The sun is Shining!!

But WOW is it cold!! Last night it was SO COLD. I think there will be no more warm balmy days here anymore. Sun will be paired with brisk cold. Oh well, at least we have sweaters, and it sure is beautiful!

Halloween is coming. We're working on getting costumes for everyone and we're almost done. Isabelle will be a Pink Princess, Jade will be a Vampiress and I think Drake will be a Ninja. Still need to get one for Nicholas, but we do have his cow costume and Drake's old ninja costume we could use. I'm doubly excited for Halloween because we should get Isabelle's cast off.

Some very very nice friends of mine gave us some great clothes for the boys. Now I need to go take out at least an equal amount of their old clothes!!! I WILL declutter! We also got a HUGE bag of Rescue Heroes, so we'll purge some old toys too. Nicholas is building an army of Superheroes and Firemen I think. lol Hopefully he'll share one with Isabelle because I think she wants to play with him.

I can't believe it's already October 22. 3 more days till Isabelle's birthday and she turns ONE year old. Where did the last year go!? She finally started sitting up on her own and I think the cast actually helps her because it's so heavy, it helps hold her leg down. She's also trying so hard to crawl so I can't wait till it's off and we can catch her up on crawling.

Drake, he did SO good at his Tournament on Saturday. He placed 2nd and came home with a very cool silver medal. (Which he played with so much it broke off the ribbon. lol) I am SO proud of him, he went out there and he kept going till he got the point. It was his first tournament win, and his first tournament Ippon. :) His reward for getting up early and going there and doing his best is a Steak Dinner. (That's really what he wants!)So I think he'll get a date with Daddy to go have steak soon.

Gotta go to the post office today, I hope it's painless.
