Where The Wild Things Are


Howling at the moon.

Let the wild rumpus start! I dusted off the old sewing machine and put it to good use. Pierce is very excited about the new Where The Wild Things Are movie that is coming out next week. This is one of his favorite books. I found the cutest pattern for a Max costume (the main character in the movie, for those who are not up to date on their preschool books). I am still working on the rest of the costume, but the hat turned out adorable.


My First 5k!




I can proudly say that I have completed my first 5k. It was by no means an award winning effort (34:03), but it was a huge accomplishment for me.
Chad came along to cheer me on and I think he got just as much of a workout as me. He was carrying Asher in the backpack and carrying Pierce when he got too poky. They met me at the start, at the 1/2 mile and at the finish line (that was a lot of walking with 2 kiddos).
Note to self: Before you run a 5k
1. Don't drink 2 cups of caffeinated coffee
2. Don't expect to have enough time to wait in the ENORMOUS line for the porta potties.

My Little Warlocks




Oooh the cute things you can find on the Target $1 shelf! Look at my little warlocks getting all ready for Halloween.

Shining Happy People

Well folks, we have our first shiner. It turns out that Pierce's new game, "catch the boy in the sleeping bag", is a little dangerous. You'll be glad to hear that the granite countertop came out unscathed.
Just a little smile!

I love tickles from my brother!


AWWWWW!
