I use to be so good at writing in my journal. Its been about 6 years. So today will be the day where I try again. There are a few new things going on in my life.
1. Halloween was so much fun. Madison was so in love with her costume she kept going around the house giggling. She wanted to be a princess for halloween, but I told her she dressed up everyday like a princess so she needed to pick something else. So she picked a fairy princess. That was a big enough difference for me. So fairy princess she was, and oh was she cute. Hudson had the choice between a monkey, a bat or a dragon. He picked the dragon. We had a few trial runs with him so he would think is was fun. He would run around the house growling at everyone. The day of, of course he didnt get a nap so he was not as excited as our trial runs. The kids got plenty of candy. Hudson just wanted to eat what was given to him right away. So I gave him a sucker and he was happy.
2. Thanksgiving.
Oh I am excited about turkey day. Two of my sisters are coming down with their kiddos and hubbys. This wil be my first family hosting function, plus my first Thanksgiving to make. My mother-in-law has done them for the past 5 years. :) So I will get to see my sisters, which is always a good thing. And I will get to make my house smell like Thanksgiving for the first time!
3. Today Madison decided to give herself a haircut. I thought I had been lucky and missed that fun adventure, but I guess not. I'm debating if I should just get it cut or not.... I think I can get away with comafologing most of it, except for the 1/2 inch bangs in the front. I really didnt know how to react. Should I laugh...so I told her we were going to get her hair cut like a boy, she did NOT like that idea.
My mom came down this past week. It was a suprise becuase it was a last minute thing. I love being able to get to see my mom, but to me I love that my kids get to spend time with their grandma. We went to a park hiked, had a picnic and then played at the playground. To me family is the most important thing you have, so any time together is amazing. Here are some pictures. Enjoy.
