Halloween went off without a hitch, despite Miller's fever. She had a blast trick or treating with her brother, his friends, and Charlie.
Have you ever seen a sweeter kitty?
Or a tougher ninja?
Yikes! Who is that?
Much better.
Me and my sweet girl.
Daddy went to K-mart on Halloween day to pick out his costume. Apparently Satan was the only thing left.
A few days ago, I accidentally shut (sort of) Miller's finger in the car door. It was swollen and a little purple, so I decided to take her to the emergency room rather than the pediatrician's office just to be safe. By the time she got there, her Motrin had kicked in and she was feeling pretty good. She quite enjoyed her visit. The nurses showered her with attention, brought her orange juice, and let her pick out three stickers that she stuck to the front of her dress. Nothing was broken and we were in and out in about an hour. Not bad! (But I'd rather not go back any time soon...)
Colby's school does a Kindergarten book parade, where the kids dress up like their favorite book character and march around the school. Colby sort of worked backwards- he decided he wanted to wear his Storm Trooper costume, so he hunted down a book that had a picture of a storm trooper in it. (not exactly his favorite book, which was sort of the point....oh well) I was told that as his class paraded in and out of the other classrooms, the kids in the classrooms started to sing the Darth Vader tune. Apparently it was a very popular costume.
Finally, it was time to tell the kids about their Disney trip. I wrapped up the t-shirts I had made and told them they had to open the gift and figure out what it said. (I have it all on video)
Not a great picture, but you can see the shirts- they say "We're going to Disney World" and then have their names at the bottom. It took them both about 10 seconds to read them. Miller was very excited. Colby was excited for a second and then asked if we could go buy a toy.
We leave in just 3 days!!!
