The Obligatory Halloween Post

Happy Belated Halloween! I hope everyone had a great weekend, and has thrown all of their candy away!! That's the only way I can control myself. Seriously.

We had a really fun night on Friday, the neighborhood organized a costume/pizza party and parade from 4:45-5:45...it was perfect for our little ones...they had fun and afterwards we hit just a few houses and they were happy campers!

Here's our little ladybug...swollen cheeks and all...poor Addy is teething really, really bad right now...she's always been such a trooper, I think these are the first teeth to really bother her...or maybe she's just able to vocalize better to tell us what's wrong? Who knows, but she has been a wreck since mid-week...I think she's coming around now. One of my favorite parts of the night was Addy carrying her pumpkin bucket around and swinging it over her shoulder like a purse...and somehow the pumpkin face always seemed to be pointed the right way...she is that GOOD at being a little priss.

Chase as Thomas the Train, of course...he looks a little gangster with his hat popped up like that but the visor was getting in the way...haha. He even had a Thomas T-Shirt on underneath...shocker...AND a Thomas candy bucket. Right before we took this picture he was giving Addy a hug and telling her what a beautiful lady bug she was (NOT EVEN KIDDING...he's such a sensitive little ladies man...already. YIKES) PS: Not to be fooled...he is almost 3 and on everyone's last nerve...trust me! ;o)

Hanging out at the playground before the parade...there were a zillion kids there, Chase was freaking out yelling at all of the kids to get off of his slide...we need to work a bit on the whole sharing thing, haha. Here's Chase leaning in for the photo op...and Addy worried that Chase was going to take her beloved pizza crust.

Addy's like...Whew, I'm glad that's over...Brother, come that close again and I'll bite you...I'm teething, remember!!?!?!?

Addy...STILL holding on to the pizza crust...she carried it around for over an hour, no joke...at one point it ended up in her pail...Bruce and I snuck it out and he chucked it when she wasn't looking.

Last but not least, the family picture...both kids were over it by then! Chase was panicking b/c his candy bucket was down by my feet and he was worried some kids were going to come by and take his hard-earned candy.
