We're Grandparents!

Trust me, we too almost had a heart attack when Cori told us this. Cori had a project for school where she had to take care of a hollow egg for a week. She gave him a face and pom-pom hair. She had to carry him to every class and home again each day. She named her "child" Zane. Notice the bandaid on him, he had a couple by the end of the week. She carried him around in a tupperware container on a stack of tissue paper with the lid snuggly on. I guess the teacher didn't care if the babies could breathe. It was a fun assignment for her. The project is nothing like having a real screaming baby cry in the middle of the night, oh wait, she experiences that too.

Just because

Who doesn't like spaghetti faces?

Halloween

Oh goodness, how busy we have been. I am the farthest behind on our blog yet, we've only passed two holidays since our last post! Don't fail me now memory.

Halloween was a so much fun for all of us this year! Cori dressed up as a pirate and looked oh too cute. She went begging for candy with a few of her friends. Bryson loved dressing up as the super-hero Batman. He ran fast through the yards in our neighborhood, trick-or-treating but he stopped cautiously when he got two feet in front of someone. He wasn't too interested in getting candy if it meant he had to get too close to funny dressed strangers in the night. By the time he realized that he was supposed to go up to everyone's front doors, he then attempted to go to front doors of people that were obviously not at home. Both the kids really had a blast. Once we got back home, Bryson got his first (and only for the year) Halloween treat, a Dum Dum sucker. We were only planning on letting him have it for a few minutes because we didn't want him to have the whole thing. Well, it doesn't take long for a toddler to scarf down and Dum Dum and it is harder to take candy from a baby then the saying goes. So he ate the whole thing and somehow managed to still fall asleep that night.

We took the kids to a friend's house for a Kid's Halloween Party a few days prior. Cori helped with coordinating games for the little ones. She was a big help! Then the kids all took a hayride also. Can you spot Cori and Bryson? Here are some pictures from that day.
