Such A Boy

After dropping Bug of at preschool this morning, T-man and I decided to go to the store on our never ending quest to find irish cream flavoring here in Omaha for some yummy hot chocolate. When we pulled into HyVee, T-man was very quick to spot the activity accross the street..CONSTRUCTION. I couldn't pass up letting him watch with as facinated with construction machinery as he's been, so I walked him over so we were just across the street from the construction. We sat there for about ten minutes just watching the digger dig it's hole, the bulldozer push dirt around, and the man on the roof walking around "really high in the air." T-man had a blast watching all the action, and it was just as fun for me to watch him! Random worthwhile stuff like this just makes my day. I'm glad we caught this on camera!

Trick-Or-Treat

Halloween was definately a success in many different ways. I successfully completed the rediculously frustrating dragon costume for T-man, we successfully handed out all the candy we cleaned out of our cupboards (don't worry it wasn't old...it just needed to LEAVE. We had so much we didn't even need to buy any UGH)..and the kids successfully brought more candy back home! SO... T-man got pretty excited about his dragon costume and was thrilled to show off his tail to anyone who even mentioned it. Bug was a princess and she thought it was pretty cool that I actually let her wear make up. We had several different halloween events, so here's a compilation of pictures through out the week, and again, they aren't in chronological order. There's alot. I'm sorry. They're just too cute not to post.
T-man didn't want to walk around the neighborhood, and I refused to carry him, so this was our compromise. He would go to the door to trick-or-treat, come back, stand in front of the stoller, wait for me to lift him in (because his tail was too big that he couldn't do it himself) and then he would patiently hold his tail in his lap until we got to the next door. It was hilarious!

LOOK AT HER!!! SHE'S FOUR!!! What the heck am I going to do when she's 16? YIKES!!!
note to self...ban Bug from make-up til she graduates...Highschool, that is!!!
Me and T-man before we went out trick-or-treating. I'm just glad to be done making that thing!!!

Grandpa made the blog! He decided to wear T-man's dragon hat and T-man thought that was hilarious!
Bug and T-man stopping long enough for me to take a picture at the Ward Trunk-or-Treat

In the process of getting his dragon costume on. (Chili was served for dinner and I would have gone ballistic if any spilled on his costume, so he wasn't allowed to wear it until all food was put away..lol)
The Chili Queen. She ate all her chili without spilling any on her dress..WOHOO ( I obviously didnt' care as much about her dress...lol. She's about to outgrow it anyway. )

Official picture with the pumpkins. We go them in their PJ's and then realized we forgot to take pics, so we just went outside and took them.
