Happy Halloween!

I just wanted to share some of our fun Halloween pictures with you all!

The day started with Todd taking these "Witches fingers" to work for a creepy Halloween lunch party. (They are actually cookies!)

Then Blaine and I stopped by Todd's office to check out all the costumes and creepy food. The 'Witches Fingers' were, by far, the scariest and most realistic looking food there.

Todd dressed up as an M&M. We made this costume a couple of years ago for a costume party!


This is Blaine with Laura, a co-worker of Todd's.


These are some of the people who dressed up for the party.

After Todd got home from work, we attempted to take some pictures of our three pumpkins together. Just so you know, it is virtually impossible to get two dogs and a baby to all sit still AND look at the camera at the same time. But, these were our best efforts!

I'm not sure why it looks like Blaine is constipated in these pictures!

After a short nap and some dinner, Blaine changed into his evening costume.........NEMO! This costume was given to us, and I thought it would be more comfortable for him to crawl around in while we were passing out candy to trick-or-treaters. However, we only had five trick-or-treaters, and they all came together!! SO...............if Todd and I are fat next time you see us, you'll know why!

Sweet Fish!


Surprised Fish!


Fish From the Back.


Silly Fish......Trying to be SCARY!

Happy Halloween!

It's 9:00pm; Where is Your Husband?

It's 9:00pm. The children have been put to bed, and the house is nice and quiet. Where is your husband? Winding down from a hard day in front of the television? In his recliner? Remote in hand, watching baseball or football, or perhaps he's flipping aimless through the channels.
NOT MY HUSBAND!! Nope! He's just getting started...........
Started doing what, you might ask.
Why, what else.........performing an autopsy on a fish, OF COURSE!! What else would a sensible man do when a fish dies? Certainly NOT simply flush it down the toilet!! The 'Mad Scientist' must discover the cause of this poor fish's untimely demise!
YES! He is somewhat disturbed! :)

Boy Meets Dog Bowl!

Blaine LOVES to play in the dog's food and water bowls. In fact, I have moved the dog's food and water bowls to a very inconspicuous place. My hope was that he wouldn't see them all the time, and thus wouldn't think about getting into them. WRONG!! Even though they are hidden out of plain sight, the little stinker still remembers where they are and goes for them every chance he gets! Yesterday morning I was cleaning the house, and Blaine was being most cooperative. I managed to sweep, vacuum, mop, and dust all before his morning nap. He jumped in his doorway jumper for the sweeping and vacuuming and played in the floor while I mopped and dusted. He even stayed out of my way and didn't get into anything! I was very impressed, as he usually wants to be right under my feet while I do these things. I had just finished with everything, and was putting something away when I realized he had disappeared. I figured he had probably gone to the dog food bowl, but I knew there wasn't any dog food in it. So, I wasn't too concerned. I finished what I was doing and walked into the den to find this...........



Apparently this high quality dog food bowl, purchased from the 'dollar spot' at Target, has a nice little black rim around it that when chewed on leaves nice black greasiness all over little boys!! SO........I just thought I was finished cleaning for the day!!

Mohawks and Bathtime!

Just thought I would share a few cute pictures..............

Blaine wanted to support the Tampa Bay Rays tonight, so he decided to sport a mohawk after his bath!

Here's the side view
This is a picture from when we were in Arkansas a couple of weeks ago.
Bathtime at Grammy's

Randomness

I know it has been entirely too long since I've posted an update. We all made a trip to Arkansas to visit family. Todd was able to join us for the trip but had to return a week before Blaine and I. We all had a nice visit, and thanks to Grammy's planning were able to get some really good pictures.
Daddy is being silly!

Here's our little Razorback......This is Uncle Greg's Razorback statue.

This is a tractor that Daddy and Uncle Greg played on when they were little boys.

Daddy was just playing with camera settings when he took this picture.

Fall is in the air......Not in Florida, but maybe somewhere~

Blaine continues to grow like a weed, and he is constantly on the move. He is such a busy little guy. As Todd says he likes to play with anything he thinks he's not supposed to play with. I pulled dog food out of his mouth too many times to count before finally moving the dog food to a different location. He is pulling up on EVERYTHING and has already taken a few spills. Here is a picture of one of his favorite things to do.

He loves to look out the sliding glass door. While he used to sit on the rug and look out, he has now figured out how to pull up on the door to see even more!!
