Halloween

My girls love to dress up!  It's always a chore to figure out what they'll be though. At school they usually have to be a storybook character, and then sometimes they change their mind for the real thing.  We had it all figured out.  Landrie would be Bindi Irwin (think zookeeper/vet) and Karsyn decided on Repunzel.   Easy enough until we get a note home from Landrie's teacher that the 2nd grade is supposed to dress up as people from Ancient Greece...really?  They sent home a pattern and everything! 

Our Greek Godess Landrie

Beautiful Rapunzel ~ Karsyn was the Super Kid for the week, so she was the line leader for her class.

For Halloween night, the girls changed costumes.  Landrie went with her original idea of being Bindi/a vet, and Karsyn decided to be one of Landrie's patients - a cat!  We went to Pop's and Lolly's house to eat dinner and be part of the parade in the neighborhood.  After the parade, we headed to church to meet up with our friends for lots of fun, games & candy.

...Anyone there...???

This blog has been so neglected lately!  I was doing well writing pregnancy updates every 4 weeks, but then I was bored with it, so I'm sure my few readers were bored too.

I could update about Landrie's b-day---Holy cow, she's 8!  Makes me feel so old!

And then there's both girls taking dance for the first time!  Karsyn is a prissy ballerina and tap dancer, and Landrie is a cool hip-hopper! They both love it, and that makes me so happy! 

We can't forget Ryan either!  He's going to be here in about 6 weeks!  This truly has flown by!  I finally painted his room and began the decorating process.  And he has a crib now, so at least he's got a place to sleep. 

I had my first baby shower this morning.  It was so nice and Ryan was definitely spoiled!  He's going to be one well-dressed little boy!

So there's a quick update!  I'll try to write actual posts with pictures this week or maybe later tonight.  Lamar is at his 4th football game this week!  And along with playoffs, 8th grade basketball will be starting soon.  That means he'll be gone morning and night.  Ugh!  But that's the way things go...
