then sitting them on top of the water, and they were no longer able to float. oh well. we made new ones for them to take home and play with on their own. i am now a PRO at folding paper boats!
we also checked out this book from the library. jack and i really like it. i cried when i read it the first time, but im a big boob when it comes to childrens books. i think i read waaaay too into them. the art work was a little weak, but all in all i would recommend it.
this morning larissa and i took the 3 little magoos to the Fall Festival in san carlos. we payed 2 bucks each for them to jump in the bounce house, which we thought was outrageous. but the kids ended up playing in it for a very long time. i think we certainly got our moneys worth.
jack received a fire truck from his buddy jenna for his birthday. now he LOVES them and says he wants to drive one when hes older. he wanted to get a picture by the one we saw at the festival. if you can, click on this picture to enlarge it, ev is making such a silly smile!
they let jack sit in it and asked if he wanted to drive it. jack quickly said, "no. i want to get down".
while ellie is taking her nap, i have been letting jack eat a few pieces of halloween candy. today he picked a warhead. i dont think he will want anymore of them...
on thursday we celebrated our 5th anniversary. we were able to go out on tuesday night and thursday night to spend time with eachother. thats our favorite thing to do. just enjoying one another. i love you christopher...and my beautiful, tangerine kitchenaid. i hope you enjoy your weber charcoal grill! i forsee many tasty meals in our future
i think its apparent that chris and i ENJOY food. maybe just a little bit. ok, a lot a bit :)
the three year olds went on a boat ride to start the party off:
hahaha jack took a few "special" pictures today. we did tell him it was his special day, but he took it to a whole different level! this one is still making me laugh
heres another winner!
