Happy Halloween!

We had a great halloween. I was concerned that it would be really cold like last year (we've had snow 3x already) but, it ended up being a very nice day. Isaac could hardly wait. Though we had an idea what the kids costumes would be I didn't get around to it until the night before. I ran to goodwill and luckily was able to find a red and orange plaid shirt and overalls, and found a bonus pair of workboots for Isaac. He really got into his role as Bob the builder. When he first got dressed up Brett took him into the bathroom and had him stand on the tub to see himself in the mirror. Brett recently ripped out all our tub surround tile. Isaac checked himself out then touched the wall and said "I think I'll fix this".
Amelia enjoyed her flower costume at short intervals, not really enjoying it as I tried to apply makeup (as evident by her crazy face). She did tell people that she was a "pitty flower". They both has great fun running from house to house. Infact if the door didn't open fast enough Amelia would yell "come out". Fun times.
Sorry if this doesn't make sence but, I don't have time to do any editing and I've been called away twice since starting. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

Kids say the funniest things

I've been sitting at the computer doing a little online window shopping while Isaac and Mimi play in the other room (which is so wonderful when it happens). Isaac is playing with his blocks and Amelia did something apparently she wasn't supposed to (I didn't quite catch what) and then I hear Isaac say "Amelia, no! You go tell your mother about this." I about died laughing. It reminded me of this morning when Amelia and I were at Ikea (Isaac was in the playroom, hurray for Ikea) I reached out to touch something and Amelia prompting said "No-no, no touching momma". She continued to do this everytime I touched something, much to the delight of those around us. I finally did as I was told and stopped touching. Kids - so funny. I can't wait until Christmas when we have a whole house full of toddlers, should be very entertaining.

Thought I would quickly add a few new photos and videos (thanks Jamie). The first is Amelias first time in pigtails. Yes they are alittle small but, her hair has grown enough to almost style it. Note all of her teeth.
The second photo is of all the items the plumber found in our toilet, yes our toilet. Isaac thought he would see what could go down that fun drain hole. Apparently, one large blue comb, a tube of toothpaste, a childs toothbrush and a foam sanding block all will make it through. Amazing.
I also added a few videos now that I know how to do it. One is Isaac biking around our house. He can go in circles for an hour. Brett discovered that Amelia likes to share in the action as well. I love it, keeps them busy.
The last two videos are of Amelia being silly. She has begun to ask us to "watch this" and will show us something she has been trying out, such as strange sounds. Notice that she is watching t.v. part way through and forgets what she is doing, also that she hits the camera at the end. Too funny.
The second is Amelia singing her favorite song. I'm not quite sure what happended at the end but, I thought it was pretty fun. Enjoy.
