The Recap

I've noticed several blogs re-capping the past several weeks. I guess it's just getting to be that busy time of year. Here's what we've been up to.

Pumpkin Carving


Being that this was Will's first year for trick or treating, I thought we have him go as something he'd be comfortable with...a cowboy of course. I found an adorable horse costume to wear as seen here.



However, this was the only short lived moment that he wore it. Upon taking the costume off the hanger it looked less like a horse and more like a carcass which freaked a certain little boy out...hysterically. It took a week of coaxing to get him to wear it for all of five minutes. So, we called in the back up stick horse.

Will and I have begun a new routine. At nine o'clock sharp, we are in bed. I read a book and then I leave Will to read a book while I get ready to go "night night". It's working out rather nicely.


















Ever the entertainer, Will has begun taking a well deserved bow after each performance. I'm not sure where he picked it up, but I love it!



I will leave you with one of (my) life's little questions. As the weather turns cooler and we bundle our little ones up for a snuggley night's sleep, what is it about footie pajamas that inevitably result in out of diaper leakage?

I don't know about the diaper leakage, but as soon as I zip Libby up she informs me that she has to go to the bathroom... and then fusses at me because she doesn't want to take her "jammas" off to potty...too bad they don't still make them with the big bottom flaps!

We tried all kinds of stuff because whatever we tried it was always leaking... I have one still in night-time pull ups because he just sleeps so soundly he never wakes up to go potty. (But that's all he wears.)

I think there are really absorbent night-time diapers now for smaller children? Maybe he's getting bigger. Or drinking more fluids for dinner?
