Hoppy Halloween

This year Cody was a frog and Macey was a princess fairy. We went to our ward party-it was so fun and well planned! Cody almost fell asleep on our way there and was a little overwhelmed at first, but once he figured out that everyone was just waiting to give him candy, he warmed right up! We had 'eyeball spaghetti' for dinner. At the party there were cute carmel apple hoer d'erves (I have no idea how to spell that) that were on toothpicks...what a great idea! Annie who is not unlike Martha Stewart made them; they're family is pictured above as the cat in the hat (the baby is the fish in the bowl:)). So cute!
My only regret is that we didn't get a picture with our whole family. I didn't dress up, but got some pj pants from Old Navy with little ghosts on them for $2 that I wore-better than nothing- and someone even commented that Ben was dressed up as a cowboy...but that was just Ben as himself, wrangler jeans, wrangler shirt, boots and all:).
On an unrelated note, I feel busier than when Macey was a newborn. Cody doesn't take naps (and his 'quiet time' is not all that quiet) and Macey sleeps less now. That, and always being on guard so Cody doesn't have an accident, makes me feel like I can't do a lot. In fact, working around children while I blog is ca-razy. But really, I am a mom, that's what I do! I just want to learn how to SEW:)

I totally feel your pain. I run around crazy all day, am exhausted at the days end, look back and realize I have accomplished NOTHING! Oh well, I guess we have fun along the way :) The kids looked so cute. Glad you had a Happy Halloween :) Congrats on the potty training! It is such a pain....
