A GREAT Halloween Week

I know its not halloween yet, but for us we already had our halloween party. Its been such a FUN week! It really feels like fall and I am actually kind of enjoying the rain (for the moment). I think one reason why I love the rain lately is because claire loves playing in the puddles so much and standing in the rain... She giggles when she gets wet. Its so cute! Some friends gave us these rubber boots and she wears them ALL the time now! 



She is so cute!



Scotts getting close to crawling... He doesn't have it yet but he is sooo close. 


 On tuesdays we watch Johnny. Its so fun. These 2 are so cute together. They play so well together. They shut themselves in claire's room and play and if I try and go in to check on them claire says "no mom!" and shuts the door. ohh boy!


We've been trying to do fun things. This week we played with a bowl of dried beans and measuring cups!


This week we had a halloween party with some friends. It was a lot of fun. The kids were pirates.


This is claire saying "aaarrrgggg."


Here is our little pirate. I think he fits the role very well! 


For the party I made a this pumpkin cheesecake with praline topping. Yummy! I will be making this again. 


We also went to the pumpkin patch. It was fun. We just got a couple little pumpkins this year.


Im not a big fan of carving pumpkins and didn't feel like the mess so we colored the pumpkins this year! It was so much fun. Claire loved it more than i thought she would.




The week ended with the best day ever. 


We had a yummy breakfast as a family. 

We went to the duck game together. Which ended up being a BLAST. Claire had so much fun. She yelled "go ducky" and ran around the whole time. She was so cute and even the camera man came over and got some video of her. She was so cute waving at the camera man. Claire even got to see the ducky himself! The highlight of her day. 



Cheering for the "ducky ooootballll".  


After the game we had an awesome lunch. Including yummy frosty's! the kids took AWESOME naps! (like i woke claire up from her nap at 6pm) WOW! 

That night we had a movie party night and watched the Lorax on the couch cushions on the living room floor and Made chocolate chip cookies... Which scott really enjoyed!


Then claire went to bed and we changed Scotts contact! (the first time we have gotten it out without a doctors help!) 


And the night ended with us finding our TV remote which has been lost for a year! What a great day. Thanks rich!
