Pumpkin' Patch
I really couldn't get a great picture of the two of them, so here is the best attempt!
My man, with little miss! The expressions kill me :)
This year they had a gun that you could shoot corn out of. I thought Ethan would LOVE this, but really, not so much.
Now this was more like it . . . you could sling shot apples. That was more his style.
We even got to go for a tractor ride. Once again, the expressions on the kids faces are classic. Why can't they just smile for pictures?
Little miss LOVES apples.

Ethan not playing too nice with his little sister. He's blocking her from getting up the stairs. I guess we'll need to have a little chat about bullying.

Super Hero Day
Tomorrow is Super Hero day at our day care center. I thought this day would be an easy day for us considering that Ethan has worn his spiderman costume almost EVERY SINGLE DAY since Halloween last year. So, I thought it would be a no brainer . . . Ethan would go to school as spiderman, and be in good company with all the other kids in costumes.
Well, tonight I decided that Addy needed a costume too, so I whipped her up this wonder woman shirt.
Ethan asked what I was making for Addy, and I let him know that tomorrow was super hero day. He told me he needed to decide what to wear, because Spiderman is not a super hero. Are you kidding me??????? So, we argued about this for a while, and I decided this was pointless. Luckily we have a few other costumes laying around the house like Superman, Batman, and Buzz light year. I think he's decided to go as Buzz Light Year of all costumes. Oh well. We'll see what tomorrow brings.
