halloween

I'm a few days late with the Halloween pictures, but life is a little hectic these days.  Sometimes I honestly think I'm crazy for going along with the tedious job of selling our house.  It's been on the market now for three whole months.  I think we've had about 20 viewings which means we've cleaned the house that many times, loaded up the van with all of the lose ends, packed up the kids and headed out with our hearts on a string......  It's a pain in the butt, BUT we're still going for it.  This will be the last month and if nothing happens we're ready to throw in the towel and be content where we are.  Fingers crossed.  

As we drive away before a viewing I always say, 'Good luck house".  Ruby echoes the sentiment and has even started wishing the house good luck randomly on her own sometimes.  It's pretty cute.  

So... back to Halloween.... 

Hurricane Sandy blew by early in the day on Halloween leaving us with a pretty mild afternoon and perfect evening for Trick or Treating.  We actually went trick or treating this year and Ruby had fun.  It was so nice to see her discovering what Halloween is all about.  When we got home she helped Ryan hand out treats to the big kids while I got Leo to sleep.  

Look how old Leo looks!  He's 4 months old.  I can't believe how fast time is flying.  It seems to be going faster this time around.  Possibly because I'm super busy with two kids and possibly because I'm super tired.  I couldn't remember how to spell the word "pretty" the other day.  I had to use a thesaurus to search for a synonym of 'beautiful'.    My brain is mush.  But, this too shall end.   Before too long it'll all be a blur. I'll be enjoying 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep again.... someday.... 

Until then, these cuties keep me going.  :)
