There went a month. What have we been doing? It's been a blur since Halloween. Have I ever mentioned we're a busy clan? I am on calendar overload. Tracking todos and engagements. Counting the days until Christmas. Yikes! Where to start... beep. beep. beep. let me back up a few weeks.
The Thursday before Halloween Tigger hopped all around with a ton of other neighborhood kids who paraded around the park. It was great to see so many families in the park.
Halloween night didn't disappoint either. We had a great time at the Bromley's block party, trick or treated and made it home in time to answer our own door several times. The Halloween "experience" was complete. Smile.
Toy Story has taken reign as our favorite movie, though Cars remain our favorite toys. At least two still go everywhere we go... G reports they have a "real" Buzz Lightyear at school which may be why we have had wonderful drop offs lately. No drama. All thumbs up from under his new regular "costume" of a baseball cap and sunglasses. Some days he's still wearing them both when I pick him up in the evening. Joe Cool.
The other thing he's wearing these days is underwear (not to be confused with panties - Deeda wants to be sure everyone knows that). After a couple accidents on the bulletproof sofa and several puddles on the floor, the child is proudly wearing underwear to school. We're not there yet but the progress is promising. Let's just say I am not buying the next batch of diapers at Costco (we're now card carrying members). I hope we don't need that many more.
G isn't the only one leaving puddles on the floor these days. Our old girl Dee has been diagnosed with cushings and we're struggling to get her condition under control with meds. In the mean time she's still regularly having accidents because the condition inspires her to drink a ton of water. We've been to and from the vet for many rounds of testing. Please keep our first child in your thoughts and prayers.
After a nightmare on Sunday night, stories of Monsters in his bedroom came home from school with G on Monday. Something has Mr. G spooked. Maybe it's because he got bit at school yesterday? Maybe he's heard me talking about vampires...
Who's excited for the Twilight movie to come out? Had to toss in that little note. Everyone knows this is my current "thing." Thanks to Nennie for the book that started the whole thing. I've always loved me a little "Goth."
