a beautiful fall afternoon....

it is a beautiful fall afternoon, a bit windy but beautiful. we are playing outside because will refuses to take a nap. kate has had two naps today. will is currently standing on the patio table. kate is going in and out the play house.

a few minutes ago i was taking it all in, the weather, my beautiful kids, surfing the internet, my husband taking his normal sunday nap until..... i look up to see my adorable son kicking my beautiful daughter and then starting to choke her. i screamed and him to stop and then he promptly hugged her and then literally shoved her out the front door of the playhouse. i guess brotherly/sisterly love doesn't last long.

this is a pic from our annual visit to pumpkin town yesterday. it was also the famous ou/texas football game. kate wore burnt orange and will wore crimson. can you tell who dressed each child?

Holy naptime Batman!

here is a preview of will in his halloween costume. i bought it one saturday and he had to wear it right then. he has a great mask that he did decide to take off before his nap. lately nap time consists of mommy laying down with him and IF we are lucky he will actually fall asleep sometime. he insisted on wearing it, long sleeves and all and cover up with the down comforter for his nap. the weather outside was a nice high of 85 or so. very warm to be in a halloween costume. as you can tell, mommy got a nice 15 minute nap with him before i woke up covered in sweat from his little head. being the good mommy that i am (at least some time) i uncovered him and put the fan on him.



wait a few weeks and you will see the "real" batman on halloween and a little lady bug walking behind him.
