Halloween

Lucy took her ladybug costume with her for the party, but I couldn't resist dressing her up for the day as well!

Mrs. Stangenes...what happened to you?

I hope I don't scare my kids too much! We have a parade through our school and it's going to be so fun because they won't know who I am!

The excitement is building!

Lucy will be having a "party" at daycare tomorrow. Mary and her neighbor Cindy, who also does daycare, get all the kids together with costumes and treats. We carved our pumpkins tonight. Lucy did not want to participate in the scooping out of all the yucky stuff. She said something cute tonight for the first time. I was looking for a pair of kitty ears for one of my students to wear tomorrow. Lucy said, "I'll look for them...don't worry." We'll definitely post some ladybug pics tomorrow night! Safe trick-or-treating to all!!!

Olive You!

Olives at dinner, olives on the way to daycare! She puts them on her fingers and counts them as she eats them.

Cousins

We were very excited to have Janey stay with us for a couple days last week. Janey came with a shirt that Lucy had so I dressed them alike. They were not very thrilled with our ice skating adventure, but eating the "snow" was fun. Even though they only lasted about 15 minutes(and it took longer than that to get them ready) it was worth it. They were so cute!

Autumn Fun!

Lucy is enjoying fall and playing in the leaves. Another week and we'll be able to make a huge pile to jump in! She thinks the house around the corner with all the Halloween stuff is pretty cool.
