Toddler Bed from H- - -

I needed help this morning! I got a toddler bed for Abby and was putting it together by myself, and lets just say, it wasn't going well. I was sweating and claustrophobic and I even cursed. Not a great mommy moment for me either. I took a break (after realizing that I put the railing I'd been struggling with on upside down) and decided I may not be able to do it myself. I decided to at least take it back apart (those stupid hexagon bolts and little wrenches are awful!) while trying not to hurt my raw hands anymore. I found some gumption and kept going from there. I finally did get it together after being inspired to tape all the slats together so I could get the other side on (there were all these dowels that had to fit in the tiny holes!). I really miss Josh. . .

Trick or Treating

Kitty and Unicorn all ready to go out!
I would stare too. . .

Alex was already gone in the previous photos, this one's from the church trunk or treat, Abby was a cheerleader (she refused to wear the other costume).

Halloween

We had a great Halloween. We started with Pumpkin carving and then we went to Cheeseburger Cheeseburger for lunch. We got dressed up and Alex went Trick or Treating with Ethan (AKA "neighbor"). I took Amber and Abby, but Amber found some friends and took off with them because Abby only made it to the end of the street. I got to carry her home. Alex and Amber Lee got a TON of candy (yay?)
