Trick or Treat!!

Saturday was Halloween- along with our anniversary (thank you everyone for the anniversary wishes!). It was a fun filled busy day. First we went to Rub.y Tue.sdays (my friend Jess got us a gift card for an anniversary gift) for lunch and then to visit my friend Jess & her son. Jess's son amazes me- he is so sweet and so gentle with Delilah. At one point he was sitting next to Delilah (Jess was kind of holding her) and she bumped her head in to his face. There was like a 10 second delay & she started crying. I picked her up to comfort her and all the while Hughie (Jess's son) was like "Mommy I'm sorry it was an accident." And it wasn't even his fault! Aww!! He always says such adorable things to her. He'd put his hand on her cheek and say "You are so cute!" We had a really nice visit but unfortunately had to cut it short to get Delilah home for a nap so she could hand out candy with us. After our visit with Jess we stopped in to my parents' to show them Delilah's Halloween outfit. That was a super short visit in order for us to get her home for a nap (we also got candy from Pappy & Grammy!).

Once home we napped (yea I took one too) and once up we were ready for Trick or Treating! Well ok, not yet we still had like 2 hours to go. Once 6:00 rolled around we stuck her in her costume and took her to two of our neighbors. We got a bag of candy from the one neighbor (and they took her pic for us) and a butterfinger from the other neighbor (all of which mommy & daddy would be eating later LoL). We headed back in to our house and waited a minute before bringing out the candy (there were some kids coming who didn't have costumes I didn't want to give candy to heh).

Delilah helped us hand out candy for quite awhile. Everyone loved her costume... most people guessed right what she was. We also got a butterfly and a ladybug. Yes folks- a friggin ladybug. I don't know any ladybugs that look like this but heck, maybe that person was from another planet LoL It was funny- even kids were saying how cute she looked. Boys too which is weird (I think because they don't really notice that stuff). After she went to bed John & I handed out the rest of the candy. We got a lot of compliments on our decor & some people even took pics of it (which I should've to show you all)! But what I do have pics of is Delilah- so here they are!

Oops I used this one in a collage- o well!

Gosh I suck

I really was going to try to keep up with whole blogging thing but I've totally been sucking. I just have no ambition. Both of the girls are doing great. Delilah just finished preschool today. We had a rough start but it got better. And then she went back to the crying beforehand and giving John issues. She was very happy to learn today was her last day and promptly requested she go to a new preschool. Which she will be in September. Agap.eland! I am so excited for her to begin there. I think (hope) she'll like it a lot more and she'll learn lots of new things. I just hope we don't have the same issues with the new place as we did with the old place. Tatum is growing in leaps and bounds. Recently she's been trying to blow bubbles with the bubble toy grammy got her. It's so adorable as she dip the wand in the spill-proof container (gotta love those), pulls it out and attempts to blow bubbles. She actually did blow bubbles today but of course I missed it becau...

Almost a month since I last blogged- where does the time go? What to write about? I have no idea. Basically things are pretty boring. We've just been doing what John does while I work... going to Target for our weekly Target visit, going to the marina when it's nice, visiting John's parents. We've also visited Ash & the boys for some play dates. Other than that it's been low key which is nice since I only get three months with Tatum. Don't get me wrong I know I'm lucky to have the time I do with Tatum but I just wish I could have six months with her. My mom has since stopped coming during the weekends as I can lift Delilah again. It's not too bad actually- I was worried about it but I'm surviving. I've even been able to get them places by myself. Usually just to visit John at work or for our weekly Sunday visit to my parents. Last Saturday I did make a trip to this place called Wendt's Pork Palace (they have yummy wing dings) with Ashley ...
