Halloween Pictures

I had been meaning to take Anna into Kiddie Kandids for the last couple of weeks. Now that Halloween is just around the corner, I finally made it. For some reason Anna recently decided that she likes her picture taken, which is okay by me. She did great, it only took a few minutes until we were done.

I had always liked Kiddie Kandids because they say you don't need an appointment. We went it at noon to get her picture taken and I had to make an appointment for 2:30...right in the middle of nap time. Now they are charging for everything. Not that I can really complain. I had printed off a coupon for a free 8x10, but now if you want an overlay they charge, they upped their price from $16 to $20 dollars a sheet, the lady said they charge for any option now.

Anyway, I am happy I finally got her picture, that she did great, it only took 15 mins from start to finish (once we went back for our apt.)

Weekend fun

We went to Leila's birthday party on Friday. It was a costume party for both the kids and adults. It turned out really cute. When I first got Anna's costume she wouldn't put it on for days. I had to bribe her and fight with her to get it on. Then we practiced trick-or-treating and she found out that she got candy for wearing it. This girl will do just about anything for candy. I would hide in the pantry and she would knock on the door and say trick-or-treat, I opened the door and gave her a treat. Now she loves it!!

Anna & Lizzie the two bee's of the party!

Last night we went to Whipperman's house where grandma was painting Loni's pregnant belly. Anna thought this looked like fun so Aunt Whitney painted Anna's belly.


Loni's finished product. Mom did a GREAT job!!
The two girls and their pumpkin bellys.

We are quickly running out of time to finish our summer projects (there are many). Shaun has been working hard on our deck. It was about to fall down if we didn't tear it down. We started from scratch and built it bigger. It's not done yet but already it is 100 times better then the old one. He screwed all the trex on this weekend. Hopefully this snow will stop and we can put the railing up.

Notice Anna pouting on the side she wasn't happy and she didn't want her picture taken.


I made Anna this apron and thought she would love it, well I was wrong. She put it on once for just a few minutes and will not put it on again. I chased her around the house trying to get her to put it on for a picture. She won and I took the picture of it hanging on the door knob.

This is what I got for trying to get her to put her apron on. She is actually really mad and crying!

More boogers?

The other night Shaun, Anna and I were sitting around the table. I noticed that Anna had a little booger sneaking out of her nose. I told Shaun to wipe it but in doing so he just wiped it down further (closer to her lip). I saw that it was still there and he went to get it again, but Anna got to it first. This is the first one (at least of my knowledge) that she has eaten. We usually make a big deal about them being gross and always going in a tissue. Shaun and I were dying that she had eaten it. Then she looks at us and says "more boogers, I want more boogers, yummy''. She kept repeating it so I grabbed my phone and tried to get it on video. It was too funny but also disgusting. As far as I know she hasn't had another one. Hopefully it was the first and last!

This is a really long video and I didn't know how to edit it, Sorry!
