Random Things

I blogged every day this week and there is still so much more to say. Some weeks are like that and other weeks I can't think of a single thing to say.

I made shepard's pie one night. Giving the kids the beaters full of mashed potatoes earned me the title of "Best Mom Ever" according to Ben. Emily concurred. Who knew it was so simple?



Ben's preschool this week was a Halloween dress up party. Here are him and his friends.


Getting wrapped up to be a mummy.


Painting a pumpkin.


I've had these canvasses for about 6 months and I wanted to let the kids go to town on them. I never seemed to find the time. But, with early release for 3 days this week (due to parent teacher conferences), we took about 2 hours one afternoon and painted.


Here's Emily's masterpiece.


And Ben's.


Here they are hanging on 2 nails in my living room that were left there from last years Christmas wreaths!


Here's Noah napping this afternoon. There is just something so sweet about a baby all wrapped up in a white blanket sleeping.



Then he wakes up....
