halloween | potty | friends

Brace yourselves . . . this is some serious catching up.

Early in the week we went trick-or-treating at the mall with the Teodoros. Ted pieced together a Sheriff's costume from his dress up box and looked great doing it.



Way too many people. We won't do that again.

Friday, Stacy came to visit with Ben and Will. It was so wonderful.

We met Kristen and Michael at Chik-Fil-A. I do love that place.


After Sophie's nap, we rode the PRT and watched the Mountaineers loose.


Ted and Ben had a sleepover. I was shocked at how quickly they went to sleep and without even making a peep.

French toast for breakfast and then the Santen's headed home. It was a WONDERFUL visit. I'm so thankful that they made the trip.

So after naptime on Saturday, Sophie, Ben and I were snuggling on the couch. Next thing we know, Sophie took her diaper off and waddled (b/c her pants were down to her ankles) to the bathroom. She sat herself down on her frog potty and PEED IN THE POTTY. All on her own! It was glorious. She's continued today. So, I guess we're potty training.


As a result of her potty usage, Sophie got her beloved pillow pet. She and Ted played all day today with their pets.

So then it was off to trick-or-treat. While waiting for the Santen's on Friday. We discovered a package on the front porch for Ted. In it was his birthday present from Uncle Andy and Aunt Courtney. It was full of fun dress up stuff. One thing being a magicians hat. When Ted was deciding what to wear for trick-or-treat, we thought he could be a magician with his wedding suite. Hey, might as well get some more use out of it. Ben got him a the glow stick as a wand and some white gloves. It was great!


Sophie was Elmo. Ted wore Elmo on his first trick-or-treat ventures when he was two. We basically drove him all over town to friend's houses to visit. She couldn't have cared less.


We trick-or-treated with Skylar (purple dragon) and Eva (the fairy). A good time was had by all.


This was some kid. HILARIOUS!


We ended the evening with a spin around Kroger for a couple of things Ben needed. It was way too busy for them to push the little carts but we let them anyways. Not the best decision.



So, it was a great weekend. I'm tired! Videos to follow tomorrow! You're not going to want to miss them!
