Halloween

-
Halloween is over. Phew! 
Whirlwind October starts the busy season in this house.


Squirt got this pumpkin on his class field trip. 
I decided to paint in honor of the Man of Steel.


I let Squirt skip nap yesterday so we could head to school
to watch the Halloween parade.
Basically the kids walk around and parents come up to see costumes.
Cute. I was impressed with how well Moose stood in line.


After school I gave them Superman cookies.
Apparently cream cheese frosting doesn't freeze like buttercream.
So I took a picture with the wax paper and then took it off. :)



The cookies we made for trick-or-treaters.
I figured if their parents didn't want them to have homemade goodies,
they could throw them away. 

the half frosted cat and very sprinkled pumpkin were Squirt's
I love these mummies!  


The Super S Club family!
Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and two Supermans


Lois and Clark
I had two women think I was a real reporter. Cute.





We did our Main Street trick-or-treating, a small trunk-or-treat and then we ate pizza and were done.
I have both boys home. I took Moose to the doctor yesterday and they gave him stuff for his cough,
and said he could go to school, but the kid has just been exhausted all week, so I thought a day of rest (and Cars 2) was in need.

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read...

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp...
