HALLOWEEN

For Halloween my parents were down so we just had a little family party. I think all the kids had a pretty fun time. We tried to make home made root beer (it didn't taste very good though) It said on the back of the root beer bottle to put club soda in it. well I guess your not supposed to your just supposed to put the water, sugar and dry ice in. Oh well now i know for next time. Oh and I made my first pie ever. I made a sour cream apple pie. I'm not even a very big apple pie fan but it was pretty good. Jaden didn't really want to be Iron man but he did put his costume on for a few pictures. And Ashton (nikki's boy) wanted nothing to do with his green dragon costume he never even tried it on. So he and Jaden traded costumes so Jaden was Iron Man and a green dragon. And Jaxon didn't like the costume's I had for him either I had a lion or a dog they both had a hood on them and he hated that. but I did get a picture of him crying with the lion costume on. So he ended up being a red M&M. We didn't even go trick or treating. Brandon and I both had to work that day and after the party we were to pooped to take the kids out. But they didn't seem to mind to much. It makes me a little sad that people don't "trick or treat" anymore. Lots of people just go to the trick or trunk thing. I guess its a safer way. Its just sad that you can't trust what people are going to give your kids. Anyways i guess the kids have fun no matter what. Oh and one more thing that happened on Halloween. On an earlier post I told everyone about Jaxon losing my Credit, Debit card, and 60.00 in cash. Well I found it. Jaxon was getting into everything so i went to see what he was doing and he had pulled the drawer that's under the stove out. (you know how stove's have that compartment on the bottom of them?) anyways that's where i found my melted cards and my burned money just the corners of the money were burned so we were able to still use the cash. Anyways here's some pictures of our Halloween night.

Yay you found your money! THat's cool that you have a picture of your kids on your card-I didn't know you could do that.
Your Halloween looked fun! I agree with you though-the whole trunk or treat thing takes away from the whole door-to-door thing. Our ward did one on Halloween night so we had to pick a different neighborhood to go to. We actually went to your old neighborhood......

I didn't decided to try the potty thing until later that day after I'd talked to you. I wasn't expecting him to do so well, he can't communicate that well, so I didn't expect him to catch on so quickly. But we are in Day 3 now and he's still doing really well even with #2. He did poop a little in his pants yesterday, but it was right after he already did #2 in the toilet, I guess he didn't get it all out. (Is that why guys spend and hour in the bathroom? Because it comes in waves??? Who knows!) Anyways, I still haven't committed to admitting to myself that we are 'potty training' but this morning the 1st thing he did was take his diaper off and go to the bathroom in the toilet. I'm still surprised by the whole thing actually. I guess we'll see how it goes. Maybe that was a little too much info...

I love that song! Too bad you took it off, but I guess I wouldn't keep it on mine either.
So you have WEdnesday off too? Tuesdays are a nuthouse over here, but I'll call you tomorrow and see what you are doing. We at least should get together while the kids run around!

Potty training isn't going as well the past 4 days as it did the first 4. He lost interest, he'll still go in the toilet but only if he isn't busy doing something else. Oh well, I wasn't really ready anyways...if I could just get him to do #2 in the toilet I wouldn't even worry about the other. I hate changing poopies!
