Getting Ready for Halloween

I've got the bug this year so I started to get the Halloween stuff out early rather than later. The kids really got into it too, telling me what to get out and asking where certain items are in the containers. They had fun putting it all out. Joshua has some issues with a Grim Reaper toy, but he just can't help being near it and pushing the button. Then telling us he's scared....couple minutes later, there he is right back with the reaper. Jacob and Layne like the plasma ball, the plastic ball with the lightning you can touch.

We tried doing lunch together at Chili's, but Joshua was acting horribly, so he and actually left and went home. He was that bad. He seemed to have moments the rest of the day where he just couldn't listen.

Jacob spent the weekend with his friend Connor from school. They went to their cabin in the woods. Sounds like it's a second house they own two hours away. It's got a hottub and big flat screen tv. Jacob had a great time.

Layne had her friend Divya over to spend the night on Saturday. They had an equally fun time even without the hottub. It was so warm we got out the slip-n-slide and they played with that for about an hour. Then some tv and Wii. Divya said it was the best sleepover ever.

  1. And -- Joshua spent Saturday evening and night with Granma and Papa Jack. He was wonderful. Ate all except 2 small bites of a regular size cheeseburger for dinner. He took a bubble bath in the big tub with lots of toys. We read Pinocchio, and he was asleep shortly after 7:30 PM. Didn't wake until Papa Jack came to tell us it was 8:30. He had 3 large waffles for breakfast with his chocolate milk. He marched right into his classroom at church and started coloring. I just don't know what his parents did to him after church!
