Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!! We had a great Halloween this year with amazing weather. The boys loved dressing up and loved that Daddy did as well. This year we were all Super Heroes!! Vance was Spiderman, Kael was Buzz Lightyear and a pirate, Merek was Jack-Jack, Curtis was Wolverine, and I was Super mom. Vance thought it was the coolest time ever because he got to have a party at school and go trick-or-treating around the neighborhood while the little boys had to go to bed. Curtis talked everyone at work into dressing up as a Super Hero retirement home, hence the white hair and rainbow suspenders. We hope you all had a great time, I know we did!

Toss that bag
You can't see it but behind Vances head are three bowls and Kael had to guess which one had the candy under it. When she said where is the candy he pointed right to the big bowl of candy as you can see in this picture. SO FUNNY!!

Vances first day of School!

Today was the day! Vance started Kindergarten today and boy was he excited. He was so strong and sure. I am so proud of him and it always puts a moms mind at ease when their child is confident and happy to be at school. Of course I cried after I left the classroom but I didn't show him that. It reminded me of the day Vance went to nursery. He saw the door open and ran straight into the classroom without a backward glance. He will do great and I know that it is the right time for him to go. Time has flown by and I am sure it will continue to do so.

How soon it went from this to...
This!
Two brothers, one wants to be just like the other, can you tell?

So excited!
His backpack!
Two thumbs up lets go!
So sweet with little Merek.

This is a little backpack that they can open with their families picture in it in case they feel sad and miss us. Such a great idea!

He gave it me with a kiss and then.
Sat down to start his day!! So big. I love this kid.

Funny moments

Tonight we had several funny moments with the boys and I have to write them down or I will forget. We were in the van and the AC was on because it was pretty warm in the van and after a bit Vance says "Dad can you turn down the air because I am cold and there are things sticking out of my skin!" Curtis then said "Those are called goosebumps bud. Do you know why? Because when people would pull the feathers off of a goose the skin looks like it has bumps on it." Vance said "But dad I have never eaten a goose feather!" He was a little confused about it all but it sure was funny.

Later we were sitting on the lawn having a fun family dessert when Curtis said he was smelling something stinky. Vance immediately said "It's not me!" Curtis turns to Kael and says "Kael are you poopy?" and Kael says with "that" look on his face and says "No!" while he is filling his diaper. He continued to deny being poopy for the the next 20 minutes and wouldn't let us change him.

So Merek likes to suck his thumb when he is sleeping but has recently started sucking it in the middle of the day at random times. So I decided to put his thumb in my mouth when he tried to suck on his thumb. Well he just thought that was so funny and kept pulling it out of my mouth and sticking it back in. Then when I wasn't paying attention he tried to suck on his thumb while it was in my mouth! Slobbery little kisses. It was pretty cute.

The boys are just growing so fast and we are enjoying their sweet little personalities, for the most part! LOL
