So cute

Since Chris works at nights and I work during the day we decided to spend Saturday together. We went bowling at Fat Cats. Allie really enjoyed herself by running around and laying on the ground (her white shirt wasn't so white when we left). There were birthday parties going on there so people had balloons and cupcakes and it was really distracting to Allie lol. Chris had lots of power behind the balls he was throwing down the lanes and that helped him get lots of strikes and spares. Trevor just got handed back and forth between mom and dad. He was such a good little boy while we were there. We went to Baskin Robbins afterward and had icecream. Allie of course had to pick the "pink" icecream which ended up being bubble gum but she didn't like the little pieces of gum in it so she would take a bite and spit out the gum and drip pink icecream all over her white shirt, her jacket, my shoes, her pants, and the table. I have to say at that point I was losing patience. Trevor loved his icecream. He still needs to get the hang of licking the cone instead of sticking his whole face in it. I'm glad we had taken this time to spend together. I hope this will be something Allie will remember.

Halloween

We had lots of fun this year for Halloween. Allie and I went to maceys and bought halloween donuts. Trevor really enjoyed his. Then the family came over and we had dinner then went trick or treating. There was so much going on that I didn't get their pictures taken in their costumes until this morning. Allie was a mermaid all day long. She got it dirty so we dressed her in a fairy costume for trick or treating. Trevor was so cute in his lion costume. We had a little trouble when we lost his paw a couple of times in the dark and had to hunt it down. They got lots of candy. Trevor kept saying "mmmmmm" everytime he got candy from a house.

Halloween Treats

I made cupcakes for my coworkers for Halloween. I put gummy body parts in the center along with seedless raspberry jam. then I decorated the top to make it look like a mummy. It was fun to see the reactions.

"skelery"

We were at my neighbors house and as we were leaving this conversation came up:

Allie: Mom what is dat?
Mom: it is a skeleton
Allie: Oh it is a skelery
Mom: no, a skeleton. Skeletons are bones
Allie: We don't eat them mom
Mom: no we don't
Allie: Elmer (the dog) doesn't eat skeletons either. He eats dog bones.

She is so funny. I love it when she starts to learn new things.
