Owen started preschool a couple weeks ago, which he loves & I love and everyone is so happy about. At his preschool they had a Halloween parade & little program & the kids got to dress up. Owen wanted to mix a few different costumes together so he was a race car driver with a cowboy hat & power ranger gloves.
Halloween-
Carving Pumpkins-
Owen designed his on his own. It was awesome.
Notice Ava's face- I told we would paint her face that night for Halloween so she decided to just take care of that on her own.
Halloween Night-
Ava wanted to be a purple butterfly. We went looking for a costume and found some cute ones but Ava was set on being a purple butterfly which luckily we found a pink & purple one. It was fun she knew exactly what she wanted.
Isaac was a cute little robot.
Excited for the big night.
Ava totally got into the trick-or-treating this year and LOVED it. She has a big sweet tooth so it was pretty much a great night. The next day she asked me if we could go trick-or- treating again.
We tried a different method this time with candy- instead of regulating what & when they ate their candy they pretty much could do whatever they wanted. Luckily we really didn't get that much candy so that could work. Ava loved it. There was a few highs & lows on Sunday but now she's done with her candy and we don't have to worry about it. Owen still has some and lucky for Ava has been nice to share.
We decided to let the boys just regulate themselves this year, and it worked out fine. Captain America ate a bunch of his, but then threw the rest away, even though there was still good stuff in it. Weird. It's nice to have it all gone.
Darling kids! I really like your new method, and though we tried a rendition of it, we just have way too dang much candy. So, I think I'm going to let them eat a bucket-load of it tomorrow, and then throw everything else away. 'Cause seriously, if I hear "Mom, I think I'm a little hungry for a treat," one more time...
